Outside the states on the map

Data: the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's daily Motus files on data.transportation.gov (), a US government work. Only docket and USDOT numbers, the kind of authority, its status and the state of its business address are read: no names, addresses, phone numbers or emails. Map: Natural Earth (public domain).

What is counted: operating authorities (an MC, FF or MX docket), not companies; one company can hold several. Since FMCSA's Motus system went live on 19 May 2026. The state is that of the business address on file today. FMCSA sometimes acts in batches (on 27 October 2026 it suspended 1,919 household goods movers in one day); such days show as they are.

This is a snapshot of FMCSA's public files, for information only. FMCSA's own records are authoritative: check a carrier at SAFER.
