FMCSA New Trucking Company Leads: Daily USDOT Registrations

Every day, hundreds of new trucking companies register a USDOT number with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). This actor gives you those brand-new carriers as clean, ready-to-call leads: legal name, owner or officer names, phone, email, address, fleet size, driver count, cargo types, hazmat status, and operating authority. The data comes straight from FMCSA's official daily census file.

New carriers immediately need insurance, factoring, ELDs, fuel cards, dispatch, compliance and drug-testing services, trucks, trailers, and loads. Reaching them first wins the deal.

Who uses this

• Commercial trucking insurance agents
• Freight factoring and equipment-finance companies
• ELD, fuel card, telematics, and TMS vendors
• Dispatch services, freight brokers, and load boards looking for new capacity
• DOT compliance, drug and alcohol consortium, and permit services

Why this actor

• Official source: the FMCSA Motor Carrier Census on data.transportation.gov, refreshed daily. U.S. DOT open data.
• Filters run on the server: state, interstate/intrastate, cargo types (30 categories), fleet size, for-hire only, hazmat, active only, must have email, must have phone.
• Monitor mode: schedule it daily with onlyNewSinceLastRun, and each run returns only carriers you have not received before.
• Clean output: formatted phone numbers, lowercase emails, readable labels instead of FMCSA codes, nested addresses, and a SAFER snapshot link for every carrier.
• Fast: thousands of carriers in seconds, with automatic paging, retries, and dedupe.
• Pay per result: you are charged only for carriers returned.

Also included: cellPhone, fax, businessType, buses, mcs150Mileage. operatingAuthority lists any MC/FF/MX dockets with their status. Most brand-new carriers have not been granted MC authority yet, which is itself a useful signal.

Notes

• addedDate is the date FMCSA added the carrier to its census (USDOT registration).
• Contact details are what the carrier filed on its MCS-150. Some carriers leave email blank, so use requireEmail if you need it.
• If you use phone or email for outreach, you are responsible for complying with TCPA, CAN-SPAM, and Do-Not-Call rules.
