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 33,269 vehicle and 59,642 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 ↗

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the Alabama column is the mix across all Alabama-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 SOUTHERN SHAVINGS LLC
What does SOUTHERN SHAVINGS LLC's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for SOUTHERN SHAVINGS LLC (MC1416838), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about SOUTHERN SHAVINGS 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. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. 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 SOUTHERN SHAVINGS LLC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3044024. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (334) 484-9670, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1416838, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
