What to verify next

- Call back on the number on file, (716) 275-7712, not a number from an email or load board.
- Check that the MC number you were given is FF58974, and that you are dealing with this company record (see the risk summary above).
- MC1533165 is listed on this record but filed under USDOT 4048826. If you were given that number, check that company instead.
- Ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
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.

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 New York average covers 36,520 vehicle and 57,868 driver inspections of all New York-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

Crashes Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026

Questions about BUFFALO GROUP FREIGHT FORWARDING LIMITED
What does BUFFALO GROUP FREIGHT FORWARDING LIMITED's operating authority allow?

Which information about BUFFALO GROUP FREIGHT FORWARDING LIMITED is old or missing?

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 The MCS-150 was last updated Mar 22, 2023, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
