Review before tenderingHazmat-authorized17 power units

1ST BACKHOE SERVICES LLC (USDOT 2531884) in HOBBS, NM — has findings to review before tendering. 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: $1,000,000.
  • No cargo insurance on file. Required for many shipper contracts.
  • No history of insurance lapses.
  • Unrated by FMCSA. Most carriers are unrated — unrated is not the same as unsafe.
  • BASIC alert flagged in: Hours of Service.
  • Driver and vehicle out-of-service rate is above the national roadside average.
  • No preventable crashes in the last 24 months; recordable crash rate 0 not elevated.
  • No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.
  • No link to a prior revoked authority.
  • MCS-150 self-report is stale (>24 months) — fleet size, mileage, and driver counts are low-confidence.
  • 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. The Hazmat Compliance BASIC is also withheld for this hazmat carrier.

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