Bonds

In order to operate legally as a transportation broker, a freight broker bond is required by the FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration). Also known as a Property Brokers Surety Bond, BMC-84, or a ICC Bond.

Bonding companies have deemed this type of bond “higher risk” due to high claim volume. The Asian Commercial Insurance Center has access to several specialty bond programs that offer low, standard rates.

Permits

Over Dimensional and Over Weight: Needed when a vehicle and/or load is oversize or over the registered weight. This temporary permit give the vehicle authorization to move according to the permit specifications. You need a permit if any part of the vehicle and/or load is: Width is more than 8'6" Wide, Height is over 13'6" High and Total Gross Weight is over 80,000#. Maximum total length (includes tractor and trailer) varies on each state and province. Please call us with your total length and we can tell you if you require a permit for length.

Superloads : These are usually over 120,000#, Super load status varies on particular state or province. Loads may be legal length, width and height and still classified as a Superload due to the fact their Total Gross Weight is within the state or province specifications.

Fuel and Trip : When traveling in a State which the vehicle is not registered with IRP a temporary "Trip Permit" is needed for that State. If the vehicle does not hold an IFTA decal and license then a temporary "Fuel permit" is needed before entering the State.
