What PRESTON DOBBS’s FMCSA record shows

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

USDOT number 87819
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 PRESTON DOBBS.
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 Interstate
Interstate carriers can haul freight across state lines and fall under the full federal safety rules (FMCSRs).
Fleet size 14 power units, 13 drivers
PRESTON DOBBS self-reports 14 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 Aug 26, 2005
The MCS-150 is the registration form where carriers report their address, fleet size, and operations. PRESTON DOBBS last filed it on Aug 26, 2005. That's more than ten years old, so the company details here are essentially unverified.
