Each field from the public registration, and what it means when you’re vetting this carrier.
- USDOT number 43381

- Operation type Interstate
- Interstate carriers can haul freight across state lines and fall under the full federal safety rules (FMCSRs).
- Fleet size 6 power units, 5 drivers
- DAVID SMITH STEEL COMPANY INC self-reports 6 power units (trucks and tractors), which makes it a small fleet. Fleet counts come from the carrier's own MCS-150 filing and aren't independently audited.
