Who should I use for a process agent?

This is who I've used for many years. Multi States Agents for Process. I stumbled across them when I was new. $50/year.

They are easy to work with and seem like a smallish outfit, which I prefer supporting over a big company.

Is the boc 3 just for when you start the authority?

Or do have to keep paying a yearly fee to process agent?

 

Insurance files the BOC3 while the process agent is your on-file contact for any state or other agency and anyone looking to reach out to you over legal matters that can't find your actual address.

cheap and little used unless they also do Highway use Tax, etc. too.

 

Just to clarify, I had ooida help setup my authority with the boc 3 and drug testing.

I found a much lower cost drug consortium, and had planned to drop ooida membership .

Do I have to stay a member to keep boc 3 active?

 

Sorry for hijacking your thread SnowMan710

I used ooida when set mine up and they used to be very helpful.

The last few years it's turned into a nickel dime you to death for any help.

I wouldn't recommend them, unless the boc 3 is a yearly requirement.

If it is I guess the membership would justify it.

 

The biggest thing that helped me when I had my own truck was when I realized that almost everything a company can do for you can be done by you for a fraction of the cost. Make sure any website you work with ends with .gov. These are the only true FMSCA websites. Others will do their best to look authentic and make you think you need what they offer. I know UCR can be done yourself. Idk about boc 3 I don’t remember even having that, but the only thing I had a company for was drug and alcohol consortium i do know that.

 

I agree but you can't be your own process server.

I only pay one other third party service in my business, period, and that's the outfit I pay $7.99 to to file my 2290.

And it has always been my understanding that this is annual. I would love to know more if someone knows a way around this.

 

Paid $50 (All American) 28 years ago, haven't had to pay since then. Only way I'd have to pay more is if my registered address isn't valid and someone has to go through the process agent to serve me.
