From LLC to
first load.

Formation websites stop at the LLC. Authority filers stop at the MC number. We take a new car hauler through every filing, set up your own load board accounts, and show each step on your phone until you are booking loads.

How it works

Answer every question once, e-sign the agreement and limited power of attorney, and watch each step move.

  1. Day 0: the companyLimited liability company (LLC) filed with your state and an Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the Internal Revenue Service.
  2. Day 0: the authorityUSDOT number, Motor Carrier (MC) operating authority, process agent designation (BOC-3) and Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
  3. Day 0: insurance quotesThe slowest step, so it starts first, with licensed agents who write car haulers.
  4. Days 1 to 21: plates and taxesInternational Registration Plan (IRP) plates, International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA), New York Highway Use Tax (HUT) and IRS Form 2290. Renewals then run through New York One-Stop Credentialing and Registration (OSCAR).
  5. Authority active: load boardsYour own Central Dispatch and Super Dispatch carrier accounts, ready the day you can haul.

Why choose us

Vlad Lyubezhanin built a car-hauling company to 31 trucks, ran its dispatch himself, and sold it. The terms are confidential. Every step on this page is one he took for his own company: the LLC, the authority, the insurance, the plates and fuel tax, the load boards, and booking loads faster than everyone else on them. You get the same playbook, and the person who wrote it answers your texts.

Free in the everything bundle. Your own Central Dispatch and Super Dispatch carrier accounts. You create the logins and keep the passwords; we prepare the documents and follow up until both are approved.

Typical government fees: USDOT $0, MC $300, BOC-3 about $25 to $50, UCR from $46 a year for 1 to 2 trucks; state LLC fees vary, and New York also requires the new LLC to publish a notice in two newspapers. Car hauler insurance is usually the largest start-up cost.

Then book faster than everyone else

Once you are hauling, CarHaulHQ is the software we built to win loads on the boards.

We prepare and file documents on your behalf. We are not a law firm, accounting firm or insurance agency, and nothing here is legal or tax advice. Agencies, insurers and load boards make their own decisions on their own timing; no approval is guaranteed. Federal operating authority normally becomes active about 21 days after filing, once insurance is on file. A few steps only the company owner can do: the federal identity check, a hand-signed New York tax form, and a notarized New York plate form. We tell you exactly when. We are not affiliated with the Unified Carrier Registration Plan; you may register directly at www.ucr.gov.
