The BOC-3 is the Blanket of Coverage requirement for all Motor Carriers, Passenger Carriers, Brokers and Freight Forwarders to get an authority.
Our BOC-3 provides your company fifty-process agents; the lower 48 states as well as Hawaii and Alaska. Our agents of process that represent our company and ultimately you are alive and well and many are attorneys and professional process servers.
Beware of these discount BOC-3 companies, just like cheap insurance, if something goes wrong, you will wish you had better coverage. Imagine if you are served with official documents and the 20-dollar process agent you paid has an agent for your state that is deceased or out of business and you never get the service. The BOC-3 coverage is a big deal.
Let us file your BOC-3 electronically immediately into the government system. We are not third parties and are Registered Process Agents with the FMCSA. We charge $129 to file the BOC-3.
