Your FMCSA record,
in plain English.

You got into trucking to haul loads, not to read government paperwork. RigsReady reads your public FMCSA record and sends you a clear snapshot: what's on file, what's coming due, and exactly where to fix it.

Free · No credit card · We'll ask for your USDOT next

✓ Built from public FMCSA data ✓ Facts only, never legal advice ✓ Zero fake deadlines
1,600+ new carriers register with FMCSA every week. We count them in the public record
$0 what the most common required filings cost when you do them at the official FMCSA site
$10,000 the fine for skipping one free update can reach this. We flag it long before that

Why RigsReady

You've seen the scary letters. We're the opposite.

The moment your USDOT number goes live, your mailbox fills with official-looking mail built to scare you into paying for free filings. Here is the truth: the fines those letters wave around are real. The fake part is the rush and the price. We show you the real stakes and the free fix.

The letter in your mailbox

Fear, urgency, hidden fees

"FINAL NOTICE: Failure to respond within 72 HOURS may result in fines up to $10,000 and REVOCATION of your authority…"

  • ✕ Looks government-issued. Isn't.
  • ✕ Charges you for filings that are free.
  • ✕ Invents deadlines to rush your card out.
  • ✕ Tells you nothing about your actual record.
The RigsReady way

Facts, calm, official sources

  • ✓ Shows exactly what your public record says. Nothing made up, ever.
  • ✓ Points every item to the official FMCSA page or phone number to handle it.
  • ✓ Tells you when a filing is free, because most of them are.
  • ✓ Clearly states what we are: a private service, not the government, not lawyers.

How it works

Three steps. No paperwork on your end.

Everything we report comes straight from your public FMCSA record. It is the same record brokers, shippers, and insurers see.

01

Tell us your USDOT number

That's it. One number. If you don't have it handy, your name and email is enough to start.

02

We read your public record

We pull your live FMCSA data: operating status, MCS-150 standing, insurance on file, authority, and safety record.

03

You get the plain-English version

A one-page snapshot of where you stand, what's coming due, and the official (free) places to handle each item.

Questions

Fair questions. Straight answers.

Is this a government service?

No. And we will never pretend to be. RigsReady is a private service, not affiliated with FMCSA or the U.S. Department of Transportation. Everything in your snapshot comes from your public FMCSA record, and every action item points to the official government page to handle it.

What does the snapshot actually contain?

Your operating status, out-of-service standing, MCS-150 (biennial update) status, insurance on file, active operating authority, and crash record, all in plain English, with a short "what to do next" list pointing to official FMCSA resources.

Why is it free?

The snapshot is how we introduce ourselves. If you find it useful, we're building ongoing monitoring so you never miss a filing window. That is the part we will charge for later. No surprise invoices, ever.

Is this legal advice?

No. We report what your public record says and flag items to check. We do not interpret regulations for your situation or tell you whether you're "compliant." For legal questions, talk to a transportation attorney.
