We have set aside the two best ways to get your authority. You may choose to do it yourself, or use our partner GLauthority.com
The Steps to Do it Yourself
- Determine the type of operation authority
- Name your company and determine if you will classify as a sole proprietor, a partnership, or a corporation.
- Be approved for primary liability and cargo insurance.
- Make sure you have startup money for the authority filing fee, insurance, permits, base plates, equipment and enrollment in a drug/alcohol program.
- New entrant registration requires for-hire motor carriers to complete an OP-1(P) form, the BOC-3 form, and pay the Federal fee for authority of $300. (Private carriers are not required to file an OP-1 or BOC-3 or pay the fee)
- Complete the Motor Carrier Identification Report and Safety Certification Application for a USDOT number.
