How buyers work the Missouri file
Insurance agents
1,957 of the 2,587 active Missouri carriers registered since October 1, 2025 are authorized for hire. When those Missouri carriers haul general freight interstate in trucks of 10,001 pounds or more, 49 CFR 387.9 sets their minimum liability at $750,000; the 221 that marked hazmat face the higher tiers.
Factoring companies
1,132 Missouri carriers in the file have an MC docket, the operating authority a for-hire carrier files for to haul for others across state lines. MC docket plus for-hire is where the Missouri factoring list starts.
Dispatch services
1,694 Missouri carriers report one power unit or none, the single-truck operators a dispatch service works for. Sorting the Missouri file by registration date puts the newest of them first.
ELD and fleet software
The interstate carriers among Missouri's 2,587 registrations since October 1, 2025 are inside the 18-month new entrant monitoring period set by 49 CFR 385.307.
Truck and trailer dealers
General freight is the cargo Missouri's new carriers checked most often in the last 90 days (294 carriers), which tells a dealer which trailers to show first.

Calling and emailing new carriers
Most new carriers are owner-operators, and the phone on their registration is often a personal mobile. The TCPA and the National Do Not Call Registry apply to sales calls and texts: scrub every list first, dial by hand, and do not use autodialers, prerecorded or AI voices, or texts without consent. Email falls under CAN-SPAM (a working opt-out and your postal address in every message). Mail is the lowest-risk first touch. This is not legal advice; the Terms set the rules for using the file, and the calling rules guide explains the TCPA and Do Not Call rules in more detail.
