KRAFT MOVING SERVICE INC

USDOT 260506MC-Docket MC171198FORT WAYNE, IN
Do not tender10 power units

KRAFT MOVING SERVICE INC (USDOT 260506) in FORT WAYNE, IN — carries a hard disqualifier. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

  • Has active operating authority that's tenderable today (common or contract).
  • Authority revocation is currently pending — carrier may lose operating authority soon.
  • Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.
  • BIPD on file: $1,000,000.
  • Cargo insurance on file.
  • 6 prior insurance lapse(s) on record, most recent began 2011-05-17 — the carrier let required coverage lapse before.
  • Current BIPD policy (PROGRESSIVE SOUTHEASTERN INSURANCE COMPANY) was filed 28 day(s) after the last involuntary revocation (2026-03-13) — a refile-to-reinstate pattern worth a closer look.
  • Satisfactory safety rating.
  • No BASIC alerts in any of the five public SMS categories.
  • Driver and vehicle out-of-service rate is above the national roadside average.
  • 2 preventable crash(es) in the last 24 months; recordable crash rate not available.
  • No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.
  • No link to a prior revoked authority.
  • Authority involuntarily revoked 13 times, most recent 2026-03-13 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
  • FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2017-11-08 (C).
  • 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.

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