FAQ
Frequently Asked Question
What services does Dispatch&Services Inc. offer for transportation companies?
Dispatch&Services Inc. provides comprehensive services to help motor carriers manage business and compliance. We do not transport freight directly, but rather support companies from DOT compliance (e.g., drug and alcohol testing programs, driver records, employee background checks) to financial and operational services (transportation factoring, fuel card processing) to assistance with documentation (licenses, registrations, IFTA reporting) and insurance. Our goal is to take these worries off your plate so you can focus on transportation and business development.
Are drivers required to submit to drug and alcohol testing, and can you help organize these tests?
Yes. If your drivers operate commercial trucks and are subject to U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, they must participate in a drug and alcohol testing program. This means an initial test before a driver is allowed to drive, and then all drivers are randomly tested throughout the year (random testing). We help you organize this procedure: put your employees on a testing program, coordinate routine testing (such as random testing), and keep the necessary records. This keeps you compliant with federal requirements and safe on the road.
What is a Driver File and why should it be maintained?
Every transportation company must maintain a Driver File for each driver, which is a set of required documents that verify the driver’s qualifications and clearance to work. This file includes, for example, a copy of the driver’s CDL license, a current DOT medical card, pre-employment drug test results, employment questionnaire, driving record checks, and other paperwork required by law. Maintaining such a file is important to comply with DOT regulations and to successfully pass audits or inspections. Our company takes over the management of driver files: we collect and organize all required documents, keep them up to date (e.g., medical certificates or reports updated on time) and keep them in order. This protects your company from fines and confirms that all your drivers meet the necessary requirements.
Do you perform pre-employment background checks on drivers?
Yes, we offer a comprehensive background check service for driver candidates. The background check includes a review of driving and MVR (Motor Vehicle Record) history, a check for criminal records or serious offenses, and verification of previous work experience and references. We help you make sure you hire reliable and qualified employees who meet safety requirements. In addition, proper employment screening helps you comply with legal requirements (such as the FCRA) and protect your company’s reputation.
Does Dispatch&Services Inc. help with obtaining necessary licenses and registrations for carriers?
Yes, we provide support in obtaining all key permits required for a transportation company. Our team can help you register your company with the Department of Transportation (obtain a USDOT number), issue an operating authority – commercial transportation permit (MC number), appoint an agent for process (BOC-3), and complete other mandatory registrations. For example, we will advise and assist with annual UCR (Unified Carrier Registration) registration and obtaining individual state authorizations if required. With our help, the registration and licensing process is faster and easier, and you can be assured that your company is in compliance from the start.
What is IFTA and how do you help with quarterly reporting?
IFTA (International Fuel Tax Agreement) is an agreement between U.S. states and Canadian provinces that simplifies the allocation and payment of fuel taxes for trucking companies operating in different regions. If you have a commercial truck that makes interstate trips, you are required to register with IFTA and file quarterly mileage and fuel consumption reports in each state. Dispatch&Services Inc. makes this task much easier for customers. We collect the necessary data (mileage by state, amount of fuel purchased), correctly calculate tax deductions for each jurisdiction, and prepare and file IFTA reports on time for each quarter. Thanks to this, you avoid possible penalties for delays or errors in calculations and save your time by entrusting routine work to professionals.
What is transportation factoring and how is it useful for trucking companies?
Factoring is a financial service that helps carriers get paid immediately for completed flights without waiting for long payment from customers. Essentially, you sell your invoices (invoices) to a factoring company and immediately receive an advance payment – usually a large portion of the invoice amount, less a commission. This is very helpful for maintaining cash flow: you always have funds for fuel, repairs, driver salaries and other expenses, even if customers pay 30-60 days later. Dispatch&Services Inc. offers transportation factoring services on favorable terms. We approve your requests quickly, take care of invoice management, and work with trusted financial partners to ensure you receive funds without delays. As a result, your company remains liquid and financially stable, and you can concentrate on transportation without distractions from payment collection issues.
Do you provide fuel cards and what benefits do they provide?
Yes, we help our customers to get fuel cards, which make refueling trucks much easier and cheaper. A fuel card allows drivers to refuel at partner gas stations with cashless payment and fuel discount. The main advantages: you reduce fuel costs thanks to contractual discounts, and all transactions are automatically recorded – it is easier to track expenses and plan your fuel budget. Fuel cards also provide control – you can set limits and see each driver’s fueling reports online. This is convenient and secure, as it reduces the need for large amounts of cash from drivers and reduces the risk of check fraud. As a result, your company saves money and gets transparent accounting of fuel costs.
