Always cross reference the name of your shipper with the FMSCA. You don’t necessarily need their DOT and MC #’s. Look them up by company name and match their provided phone number online with the number they provided you for services. If it doesn’t match, then they are a not a legal hauler. Many fraudulent people will supply an MC or DOT number of a legitimate business and the company name matches so they are assumed to be an honest person, wrong. Always match phone numbers and call the people you are entrusted your horse to.
