James Archer

Inactive

Authorized for Hire

James Archer is a registered motor carrier with the FMCSA under USDOT number 594453 and MC number 287498. The company operates from Molalla, OR, and currently has an inactive operating status, and has 1 power units and 2 drivers on record. Brokers and shippers should verify authority status before tendering loads to inactive carriers.

This USDOT is inactive

FMCSA lists this carrier as inactive, which means it is not currently authorized to operate. Inactive does not mean the carrier never existed or that the historical data on this page is inaccurate. The record stays on USDOTwatch because brokers, insurers, and compliance teams still need to look up historical entities, audit past bookings, and trace predecessor carriers when reviewing related operations. See the methodology for how inactive records are handled.

Blocking Record Issue

There is a blocking issue on this exact carrier record that should be resolved before booking.

Six things go into this read of James Archer'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.

Authority revocations

Revocation orders FMCSA has issued against James Archer's operating authority. Voluntary revocations are typically requested by the carrier when winding down operations or restructuring. Involuntary revocations are FMCSA enforcement actions, usually triggered by missed insurance filings, missed civil penalty payments, or compliance failures. An involuntary revocation in the recent history is the strongest negative signal on this page.

Authority history

Every operating-authority action FMCSA has recorded against James Archer, sourced from the AuthHist public dataset. This covers original applications, dismissals, grants, suspensions, and reinstatements across every authority type the carrier has held or attempted to hold. A clean history typically shows one or two grant rows and nothing else. Multiple dismissals or revocations are worth a closer look before booking.

Safety

Everything FMCSA has on James Archer'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.

FMCSA Safety Rating

Not Rated

This carrier has not received a formal safety rating from FMCSA. Only carriers that have undergone a compliance review receive a rating. The majority of registered carriers are unrated.

Crash history

Total

Fatal

Injuries

Tow-away

4 crashes reported. That translates to approximately 4000.0 crashes per 1,000 power units.

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 James Archer 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

2.00

High driver-to-truck ratio suggests team driving or multi-shift operations.

Miles per Power Unit

85,994 mi

Moderate utilization typical of regional or LTL operations (2014 data).

Crashes per 1,000 Units

4000.0

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

Insurance history

Every insurance filing FMCSA has on record for James Archer, up to the 25 most recent including cancelled policies. Each row shows the form type, the insurance company, when the policy went into effect, and when (or if) it was cancelled. Common things brokers look for: a recent cancellation with no replacement on file (the carrier may not have valid coverage right now), repeated short-lived policies with different insurers (instability), and the actual coverage amount versus the freight value.

Process agents (BOC-3)

Every state where James Archer has filed a designated agent to receive legal process on its behalf. FMCSA requires a complete BOC-3 filing covering all 50 states (plus DC) before granting interstate operating authority. A carrier listed for fewer than 51 jurisdictions either operates intrastate only, has not yet completed its BOC-3 filing, or has had a state agent terminate without replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions brokers and shippers ask about James Archer and how to interpret the FMCSA data shown on this page.

What is the USDOT number for James Archer?

James Archer is assigned USDOT number 594453 by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. This number uniquely identifies the carrier in federal safety records and is used to track inspections, crashes, compliance reviews, and operating authority over time.

What is the MC number for James Archer?

James Archer's MC number is 287498. The MC (Motor Carrier) number is the operating authority number issued by FMCSA, separate from the USDOT number. It authorizes the carrier to transport regulated commodities for hire in interstate commerce.

Is James Archer authorized to operate?

James Archer's current operating status is INACTIVE. They do not currently have a formal safety rating from FMCSA. Always verify operating authority and request a current insurance certificate before tendering loads.

What does it mean that James Archer is inactive?

An inactive operating status means James Archer's USDOT registration has lapsed, often because they failed to file the required biennial MCS-150 update or chose to deactivate their authority. Inactive carriers are not currently authorized to operate. Do not tender loads to inactive carriers without first verifying current authority directly with FMCSA.

How many crashes has James Archer been involved in?

FMCSA records 4 reported crashes for James Archer over a rolling 24-month window, including 0 fatal, 10 injury, and 3 tow-away crashes. Crash counts include both preventable and non-preventable events. Always evaluate raw counts against fleet size and miles driven.

How large is James Archer's fleet?

James Archer operates 1 power units (trucks and tractors) and reports 2 drivers on their FMCSA MCS-150 form. Fleet figures are self-reported and updated biennially, so the live operational fleet may differ slightly.

Where is James Archer located?

James Archer is headquartered in Molalla, Oregon at 32998 S Highway 213. They operate in interstate commerce across state lines.

What does "Not Rated" mean?

"Not Rated" means FMCSA has not conducted a formal compliance review for this carrier. It does not indicate a safety problem on its own. The vast majority of registered carriers operate without a formal rating because compliance reviews are typically only triggered by elevated risk indicators, complaints, or scheduled audits. Use BASIC scores, inspection history, and crash records to evaluate unrated carriers.

How often is FMCSA data updated?

FMCSA refreshes carrier census data daily. Inspection and crash records are typically published within 30 days of the underlying event. Safety ratings and BASIC scores update on FMCSA's monthly cycle. The "last checked" timestamp at the bottom of this page shows when the most recent FMCSA poll happened.

Should I monitor James Archer for changes?

If you tender loads to James Archer regularly, monitoring is worth considering. Operating authority can lapse, insurance can drop, and safety ratings can change between bookings. Email alerts surface those changes the moment FMCSA publishes them, so you find out before your next load instead of after a problem on the road.

Where does this data come from?

All data on this page is sourced from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) via the DOT Open Data Portal. It includes the Company Census File, roadside inspection records, crash reports, and SMS/BASIC safety scores. Data is self-reported by carriers and updated regularly by FMCSA. For the authoritative single-source-of-truth record, cross-reference with FMCSA SAFER.
