R W STEVENS INC
R W STEVENS INC (USDOT 567389, MC281640) is an interstate motor carrier based in TRUSSVILLE, AL, operating a small fleet of 6 power units. FMCSA shows operating authority as active for Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods), granted 2021-06-14. The insurance file carries a $75,000 BMC-84 filing from Hartford Fire Insurance Company, effective 1996-03-27. 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.

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.
