What FAMOUS BRANDS DISTRIBUTORS INC’s FMCSA record shows
Each field from the public registration, and what it means when you’re vetting this carrier.
- USDOT number 82385
- 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 FAMOUS BRANDS DISTRIBUTORS INC.
- MC number None on file
- No MC number is on file. That's normal for private fleets hauling their own goods and for intrastate-only carriers, but a company with no MC number can't legally haul regulated interstate freight for hire.
- Operating status Inactive
- FMCSA lists this USDOT number as inactive. Inactive carriers shouldn't be dispatched; confirm the company has reactivated before booking a load.
- Operation type Intrastate
- Intrastate carriers are registered to operate within a single state. Booking one for a load that crosses state lines is a compliance red flag.
- Fleet size 19 power units, 21 drivers
- FAMOUS BRANDS DISTRIBUTORS INC self-reports 19 power units (trucks and tractors), which makes it a mid-size fleet. Fleet counts come from the carrier's own MCS-150 filing and aren't independently audited.
- Last MCS-150 update Jul 6, 2001
- The MCS-150 is the registration form where carriers report their address, fleet size, and operations. FAMOUS BRANDS DISTRIBUTORS INC last filed it on Jul 6, 2001. That's more than ten years old, so the company details here are essentially unverified.
