Truckers Bookkeeping Service, LLC is a family owned business, and since 1968 we have been helping small trucking companies start running on their own. Most of our clients tell us that they enjoy running their trucking company, but they do not enjoy, and do not have time, to deal with the red tape and confusion of filling out a bunch of applications for state and federal governments.

TBS specializes in helping new and established trucking companies stay in compliance with the necessary and time-consuming paperwork and requirements of the trucking business. Our staff of specialists is skilled in ensuring that clients are relieved from the tiresome and complicated chores that are required by the numerous regulating agencies.

Getting Started

MC# / ICC AUTHORITY

The first step in getting your business started is getting your own operating authority, which is granted by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMSCA). TBS has helped literally thousands of trucking companies get their authorities.

Here is how the process of getting your authority works:

TBS and every one of our competitors, use the same system to get your MC Number. The number is issued instantly and TBS, and all of our competitors, will have your number immediately. However, this is only your MC Number. You DO NOT have YOUR authority to operate until you have met the remaining FMCSA requirements. This is how it works:

Your MC # is issued by the FMCSA.
Your MC # must be published in the FMCSA register – this takes 2-4 days. Depends on the workload of the FMCSA.
The publishing of your MC# starts the 10 day protest period. Nothing happens during these ten days.
You must file your insurance (done by your insurance company) and your BOC-3 (we do that) to activate your authority.
When the protest period ends and all filings have been made your final authority is granted by the FMCSA. If everything happens in a timely manner, especially putting the insurance in place, the authority process usually takes 3-4 weeks.

There is no way to make it happen any faster, we are dealing with the federal government, so please beware if someone is telling you differently.
