What R D LIMITED PARTNERSHIP’s FMCSA record shows

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

USDOT number 550755
The USDOT number is FMCSA's permanent ID for this company. It never changes, even when the business renames, moves, or changes owners, so it's the most reliable way to identify R D LIMITED PARTNERSHIP.
MC number MC 272372
An MC (docket) number means the company applied for interstate operating authority to haul regulated freight for hire or to broker loads. Brokers and shippers usually check MC authority before booking.
Operating status Active
FMCSA lists this USDOT number as active. Active status alone doesn't confirm current insurance or operating authority; those are separate checks.
Operation type Interstate
Interstate carriers can haul freight across state lines and fall under the full federal safety rules (FMCSRs).
Fleet size 123 power units, 123 drivers
R D LIMITED PARTNERSHIP self-reports 123 power units (trucks and tractors), which makes it a large fleet. Fleet counts come from the carrier's own MCS-150 filing and aren't independently audited.
Last MCS-150 update Dec 15, 2025
The MCS-150 is the registration form where carriers report their address, fleet size, and operations. R D LIMITED PARTNERSHIP last filed it on Dec 15, 2025. That's within FMCSA's two-year update requirement, so the company details here are reasonably current.
