Review before tendering6 power units
FAR WEST FREIGHTERS INC (USDOT 1603322) in ST GEORGE, UT — has findings to review before tendering. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

- No history of insurance lapses.
- Current BIPD policy (GREAT WEST CASUALTY CO.) was filed 12 day(s) after the last involuntary revocation (2020-06-01) — a refile-to-reinstate pattern worth a closer look.
