Is this carrier bookable?

Bookable

Nothing here stands out as an immediate reason not to use this carrier.

Six things go into this read of Echo Brook Freight Inc's record: operating authority, out-of-service status, insurance filings, safety rating, BASIC percentile scores, and MCS-150 freshness. Every one of them comes straight from the public FMCSA record. None of them tell you how the carrier handles damage claims or hits delivery windows, so always pull a fresh insurance certificate from the carrier and confirm rates and contact details on a current rate confirmation before you tender.

Safety

Everything FMCSA has on Echo Brook Freight Inc's safety record: the formal safety rating, behavior-analysis BASIC scores, full inspection and crash totals, and operational metrics like drivers per power unit and annual miles per power unit. Numbers below the national average sit in the green; numbers well above are worth a closer look.

BASIC safety scores

FMCSA grades every carrier across seven safety categories called BASICs (Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Categories). Each score is a percentile from 0 to 100, calculated from the carrier's roadside inspections, crash reports, and investigation results over a rolling 24-month window. Higher scores mean more recorded violations relative to similar carriers. Scores at or above 75 can flag a carrier for FMCSA intervention and are worth a closer look before tendering. Scores below 65 sit within normal range.

Fleet profile

Owner-operator / very small (under 10 units)

Raw fleet counts only tell you so much about a carrier. A 100-truck fleet with 300 drivers is almost certainly running team or multi-shift over-the-road operations. A 100-truck fleet with 90 drivers is more likely owner-operators, regional, or local work. The ratios below are calculated from FMCSA fleet, mileage, and inspection data and show you how Echo Brook Freight Inc actually runs day to day. That helps you judge whether their capacity, utilization, and safety performance match the kind of load you're looking to tender.

Drivers per Power Unit

0.80

Lower than one driver per truck suggests owner-operators or part-time drivers.

Miles per Power Unit

42,448 mi

Lower utilization often seen with local, dedicated, or specialty operations (2023 data).

Inspections per Power Unit

0.6

Lower inspection activity, sometimes seen with local or low-mileage operations.

Crashes per 1,000 Units

4200.0

Significantly above industry average (3.2 per 1,000 units).

A Satisfactory rating is the highest rating issued by FMCSA following a compliance review. It means Echo Brook Freight Inc demonstrated adequate safety management controls during the review.

Should I monitor Echo Brook Freight Inc for changes?

If you tender loads to Echo Brook Freight Inc regularly, monitoring is worth considering. Operating authority can lapse, insurance can drop, and safety ratings can change between bookings.
