Bond & insurance on file

Liability (BI&PD) pays for injury and damage to other people and property; it does not cover the freight. Cargo insurance covers the freight. FMCSA only requires cargo filings from household goods carriers and freight forwarders, so most carriers file none: ask for a cargo certificate that fits your load. Cargo cover filed: $5,000.

Questions about AMERICAN INTERCOASTAL MOVERS INC

Is AMERICAN INTERCOASTAL MOVERS INC a broker or a carrier?

AMERICAN INTERCOASTAL MOVERS INC is a freight forwarder with no active authority to haul freight itself. It may arrange loads with authorized carriers, but should not be dispatching its own trucks under this docket. Brokers must keep $75,000 of financial security (a BMC-84 bond or BMC-85 trust fund) on file with FMCSA.

What does AMERICAN INTERCOASTAL MOVERS INC's operating authority allow?

FF871: Freight forwarder (may assemble and consolidate shipments and arrange their transportation, taking responsibility for them).

Which information about AMERICAN INTERCOASTAL MOVERS INC is old or missing?

MC871, filed under another USDOT, is shown with its last known status from May 14, 2026. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe. The MCS-150 was last updated Oct 4, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking AMERICAN INTERCOASTAL MOVERS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 281869. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (915) 615-0827, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches FF871, and ask for proof of the broker bond or trust fund (BMC-84/85) of $75,000.

Other companies using (915) 615-0827
