THOMAS M MUSHERO JR
THOMAS M MUSHERO JR (USDOT 961406, MC46255) is an interstate motor carrier based in LINCOLN, ME, operating a small fleet of 2 power units. FMCSA shows operating authority as active for Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods), granted 2017-09-22. The most recent primary liability filing was cancelled effective 2025-11-13 by Progressive Northern 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.
