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 Kentucky average covers 21,759 vehicle and 38,047 driver inspections of all Kentucky-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 MONTGOMERY EXCAVATING LLC

What does MONTGOMERY EXCAVATING LLC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for MONTGOMERY EXCAVATING LLC (MC993990), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about MONTGOMERY EXCAVATING LLC is old or missing?

Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. No insurance filings were found in the public data. 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 MONTGOMERY EXCAVATING LLC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 2939843. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (606) 497-6848, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC993990, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
