FREIGHTSTAR EXPEDITED LLC
FREIGHTSTAR EXPEDITED LLC (USDOT 2020842, MC710955) is an interstate motor carrier based in WEST CHICAGO, IL, operating a mid-size fleet of 144 power units. FMCSA shows operating authority as active for Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods), granted 2013-02-08. The most recent primary liability filing was cancelled effective 2026-05-20 by Artisan & Truckers Casualty 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.

| Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods) | Active GRANTED |
Authority status and insurance status are separate FMCSA files and are not updated together. An active authority record is not a statement that insurance is on file — how long that gap usually lasts.

| BIPD liability | $1,000,000 | ARTISAN & TRUCKERS CASUALTY COMPANY | CA872344627 | Cancelled effective |
Federal minimum for general freight property carriers is $750,000 BIPD. What each filing code means. Cargo coverage is not shown here — why the federal record cannot tell you if your freight is covered.
