FAQ

Where does the data come from? The FMCSA Motor Carrier Census (Company Census File) published on the official U.S. Department of Transportation open-data portal. Carriers self-report this information on their MCS-150 registration.

How fresh is it? FMCSA updates the dataset daily, and each run queries it live.

Why do some carriers have no email or MC number? Email is optional on the MCS-150 form, and MC numbers exist only for carriers with operating authority (for-hire interstate). Use the requireEmail filter if you need emails.

Is this legal? Yes. It is public government data published for reuse. When you contact carriers, follow telemarketing and email laws (TCPA, CAN-SPAM, DNC).

How many carriers are there? About 2.2 million active USDOT registrations, with several thousand new ones every week.
