Drug and Alcohol Consortium

I use https://expresslabs.com/
had my audit a few weeks back and they didn't say anything bad about them.

 

My local consortium charged $250 the first year & $150 each year after.

 

i use cmci

 

CMCI here as well. Their staff is very good.

 

So i have to hire a middle man just to piss in a cup.

 

Or even better be handed a cup and bray like a mule that you are becoming when they rake in 800 to do the tests on that one cup.

This whole drug testing business has gotten seriously grotesque. I cannot wait for the anti coffee, anti anything else that is worth doing in the morning.

 

Why can't I just go to the same doctor that gave me a DOT physical.

 

I am a private carrier so MC number not needed.

I have:

FMCSA compliance check list.
Fleet maintenance policy.
Vehicle preventative maintenance/inspection
Maintenance tracking forms
Annual vehicle inspection certification
Vehicle maintenance file
Brake inspectors certification
Accident register
Commercial motor vehicle credentials
Annual vehicle inspection report & sticker
My UCR
IFTA
I can get a copy of my driving record on my own.
Application for employment .....
What else is needed other than a drug and alcohol consortium.
There is only one driver at this time as well.
I can keep up with my own paperwork.

 

I have spoken to a few of these third party greasey used car salesman types that just want your money. This is ridiculous. Is there a way to do the random drug and alcohol consortium without going through the third party grease balls.

 

You could sign up with NASTC for 225.00 a year and you are part of their consortium as well as other benefits.
