Green means the FMCSA record shows it. It does not confirm who you are talking to, or that a policy covers your specific load.

Not a live check. FMCSA has not published a Motus record for this carrier, so authority and insurance show the last known status from May 14, 2026. Confirm on Motus ↗ before booking.

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. No cargo cover filed with FMCSA.

How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Alabama average covers 33,234 vehicle and 59,607 driver inspections of all Alabama-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile ↗ · SAFER snapshot ↗

Questions about CULLMAN PETROLEUM LLC

What does CULLMAN PETROLEUM LLC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for CULLMAN PETROLEUM LLC (MC14877), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about CULLMAN PETROLEUM LLC is old or missing?

Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. Insurance filings are from the same May 14, 2026 snapshot. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.

What should I verify before booking CULLMAN PETROLEUM LLC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 2845457. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (256) 287-1034, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC14877, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
