Before you book a drayage carrier at New Orleans

  1. Authority and insurance. Look up the MC or USDOT number and confirm active authority and insurance on file with FMCSA.
  2. Identity. Call the phone number on the federal record, not the one in the email, and confirm the address.
  3. Port access. Ask whether the carrier participates in the UIIA and whether its drivers hold TWIC cards.
  4. Equipment. Ask where the chassis comes from, and confirm overweight, hazmat or reefer capability if the box needs it.
  5. Paper trail. Get the certificate of insurance from the agent and keep it with the load.
