Executive Public Baseline Summary
FMCSA registration filings designate UNITY COURIER SERVICE INC (USDOT 2669102 / MC-1602875) in Burbank, CA as a freight brokerage entity rather than an asset-operating motor carrier. Because broker-only authorities are not licensed to haul freight on their own commercial tractors, shippers tendered a truck under this registration should verify the actual underlying hauling motor carrier before releasing cargo.
Safety & capacity baseline: The carrier's federal safety rating is UNRATED (No Formal Compliance Audit); 24-month Vehicle OOS rate is 5.9% across 51 eligible Level 1/2/5/6 inspections (vs. 22.3% U.S. national benchmark), and Driver OOS rate is 5.0% across 60 Level 1/2/3/6 inspections (vs. 6.7% national benchmark). FMCSA Crash File records list 2 reportable crash(es) in the past 24 months (1 fatal, 0 injury, 2 tow-away).
