USDOT 203490MC-Docket MC215439NEW HAMPTON, IA
Do not tender981 power units

CROELL INC (USDOT 203490) in NEW HAMPTON, IA — carries a hard disqualifier. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

  • Has active operating authority that's tenderable today (common or contract).
  • No pending authority revocation.
  • Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.
  • BIPD on file: $5,000,000.
  • No cargo insurance on file. Required for many shipper contracts.
  • No history of insurance lapses.
  • Satisfactory safety rating.
  • No BASIC alerts in any of the five public SMS categories.
  • Driver and vehicle out-of-service rates are at or below the national roadside average.
  • 19 preventable crash(es) in the last 24 months; recordable crash rate not available.
  • 1 fatal crash(es) in the last 24 months.
  • No link to a prior revoked authority.
  • Authority involuntarily revoked 2 times, most recent 2017-02-10 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
  • FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2002-10-04 (C).
  • Crash Indicator and Hazmat Compliance BASICs are statutorily withheld from public SMS under the FAST Act — their absence is not a clean record; use the crash-risk signals above instead.

Built from FMCSA's public Safety Management System data — guidance, not legal advice. Verify directly with the carrier and your cargo policy before tendering.
