US and cross-border trucking companies data
The active FMCSA Company Census has more rows than one Excel worksheet can hold. It covers US-domiciled carriers plus Canadian and Mexican cross-border operators, with USDOT and MC numbers, operating authority, fleet size, drivers and cargo carried. Filter by state or province, city, fleet size, cargo, classification or registration date first, then download only the companies you need, or query them through the API or your AI agent. Company-level only: no phone numbers, emails or officer names.
Skip the gated broker monitoring subscriptions (Carrier411, SaferWatch): the same FMCSA census, as a spreadsheet you own.

Get a carrier list that fits in Excel
The official FMCSA Company Census File is free to download. If you only need a territory or fleet-size segment, start with one of these editable lists:
- Texas carriers with 21–100 power units. Start with a state and fleet-size band, then narrow by city or cargo.
- California carriers carrying general freight. Cargo is a reported category, not proof of a current route or available capacity.
- Carriers based in Chicago, Illinois. State and city describe the registered physical address, not the territory served.
From census records to a usable spreadsheet
- Open a list above and adjust its filters. Check the matching-row count and recorded import date.
- Download the free sample of up to 25 rows. Check the business names, USDOT numbers, physical addresses, power units and driver counts before paying.
- When the sample matches your task, use the list builder to buy the complete filtered CSV at the displayed price. A single export needs no account.
- In Excel, choose Data → From Text/CSV. Use UTF-8 and comma-separated fields; keep USDOT, MC and ZIP identifiers as text so Excel preserves their formatting.
- Keep the filtered result below Excel’s 1,048,576-row worksheet limit, allowing one row for the CSV header. Add a state, city or fleet filter if the list is still too large.
Review the FMCSA dataset’s CSV sample, full column list and latest import date. DataScoop’s default copy contains active registrations. An active registration does not establish current operating authority, insurance or safety; verify a carrier in the relevant FMCSA system before using it for a contracting decision. Phone numbers, emails and officer names are excluded.
