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 18, 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.

How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 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 New Jersey average covers 63,084 vehicle and 96,072 driver inspections of all New Jersey-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 HOOK EXPRESS CORP

What does HOOK EXPRESS CORP's operating authority allow?

MC1383967: Motor carrier (may haul regulated property for hire).

Which information about HOOK EXPRESS CORP is old or missing?

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 The MCS-150 was last updated Oct 15, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking HOOK EXPRESS CORP?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3822928. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (732) 306-4798, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1383967, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
