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 Florida average covers 69,903 vehicle and 132,326 driver inspections of all Florida-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 MELUM FREIGHT SERVICES INC

What does MELUM FREIGHT SERVICES INC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for MELUM FREIGHT SERVICES INC (MC1334288), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about MELUM FREIGHT SERVICES 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. 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 The MCS-150 was last updated Nov 20, 2023, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking MELUM FREIGHT SERVICES INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3754705. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (305) 590-1049, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1334288, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
