How we vet carriers

Every carrier is checked before they get a load.

Your vehicle is only as safe as the carrier hauling it. Before any carrier receives a load from JW Logistics Inc, we review authority, insurance, safety record, and identity.

01

Authority

We confirm the carrier has active operating authority with the FMCSA and a valid USDOT number. You can look us up the same way: JW Logistics Inc on FMCSA SAFER (MC-1201892, USDOT 3569500).

02

Insurance

We verify that insurance is active and collect a current certificate of insurance showing the coverage. Cargo coverage we require: [CARGO INSURANCE AMOUNT].

03

Safety record

We review federal safety data, including inspections, out-of-service rates, crash history, and the carrier’s operating history.

04

Identity

We confirm the carrier is who they say they are. That check helps prevent fraud and double-brokering before a unit is tendered.

Why the checks look the way they do

Unqualified carriers are a real problem in auto transport. Because our sister company, Tri State Cargo LLC, runs its own car hauler, we know what a legitimate, well-run carrier looks like — and what does not add up.

JW Logistics Inc remains the broker. Tri State Cargo may haul some loads. Others go with independent carriers that pass the same review.

After pickup

Every shipment is documented with a digital bill of lading and photo inspections at pickup and delivery, plus signed digital delivery confirmation. Status updates continue in transit, and you keep one point of contact.
