Simplifying DOT Filings What Every Trucking Company
Needs to Know
Running a commercial trucking business involves more than just getting from point A to
B—it also requires staying compliant with the Department of Transportation (DOT). One
of the most critical and often confusing tasks is managing your DOT filings. Fortunately,
UCRPlans.us is here to help streamline the process so you can focus on the road ahead.
What Are DOT Filings?
DOT filings are regulatory documents that commercial carriers must submit to maintain
compliance with federal and state transportation authorities. These filings include updates and
registrations that ensure your business is legally operating on public roads.
Common DOT filings include:
Unified Carrier Registration (UCR)
Biennial MCS-150 Updates
BOC-3 Process Agent Filing
FMCSA Operating Authority Applications
Hazardous Materials Registration (if applicable)
Why Are DOT Filings Important?
Failing to file correctly or on time can lead to:
Costly fines and penalties
Suspension of your USDOT number
Delayed shipments and lost business opportunities
Red flags during roadside inspections or audits
In short, accurate and timely filings protect your company’s authority and reputation.
Who Needs to File DOT Paperwork?
You must file DOT-related documents if your company:
Operates commercial vehicles across state lines
Has vehicles weighing 10,001 pounds or more
Transports hazardous materials
Carries passengers for compensation
Whether you’re a single owner-operator or manage a fleet, staying on top of these filings is
essential for keeping your operations legal and uninterrupted.
