For Canadian trucking companies, the process varies from province to province if you want to operate only within Canada. For US authority, you must apply to obtain Operating Authority through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) in the form of a Motor Carrier (MC) number and DOT Number. Apart from this, there are some additional permits you might need. You also apply for different types of permits depending on what kind of cargo is being carried. You may need multiple permits to cover multiple types of cargo.
Canadian Fleet Masters provides services to help you understand and apply for the relevant authorities and permits. The paperwork is handled by our consultants to make the process hassle-free for you.
CVOR (Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration) is needed by operators of trucks with a gross weight or registered gross weight over 4,500 kg that may have been plated in Ontario, US or Mexico. CVOR certificate is not needed by vehicles plated in other Canadian provinces or territories.
NSC (National Safety Code) is required by trucks or commercial vehicles licensed with a gross vehicle weight of more than 5,000 kg. The NSC standards supported by provincial regulations establish minimum safety standards for drivers and maintenance of trucks.
A US MC DOT Number is required by operators dealing in interstate commerce with vehicles that are over 10,000 lbs. It may also be required for carriers hauling hazardous materials.
The cost of getting your trucking permits to operate within Canada and cross the border to the US can be approximately around $1000 to $1200. IRP plate registration cost can be around $2700 to $3000 per year for a single truck. An expert trucking consultant would charge a service fee in addition to these charges. At Canadian Fleet Masters Inc we help you to get all required trucking permits at a very competitive price.
Getting your own trucking authority and permit helps remove the middlemen and you can directly obtain freight from freight brokers, shippers, and load matching services like load boards (Loadlink). Obtaining an authority maximizes your profits and you can eventually grow your one truck trucking company into a big fleet.
Once you get your own trucking permits you can try one of the following methods to find loads: 1. Look for freight brokers in your area. 2. Hire a truck dispatcher. 3. Look loads on load boards. 4. Contact freight companies directly. 5. Ask for referrals from existing customers
