Does MAGNUM TRANSPORT SERVICE LLC have active FMCSA broker authority?

Who is the surety provider for MAGNUM TRANSPORT SERVICE LLC's BMC-85?

MAGNUM TRANSPORT SERVICE LLC's BMC-85 is filed with TRANSPORT FINANCIAL SERVICES, LLC under policy 26027, effective Sep 19, 2023.

What is a freight broker bond?

It's the $75,000 the federal government makes every licensed broker put up before they can arrange your freight, either a BMC-84 surety bond or a BMC-85 trust fund. If the broker stiffs you, that's the money you file a claim against. No bond on file, no operating authority.

What's the difference between BMC-84 and BMC-85?

A BMC-84 is a surety bond: an insurance company promises to pay carriers if the broker doesn't. A BMC-85 is a trust fund: the broker parks actual cash or securities with a financial institution. Both satisfy the $75,000 requirement. In practice a BMC-84 claim tends to move faster because there's a surety underwriting it.

What does a pending bond cancellation mean for me?

It means the surety has told FMCSA it's walking away on a specific date. If the broker doesn't replace the filing by then, FMCSA revokes their broker authority. Any load you haul after that date has no bond behind it. If you see a cancellation date on a broker's page, get paid before it lands, or don't take the load.

How do I know a rate confirmation is really from this broker?

Check the sender's email domain against the domain on the broker's FMCSA registration, which is listed on every profile page here. Rate cons from Gmail, Yahoo or Outlook addresses are not how licensed brokers do business. Drop the PDF into the sandbox on any broker page and Bubba will run that comparison for you, in your browser, without uploading the file anywhere.

Is any of this a guarantee I'll get paid?

No. An active bond and clean authority mean the broker meets the federal minimum, not that they're good for the money on time. Use this to rule out the obvious problems, then use your own credit terms and quick-pay judgment on the rest.

Contact & Domain Validation

Impersonators copy a real broker's name and MC number onto a fake rate confirmation. Check where a rate con came from against the email domain FMCSA has on record, and the phone and address under Company Details.

Official email domain: No company domain on file with FMCSA

A rate confirmation from a free mailbox — Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook — is not how a licensed broker sends paperwork. Treat it as an impersonation attempt.
Watch for lookalike domains: an extra letter, a hyphen, or .co in place of .com.
Call back on the phone number in FMCSA's record (see Company Details) — never the one printed on the rate confirmation itself.
