DS XPRESS INCORPORATED (USDOT 2143509, MC721574) is an interstate motor carrier based in FRESNO, CA, operating a fleet of 13 power units. FMCSA shows operating authority as active for Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods), granted 2011-08-02. The most recent primary liability filing was cancelled effective 2026-08-05 by MS Transverse Specialty 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.
