What is a Trucking Authority?

A Trucking Authority is permission from the government to haul loads commercially for hire. There are two main pieces of your trucking authority: a USDOT Number and MC Number. You need your trucking authority if:

  • You want to start your own trucking company
  • You want to become an owner operator
  • You want to become a broker

You’ll also need your BOC-3 process agent filing and make sure your company can pass a new entrant safety audit.

A Trucking Authority is often called an Operating Authority or Motor Carrier Authority, these are all equivalent to to the process of getting federal licensing. DOT and MC numbers are required to operate a for-hire trucking company that travels in or through more than one state.
