Whether you are a driver with thirty years experience, heading out on your own or a fresh-face, right out of truck driver school, starting a trucking company is a complicated business. Fortunately, Foley is here to make it easy for you. From obtaining your Operating Authority to getting through your New Entrant Safety Audit, Foley has helped thousands of New Entrant companies get started in the motor carrier business.
There are two big steps you have to take to get on the road as a full motor carrier. The first is to get your Operating Authority and other required permits. Foley can help you get not only your Operating Authority, but your BOC-3, your Universal Carrier Registration and pretty much any permit that you might need. Don’t know what an Operating Authority is? Don’t worry! We’ve helped thousands of motor carriers get started; some know everything they need, some don’t. Simply give us a call and one of our highly trained New Entrant specialists will explain everything you need to know.
The next big step is your New Entrant Safety Audit. Once you have your Operating Authority, the DOT will audit your operation to make sure you are in compliance with the DOT regulations. The New Entrant Safety Audit will review your DOT Compliance efforts and highlight areas that you may be deficient in. The audit is meant to be educational rather than a punishment but a bad audit has derailed more than one New Entrant carrier’s dreams. While you may find the New Entrant Safety Audit stressful, don’t worry, you are in good hands with Foley. We’ve been providing DOT compliance services to our 30,000 motor carrier clients for twenty years. Follow our programs and we will guarantee you pass your Safety Audit — one of your first major hurdles on the way to success as a motor carrier.
Even better, our DOT compliance programs are designed for the New Entrant motor carrier on a shoestring budget.
