Trucking Consultation
Below are the documents and programs you must have in place prior to your new entrant safety audit, which usually takes place within the first six months of obtaining your USDOT Number. Although this audit is designed to be educational, it is a serious process. Keep in mind that a failure here could put your business on hold…in some cases, permanently.

PERMITS & REGISTRATION
The permits and registrations you need will vary depending on where you drive and what you carry. From determining what you’re required to have, to handling the paperwork on your behalf, TA is here to help.

DOT DRUG & ALCOHOL TESTING PROGRAM
If you’re an interstate motor carrier who operates a vehicle with a gross vehicle weight of 26,001+ pounds, you must participate in a compliant drug and alcohol program that includes pre-employment and random drug testing. This regulation applies to motor carriers of all sizes – even owner operators.
For one, flat annual fee, we’ll manage your entire program and ensure you have everything you need to stay compliant – from a customized drug and alcohol policy to a scientifically random testing program.

To ensure your driver files are always complete, accurate and up to date, TA will create your files and perform all of the necessary background checks for you. Once complete, one copy goes to you and the other is stored securely with us.
