    Did it!!! Thank you so much for all the guidance in the vid. Will you marry me? Jk but you all that do this I’ll share my error. I set up a LLC and when doing the steps I entered it as my name and also my DBA. Was confused for some reason so after you do all this from my understanding any changes after be made with a form and DL pic. It’s all simple but it isn’t.
    My biggest reason is to heads up that the second you file this your phone will blow up like never before. They all claim they are with FMCSA and this and that. I called FMCSA and those are service providers (not exactly scammers but you don’t need them for all they are trying to sign you up for). My advice and this is just mine but give it a hour and CALL FMCSA and make sure your application is fine. If I hadn’t I wouldn’t had caught that error in mine. I wouldn’t had known about a problem until God knows when.

    In a previous video for the insurance you stated that we should get a dot number and sit on it to age because insurance company's will not insure a new business with a new Dot number. When the 90 days is up i need to show insurance coverage or my dot number will be cancelled and i will have to pay again. With that being said my Dot number will not be good or deleted due to not having insurance coverage or an agent.

  • @marktrucker9010
    @marktrucker9010 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you will be working for the PORTS you will always need an MC number.I was told that info and I called CHP and they confirmed. The containers come from all over the world and all over the States so you need an MC. You will need a Interstate authority. A intrastate authority will not be enough for you to work for the ports.

    • @TruckingMadeSuccessful
      @TruckingMadeSuccessful  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      YES! This is very true. Interstate does not depend only on whether the truck crosses state lines- it depends on whether the actual cargo is interstate.

I have a question, I am going to start with box truck but yet I didn't buy it but I'm gonna apply mc dot with help of this video, question is should I have to click on general fright and other things which comes fit in box truck. Second ❓ is what to do right now while applying mc dot because I have in my plan to add another truck which will be reefer in my business after few months of startup. Should I mention now in filling mc dot or update that later on when reefer come into my fleet. 3rd question is I have SSN and EIN number, what I have to put in applying mc dot.
