Census Watchlist

Keep up with changes to carrier registry records.

Upload up to 10,000 USDOTs. Receive dated census change alerts for those records, including authority-slot transitions, address changes, fleet growth and entity deactivation.

Included changes

  • Authority slots becoming active, inactive or reactivated across the three census dockets
  • Address changes
  • Reported power-unit count increases
  • An active entity becoming inactive

Contact quality does not suppress changes for matched USDOTs on your list.

Not covered yet

Insurance lapses, revocations, out-of-service orders, general safety monitoring, fleet reductions and every possible entity-status transition.

A census authority inactivation does not establish why the status changed. Use the relevant official system to investigate; this feed does not certify that a carrier is safe, insured or qualified.

How the Watchlist works

  1. Paste or upload your USDOT list before checkout.
  2. Receive the first scheduled census-change delivery after source checks pass.
  3. Replace or append USDOTs using your email sign-in link.

Delivery runs after source checks pass, usually by the following morning Eastern, using the latest completed source day. Source delays or failed checks can postpone delivery. Quiet days get a short status email. Unmatched USDOTs cannot generate alerts until they appear in the source.

Choose it for a specific follow-up workflow

Use an address change to review a customer's records, or fleet growth to decide whether a service conversation is useful. Confirm that these census signals cover the action your team intends to take before subscribing.
