Review before tendering2 power units
COBRA VAN LINES LLC (USDOT 2635362) in NORWOOD, NJ — has findings to review before tendering. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

- Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.
- BIPD on file: $1,000,000.

- FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2017-06-23 (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.
