FreightValidate is a Carrier & Freight Broker Identity Verification and Vetting System for Shippers, Freight Brokers, Load-boards and factoring companies to use to help in verifying entities that are in compliance with regulations and identifying past, present or potential fraudulent or double brokering threats.
For any Carrier or Broker to be "FreightValidated" they must have active Motor Carrier Authority & DOT Number that has been in effect for more than 30 days, (not pending cancellation), have a verified Principal Place of Business (no post office boxes etc), must not have been blocked by other companies or have any reports of fraud or double broker activity.
Based on several verification datapoints, Carrier & Brokers MC number information will be either “Validated”. or “Not Validated”.
Carriers and Brokers may also receive a “Warning “ Or Caution if there are reports of fraudulent actually or blocks by 3 or more companies
This tool is NOT intended to replace 3rd Party Carrier Verification, Monitoring or Evaluation companies as we do not report on matters of carrier safety compliance, inspection results, driver fitness or mechanical inspection results-
We highly recommend that all carriers be thoroughly vetted for compliance, safety history, etc, beginning with FreightValidate and continuing the process in vetting the carrier through companies like www.MyCarrierPackets.com or the Company’s Compliance Department protocols
