Driven or Hauled? Safety isn’t optional.

At 251 Logistics, we don’t deliver vehicles by driving them — we haul them on a trailer, as industry standards and FMCSA regulations recommend.

We comply with FMCSA safety guidelines, ensuring your vehicle arrives without added miles, no wear and tear, and fully insured.

Trust professional, secure, and authorized transport.
Your vehicle deserves to arrive like new!

Before you move a single car, your vehicle transport business must be legally registered and properly protected. This chapter breaks down the essential steps:
	1.	Register your business (LLC) at Sunbiz.org – it protects your personal assets and is your first legal step.
	2.	Get your EIN at irs.gov/ein – it’s free and required for business banking and taxes.
	3.	Apply for your Local Business Tax Receipt – in Gainesville, this is handled by the city, not the county.
	4.	Get basic commercial insurance – at a minimum, you’ll need:
	•	Liability insurance
	•	Physical damage insurance for your truck
	•	Later, you’ll need cargo insurance if operating interstate
	5.	Register your truck as a commercial vehicle – make sure you have the proper plates and meet DMV requirements.
	6.	Open a business bank account – never mix personal and business funds.Ford has launched a new advertising campaign called “From America, For America”, offering employee pricing to the general public on a wide range of 2024 and 2025 models, including the Ford Maverick.
This promotion is valid from April 3 through June 2, 2025.

Ford ha lanzado una nueva campaña publicitaria llamada “From America, For America” que ofrece precios de empleado al público en general en una amplia gama de modelos 2024 y 2025, incluyendo el Ford Maverick. Esta promoción estará vigente desde el 3 de abril hasta el 2 de junio de 2025. What Is a Florida Apportioned Plate?

If your truck operates across state lines, you’ll need a Florida Apportioned License Plate under the International Registration Plan (IRP).

What does it mean?
An apportioned plate allows your commercial vehicle to legally operate in multiple states or provinces with one plate and one registration. Fees are divided between the states based on the miles you travel in each.

Who needs it?
	•	Vehicles over 26,000 lbs
	•	Vehicles with 3+ axles
	•	Trucks crossing state lines for business

What do you get?
	•	A plate marked “Apportioned”
	•	A Cab Card listing approved states

Where to register?
In Florida, apply through the FLHSMV IRP Office or a local tag agency like CSATAG.

Tip: Don’t risk fines—make sure your truck is properly registered if you’re hauling beyond Florida!🚛 Ensure Proper Identification of Your Truck According to FMCSA Regulations! 🚛

To comply with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations and promote road safety, it’s essential that your commercial vehicle displays the following information on both sides:
	1.	Legal or Trade Name:
	•	The legal name or a single trade name of your motor carrier, as indicated on your Form MCS-150.
	2.	USDOT Number:
	•	The identification number issued by the FMCSA, preceded by the letters “USDOT.”

Key Specifications:
	•	Contrast and Legibility:
	•	Markings must sharply contrast with the background color and be legible from at least 50 feet during daylight hours. 
	•	Maintenance:
	•	Ensure that all markings are maintained to preserve their legibility over time.

Adhering to these FMCSA requirements is crucial for legal operation and safety compliance in the transportation industry.Customer Delivery with Care
