How many trucking companies register in California?

Over the last four weeks, an average of 178 new for-hire carriers registered with the FMCSA in California each week, and the largest new fleet this week has 5 trucks. A for-hire carrier has to have liability coverage on file before its authority becomes active, so new registrations are the earliest point at which an insurance agent can reach them.

Where these numbers come from

The FMCSA Company Census File is the US Department of Transportation's public register of motor carriers. These figures count active carriers in California that registered as authorized for hire, by registration date. Company names and contact details are not published here; they are in the weekly list.
