FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC has undergone 39 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 53.8%, which is above the national average of 20.72%. This elevated rate indicates potential maintenance or pre-trip inspection deficiencies that could lead to roadside violations. The driver out-of-service rate is 17.9%, above the national average of 5.51%. Common causes include hours-of-service violations, expired medical certificates, and CDL issues.
Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status
The public FMCSA record for BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC carries 97 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 8, 2026. Across 39 recorded inspections, the record carries 7 driver out-of-service violations and 32 vehicle out-of-service violations.
A recorded violation is what an inspector wrote down at the roadside. It is not a penalty, and it is not an amount owed: FMCSA assesses civil penalties only after a compliance review classifies specific cited violations. The step that changes this record is the document behind each line, so the next move is to see which records an investigator would ask for and which of them exist today.
What a 39/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC: the safety rating, the inspection pass rate and the out-of-service rate against the national average. It is not an FMCSA score, and FMCSA does not use it to choose carriers for an investigation. 39 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's High Risk band.
Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile
BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC is classified by FMCSA as an interstate carrier.
The carrier holds an Authorized For Hire;Exempt For Hire classification, meaning it transports cargo or passengers for compensation under FMCSA operating authority and is subject to MC-number requirements at 49 CFR Part 365.
BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC is not flagged in FMCSA Census as a hazmat carrier (HM indicator: N), so the carrier is not subject to the additional 49 CFR Subchapter C hazmat regulations.
Operational range per MCS-150 filing: interstate beyond 100 miles (long-haul, 20 drivers). The 100-mile boundary matters because drivers operating within a 100-air-mile radius qualify for the short-haul exception under 49 CFR 395.1(e)(1), which removes the requirement to maintain RODS for the day.
Self-reported MCS-150 annual mileage: 250,000 miles. MCS-150 mileage feeds the FMCSA SafeStat exposure denominator: drastically understated mileage can artificially inflate CSA BASIC percentile scores by reducing the per-mile exposure baseline. Updates are required every 24 months under 49 CFR 390.19.
Fleet Composition and Driver Profile
Owned equipment per the FMCSA Census filing: 22 straight trucks, 15 trailers. Owned-vs-leased equipment matters for compliance documentation, owned trailers require the carrier to retain annual inspection certificates under 49 CFR 396.17, while leased trailers shift that documentation responsibility to the lease agreement.
Primary cargo type per MCS-150: Plants Trees Mulch Machinery. Cargo type drives which BASIC categories the carrier is monitored under (Hazmat Compliance applies only to HM-flagged carriers; Cargo-Related Crash applies broadly).
BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend
Inspections cluster geographically across Maryland (35), West Virginia (3), Pennsylvania (1). The concentration in Maryland is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.
How BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC Compares to the National Average
Across the 39 recorded inspections, BOTANICA ENTERPRISES INC's 53.8% vehicle out-of-service rate sits substantially above the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 17.9% driver out-of-service rate sits substantially above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
