Starting a trucking company can feel overwhelming.
You need a DOT Number.
You need MC Authority.
You need a BOC-3 Filing.
You need truck insurance.
You need access to factoring and fuel cards.
And if you're like most new trucking company owners, you want to get everything completed as quickly as possible so you can start hauling freight and generating revenue.
At InterGuard Insurance Solutions and Start My Trucking Company, we've built a process designed to help new authorities move through these steps faster and with less confusion.
Instead of calling multiple companies and trying to figure everything out yourself, our team can help guide you through the process from startup to your first load.
🚛 Start a Trucking Company Fast with DOT Number and MC Authority Setup
The first step for most interstate trucking companies is obtaining:
✅ DOT Number
✅ MC Authority
✅ BOC-3 Filing
These filings are the foundation of your trucking company.
Without them, you cannot legally operate as an interstate motor carrier.
Many new trucking company owners spend days or weeks trying to determine which forms they need and where to submit them.
Our team helps simplify the process.

Once your authority application is submitted, the next major step is obtaining truck insurance.
This is where many new authorities get stuck.
Questions start coming up:
How much liability do I need?
Do I need cargo coverage?
What is an MCS-90?
What is a BMC-91X?
How much is the down payment?
How quickly can my filings be submitted?
The faster your insurance is in place, the faster your filings can reach the FMCSA.
And the faster your filings are accepted, the closer you are to becoming an active motor carrier.

We understand that trucking companies don't want to wait days for answers.

⛽ Get Factoring and Fuel Cards Fast
Many new trucking company owners spend so much time focusing on authority and insurance that they forget about cash flow.
Cash flow matters.
Fuel matters.
Access to working capital matters.
Factoring can help trucking companies receive payment more quickly on completed loads, while fuel card programs can help manage fuel expenses and provide additional resources.

Our team can help connect trucking companies with resources designed specifically for transportation businesses.
🚛 Why Speed Matters When Starting a Trucking Company
Every day your authority sits inactive is another day you're not:
❌ Booking loads
❌ Building broker relationships
❌ Generating revenue
❌ Growing your business
That's why many trucking company owners want a process that moves efficiently.
The sooner your DOT Number, MC Authority, insurance, and supporting services are in place, the sooner you can focus on operating your business.
📋 One Team. One Process. Less Waiting.
One of the biggest frustrations new trucking companies experience is having to work with multiple vendors who don't communicate with one another.
You talk to one company about your authority.
Another company about insurance.
A third company about factoring.
A fourth company about fuel cards.
At InterGuard Insurance Solutions and Start My Trucking Company, many of those conversations can begin with the same team.
Our goal is simple:
Help trucking companies get moving.
Help trucking companies avoid unnecessary delays.
Help trucking companies get on the road.
