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.

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 Illinois average covers 195,384 vehicle and 387,932 driver inspections of all Illinois-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 G COOPER OIL COMPANY INC

What does G COOPER OIL COMPANY INC's operating authority allow?

MC1193824: Contract carrier (may haul regulated property for hire under continuing contracts with specific shippers).

Which information about G COOPER OIL COMPANY INC is old or missing?

Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. Insurance filings are from the same May 14, 2026 snapshot. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.

What should I verify before booking G COOPER OIL COMPANY INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 659093. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (815) 469-6951, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1193824, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
