What Kind of insurance we talking about.
How much of each do I need to have most brokers even consider me?
process agent? Might you clarify what this is?
UCR is another new term to me.
Haven't heard anything about IFTA or anything about any tax papers I know I'm goinna have to file.
I know my friend had to fill out and file a form about heavy road use tax and probably some others.
Permits is probably something I'd have to call state by state. I know I'll need an IFTA, probably a KYU to start. Not sure if I plan on doing New York, not even sure if they still have a seperate HUT permit anymore but I'm prety sure I can get most of these things at the first weigh station in the state or just call ahead of time.
For insurance $750,000 in liability to be legal but most brokers from what I understand will want a minimum of $1,000,000 in coverage and $100,000 of cargo coverage.
On your Heavy Highway Use Tax I am pretty sure you do that through a local IRS office and your IFTA you will register through your statei think.
UCR is your Universal Carrier Registration and you can also do that online.
For processing agents you have to have a BOC-3 filled out and set up,it is so you have a processing agent in every state you run in. OOIDA can get you set up with this with membership to them.
