Bond & 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.

"Replaced" means a new filing took over the day the old one ended. "Cancelled" means the insurer or the company ended the policy; if no replacement was filed in time, the company was uninsured with FMCSA in between.

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.

Questions about CARRIAGETOWN SPECIALIZED TRANSPORTATION INC

Is CARRIAGETOWN SPECIALIZED TRANSPORTATION INC a broker or a carrier?

CARRIAGETOWN SPECIALIZED TRANSPORTATION INC is a freight broker with no active authority to haul freight itself. It may arrange loads with authorized carriers, but should not be dispatching its own trucks under this docket. Brokers must keep $75,000 of financial security (a BMC-84 bond or BMC-85 trust fund) on file with FMCSA.

What does CARRIAGETOWN SPECIALIZED TRANSPORTATION INC's operating authority allow?

MC246133: Broker (may arrange transportation by other authorized carriers, but may not haul the freight itself under this authority).

Which information about CARRIAGETOWN SPECIALIZED TRANSPORTATION INC 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 The MCS-150 was last updated Feb 5, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking CARRIAGETOWN SPECIALIZED TRANSPORTATION INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 457380. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (413) 467-1700, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC246133, and ask for proof of the broker bond or trust fund (BMC-84/85) of $75,000.
