Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question about the data, access or your workflow? If you can’t find the answer here, reach out.
How is a new trucking company counted?
- By its FMCSA Census add date. The report counts carriers added that month that are still in the current Census with a U.S. physical address, so a few carriers removed from the Census since then are not included.
Where do these numbers come from?
- They are counts from the FMCSA Company Census as last observed by TruckerFetch. Active means Census status A. Carriers are placed by their reported physical address, cargo by the cargo codes they report and add dates by the Census add date. Carriers that asked to be removed from TruckerFetch are excluded.
