FreightValidate Information

FreightValidate is a FREE Carrier Verification System for Shippers, Freight Brokers, Load-boards and factoring companies to use to help in identifying past, present or potential fraudulent or double brokering threats. For any Carrier or Broker to be "FreightValidated" they must have active Motor Carrier Authority & DOT Number that has been in effect for more than 180 days, (not pending cancellation), have a verified Principal Place of Business (no post office boxes etc), must not have been blocked by other companies or have any reports of fraud or double broker activity. Based on several verification datapoints, Carrier & Brokers MC number information will be either “Validated”. or “Not Validated”. Carriers and Brokers may also receive a “Warning “ if they have on file a generic email address on file or if no contact phone number or email address is on File with FMCSA. This tool is NOT intended to replace 3rd Party Carrier Verification, Monitoring or Evaluation companies as we do not report on matters of carrier safety compliance, inspection results, driver fitness or mechanical inspection results- FreightValidate is more of a “Pre-verification” system. We highly recommend that even if a carrier or broker is validated by carrier watch, the user continues with the normal process in vetting the carrier through companies like www.MyCarrierPackets.com or their Compliance Department
