PLETCHER TRANSPORT LLC
PLETCHER TRANSPORT LLC (USDOT 1568622, MC581301) is an interstate motor carrier based in ELKHART, IN, operating a small fleet of 6 power units. FMCSA shows operating authority as active for Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods), granted 2025-04-16. The most recent primary liability filing was cancelled effective 2025-05-28 by Progressive Southeastern Insurance Company, and no replacement filing is on record. Authority status and insurance status are held in separate FMCSA files and are not updated together, so an active authority line is not confirmation that coverage is on file. These figures are read from FMCSA Licensing & Insurance and SAFER on 2026-09-23; MC Sentry reports what is on file and does not rate or recommend carriers.
