Is this you?

Who this is for

Owner-operators, and small and growing fleets up to 20 trucks. If the paperwork is running you instead of the other way around, this is for you.

Built for

  • Owner-operators adding their first trucks
  • Fleets from 1 truck to 20
  • Any business running commercial vehicles: trucking, construction, crane, waste, buses
  • Carriers in Nevada, Arizona, California and Utah
  • Anyone who would rather not spend the weekend on renewal dates

Probably not for you

  • A fleet that already has a safety department
  • Anyone who wants a one-time filing and nothing after it
  • Anyone looking for a lawyer
  • Carriers outside those four states

Price is published for up to 10 trucks. If you run more than that, call me and we will work it out.

What we handle

Every item below is something that can take a truck out of service or cost you money if it lapses. We watch it, do it, and keep the record.

Know the price before you call

What this costs

One price. Month to month. No contract, and no annual markup.

Even the lowest-paid 10% of safety people in the country make about $49,600 a year. The typical one makes $81,100. Five trucks with us runs $5,347 a year.

What's not included

  • We don't attend audits in person.
  • We don't do DOT physicals.
  • We don't collect drug test samples. A consortium runs the testing.
  • We don't audit your ELD logs or your drivers' hours of service. That data lives with your ELD provider.
  • We don't file your BOC-3. An authorized process agent does, and we set that up and keep it current.
  • We don't pay your government fees or taxes. UCR, IRP, IFTA and the 2290 tax are paid to the agency.
  • We don't drive, dispatch or broker freight.
  • We don't repair trucks.
  • We're not lawyers. This isn't legal advice.
No signup, no email, nothing to buy. Would rather talk it through? Call or text.
Read this before you hire anyone

We'll tell you what you can do yourself, and what you can't.

Three of the things you would otherwise pay somebody for, you can do yourself today, for nothing. We would rather you knew which ones, and where the line actually is.

The part you can't do yourself is keeping all of it current, forever, while you're running trucks. That is the job, and it is what you just saw the price of.

What you are actually paying for

How this works

  1. 1
    A short call about your operation. Fifteen minutes, by phone or text. Your trucks, your drivers, your authority, what you haul. Photos of documents are fine. Nothing needs scanning.
  2. 2
    A written report on where you stand. Your USDOT number pulls what the public record already knows. From there we work through your files one driver at a time: applications, medical cards, licenses, MVRs, the drug program, your filings. What is missing, what has expired, and what will bite you next. You get it in writing, with the dates on it.
  3. 3
    Then it is handled, every month, for as long as you are a customer. Nothing runs on memory. Your dates sit on a written checklist built from the federal rules, and every item on it gets checked off. When a medical card is 60 days out, we chase the driver until it is renewed. UCR and the Clearinghouse query get filed before they come due. You hear about a problem before it becomes one.

This is the report you get every month

It is a document, not a screen you log into. It arrives by email, and it prints cleanly if you want it on the office wall.

Dates in 90 days

Here is your month. Short version: nothing is late, and nothing is at risk of being late.

One item needs a decision from you. The annual inspection on Truck 02 is due in 12 days and I still do not have a date back from your shop.

When something goes wrong

What happens when something is wrong

A date lapses, or a letter from FMCSA shows up that you do not understand. Nothing gets quietly filed away and hoped for. Here is the order things happen in.

  1. 1
    It gets caught. Every date is on the calendar, so a lapse does not sit there quietly. If it is something you send me, it goes on the list the day it arrives.
  2. 2
    You hear it plainly. What it is, what happens if it is ignored, and what your choices are. No jargon, and nothing dressed up to look bigger than it is.
  3. 3
    The paperwork starts moving. Whatever can be filed or fixed gets filed or fixed. Where a signature or a government login is yours, it gets put in front of you with the one thing you have to do.
  4. 4
    It gets chased until it is closed. Not a reminder sitting in your inbox. Somebody keeps at it, including chasing you, a driver, a shop or a clinic, until the item is actually done.
  5. 5
    The record gets written down. What was wrong, what was done, and the date. If FMCSA ever asks, the answer is already in your file.
  6. 6
    If it is outside what we can do, you hear that too. Not every problem is ours to fix. If it needs a lawyer, a DOT physical, a drug collection or a decision that is yours, you get told straight and handed what you need to take it from there.

That is the difference between a reminder and a department. A reminder tells you a date is coming. This is somebody doing something about it.

Not a call center

Who you are talking to

Shawn

Las Vegas, Nevada

I'm the one who reads your record and does the work. Not a call center, and not a form that goes into a queue.

I answer the phone. If something is about to lapse, you'll hear it from me before it becomes a problem, not after.

Behind the counter: the public-record check runs on automation, and your files run on a written checklist built from the federal rules. Anything that gets filed, and anything that could be read as advice, is read by a person before it moves.

Before you trust anybody

What you can verify before you trust us

Most of this market asks you to take its word for it. Here is what you can check yourself, and how, before you spend a dollar.

Six things, every one checkable

Why this is different

None of this asks you to take anything on faith, which is the point, because a page like this is exactly where this industry usually oversells.

One thing missing on purpose: there are no reviews on this page, because there is no customer to quote yet. When there is, it goes here with their name on it.

Straight answers

The questions people actually ask

Do I need this, or can I just do it myself?
You can do a lot of it yourself, and this page tells you which parts those are. The MCS-150 is free to file and the FMCSA help desk will walk you through almost anything. What you cannot do is watch every date for every truck and driver, forever, while you are running them. That is the whole job, and it is the only part you are paying for.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. It runs month to month. Cancel whenever you want, and everything in your file is yours. Ask for it and it gets handed over.
What happens if something gets missed?
Every date sits on a written checklist and gets checked off, so a lapse does not sit there quietly. If one happens, you hear it plainly, it gets chased until it is closed, and what happened gets written down. Nobody can promise you will never get a violation, and this is not a guarantee. What you are buying is that nothing goes unwatched.
What do you need from me to start?
One short call about your operation, then the documents you already have. Photos are fine. Nothing needs scanning, and there is no software to set up and no training to sit through.
Are you the government?
No. Rig Compliance is a private company in Las Vegas, Nevada, and is not affiliated with FMCSA or any government agency. Nobody legitimately acting for you will ask for a fee by phone for something the government gives away, and if anyone does, ask them for the source.
Can you get a violation taken off my record?
Sometimes, and only with evidence. A wrong or duplicated violation can be challenged through FMCSA's DataQs system, and two a quarter are included. The agency decides, not us, and it usually takes 30 to 90 days. It corrects the federal safety record. It does not make a state ticket disappear.
Free fixes, no signup

Something already wrong?

Straight answers to the problems that bring people here, including the ones where the fix is free and you do not need to hire anybody.

Every one of these has a real fix. Some of them you can do yourself today for nothing, and each page says which. Nothing here asks for your email first.
