Ensure Your Company Is Setup Correctly

The registrations FMCSA requires is dependent upon the types of vehicles your company has on the road and the states you’re driving through. Without filing correctly, companies can be exposed to hefty fines and penalties from the FMCSA. Getting this right is a key part of running a successful and compliant business. Start here to ensure you’re setup with:

DOT Compliance

The Right Programs, From Day One

Enrolling in the correct DOT compliance programs is essential for the safety of your company, drivers, and other motorists on the road.

 

DOT Drug Testing

A random DOT Drug and Alcohol Testing Program is a mandatory requirement for CDL drivers, including owner operators.

Driver Qualification (DQ) Files

All FMCSA regulated companies must ensure drivers are qualified per federal regulations and maintain a DQ file.

Clearinghouse Compliance

An online database that lets employers track and monitor drug and alcohol testing compliance of their drivers.

Audit Protection Program

A thorough review of DOT safety regulations, employee training, and safety procedures ahead of your audit.

I had an awesome experience receiving my DOT number. I was kind of nervous of the process since it was my first time . Everything went well and did not take long at all . I recommend this company to anyone.

Tania @ Express Compliance has been great to work with. This is my first time getting a DOT/MC#s for a tow truck and I was overwhelmed with information and requirements. Tania has been patient with me, walked me through & helped me not get double charged from other companies or fraud. She gets back to me in a timely manner when I email. I have also spoke to Austin, Administrator, and he was polite and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them!

I recently lost my husband and was told that I needed to get a whole new DOT number - couldn’t just transfer to my sons name - and after doing the application started getting a lot of phone calls and didn’t know if I should pick up - maybe it was a scam - but I finally picked up and was great by Drea. She was so compassionate and helpful - really treated me with respect and compassion. She helped me thru this whole process - which I know nothing about! I am so thankful for her help!! I know my husband is looking down and so happy that the process is done and my son can carry on his legacy!! Thank you Drea!

I recently I needed a DOT number, and did not know anything about it. Express Compliance told me everything I needed to know Brianna Murdock and their management was a huge help and I was very lucky to have Kayla Sullivan as my representative. I also worked one on one with Jael Murdock as she closely monitors all my registrations and got me in full compliance, she responds promptly and very attentive.
