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: amount not published.

Roadside inspections Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026
No roadside inspections in this period.
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 Indiana average covers 61,543 vehicle and 111,154 driver inspections of all Indiana-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
No violations recorded in roadside inspections in the last 24 months.
Crashes Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026
No reportable crashes in this period.

Questions about TOWNE INTERNATIONAL FORWARDING INC
What does TOWNE INTERNATIONAL FORWARDING INC's operating authority allow?
FF339: Contract carrier (may haul regulated property for hire under continuing contracts with specific shippers).
Which information about TOWNE INTERNATIONAL FORWARDING INC 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. 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. The MCS-150 was last updated Aug 5, 2019, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
What should I verify before booking TOWNE INTERNATIONAL FORWARDING INC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3247182. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (317) 849-7900, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches FF339 or FF31071, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
Other companies using (317) 849-7900
A shared number is common for related companies, dispatch services and family businesses. It is not proof of fraud, but it is worth knowing which company you are dealing with.
