    Trans-United DOT #70750..... MC 128648.... The Brokerage MC I see is 703145

    Ive looked on FMCSA/Safer site and I get Great West Casualty Ins....... I call them and they say the policy hasn't been in effect since 2018!

    Anyone help me look up this information......?

    Nevermind----- I found it.

    If that's Trans united out of Indiana, use caution. They are on my company's no haul list for slow/no pay...

    Just FYI for anyone thinking of using them. I just got paid yesterday. I did file on their bond, you have to jump through hoops with the bond company. Getting papers notarized, etc. Along with a list of to-do's when filing.

    At least their bond company answered the phone. Some will have an answering service that will never forward your message. Good for you by getting paid.

    No, if you called they referred you to go to the website. The bond companies reviews for answering the phones on google, was actually pretty bad. Everything was done online.
