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.

Source: FMCSA Motus · Oct 19, 2026. Identical filings repeated in the FMCSA data are shown once; a filing listed under two dockets is one policy, not extra coverage. Coverage is the maximum amount filed with FMCSA, not the full policy.

Confirm current filings: Motus record ↗ and ask the insurer for a certificate naming you as holder.

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 Ohio average covers 110,540 vehicle and 182,379 driver inspections of all Ohio-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

Questions about S-W MILLS INC

What does S-W MILLS INC's operating authority allow?

MC215183: Motor carrier (may haul regulated property for hire).

Which information about S-W MILLS INC is old or missing?

There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate.

What should I verify before booking S-W MILLS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 349179. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (419) 445-5206, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC2151 or MC215183, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
