Power units: 3

2 tractors · 1 straight truck

14 power units declared on the MCS-150. Inspections see only part of a fleet, so fewer here is normal; many more can mean the registration is out of date.

Trailers: 2

2 semi-trailers

Mack 1

Includes trailers the company pulled but does not own, such as shipper or leasing trailers.

Shippers named on inspection reports 24 months

How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 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 Washington average covers 48,830 vehicle and 83,369 driver inspections of all Washington-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

Violations in FMCSA's SMS last 24 months

5 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 1 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.

Why is this different from the 9 violations above?

The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 2026 window. The SMS count comes from FMCSA's own monthly SMS snapshot, which uses its own 24-month window and only the violations it scores. Both are FMCSA figures; they measure different things.

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the Washington column is the mix across all Washington-based carriers, so you can see which kinds of problems stand out. A high count partly reflects fleet size and how often trucks are inspected.

Questions about Wilkins Kaiser & Olsen Inc

What does Wilkins Kaiser & Olsen Inc's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for Wilkins Kaiser & Olsen Inc (MC249218), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about Wilkins Kaiser & Olsen Inc 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. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate.

What should I verify before booking Wilkins Kaiser & Olsen Inc?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 302934. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (509) 427-8413, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC249218, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
