How much time would it actually take for us to file your UCR? πŸ€” The answer's simple: the same day you tell us you want it done.

As long as it's before 3:00 PM Mountain Time, it'll be done the day you need it to be done. Worst case? By the next morning.

The only exception could be for brand new faces in trucking - if you filed your DOT very recently, the UCR filing system can take 2-3 business days for your DOT number to appear in the system.

Reach out to us for more information. We're always here to help. 🫢

There are several states that have a weight-distance permit. If you are operating in Oregon, Connecticut, or New Mexico, with a vehicle that is 26,001+ pounds or more, you WILL need to get a weight-distance permit.

If you are at 18,001+ pounds or more and driving through New York, you will need a NY HUT. Kentucky requires a KYU number at 60,000+ pounds GVWR or more.

If you've started your trucking company, you've already put in the hard work. Let us do the rest. More questions? Comment them below and we'll be sure to answer! πŸ’­

Quarter 3 approaches! We're climbing up on the IFTA quarter 3 reports, here's what you should know.

Generally, if you have a CDL vehicle and you're crossing state lines, you need to do IFTA quarterly reporting. If you're driving in New York, New Mexico, Oregon, or Connecticut you will need their state permits AND to do their quarterly reporting. Kentucky's requirements fall in if you're 60,000 pounds or above.

Still have questions? No problem. We're here to help in any way you might need. State permits and IFTA is our bread and butter. Let us know what your curious about below πŸ‘‡οΈ πŸ›£οΈ
