ZT EQUIPMENT LLC: AUBREY, Texas Trucking Company
ZT EQUIPMENT LLC is a mid-size fleet operating out of AUBREY, Texas with USDOT number 2370806. The company operates 21 power units and holds a current FMCSA safety rating of Satisfactory. Based on our analysis of federal safety data, ZT EQUIPMENT LLC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 69/100, classified as Moderate Risk.
FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
ZT EQUIPMENT LLC has undergone 50 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 34.0%, 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 8%, 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 ZT EQUIPMENT LLC carries 185 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated April 25, 2026. Across 50 recorded inspections, the record carries 4 driver out-of-service violations and 27 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 69/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for ZT EQUIPMENT LLC: 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. 69 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Moderate Risk band.
Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile
ZT EQUIPMENT LLC is classified by FMCSA as an interstate carrier.
The carrier is classified as Private Property, meaning it transports its own goods incidental to its primary business, exempt from MC-number authority but still subject to safety regulations under 49 CFR Part 390.
ZT EQUIPMENT LLC is flagged in FMCSA Census as a hazardous materials carrier (HM indicator: Y). Hazmat carriers are subject to additional regulations under 49 CFR Subchapter C, including HM-126 reporting, HM-232 security planning, and the Hazmat Cargo Tank Annual Inspection requirement (49 CFR 180.407). Hazmat violations carry their own, higher penalty schedule, separate from the general FMCSA schedule.
Operational range per MCS-150 filing: interstate beyond 100 miles (long-haul, 11 drivers); intrastate within 100 miles (1 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: 2,181,373 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: 25 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.
The carrier reports 12 CDL-holding drivers on file. Each CDL driver must have a current Driver Qualification File (DQF) maintained per 49 CFR 391.51, including a Medical Examiner's Certificate, an annual MVR review, and a record of road-test results.
Intrastate driver count: 1. Intrastate drivers may be subject to state-specific CDL endorsement and hours-of-service variances depending on the state.
Primary cargo type per MCS-150: Sand And Gravel. Cargo type drives which BASIC categories the carrier is monitored under (Hazmat Compliance applies only to HM-flagged carriers; Cargo-Related Crash applies broadly).
FMCSA Crash History
The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 20 crash events involving ZT EQUIPMENT LLC in the available reporting window. Of these, 1 involved a fatality, 9 involved a reported injury, and 19 resulted in a tow-away. 20 events meet the federal-recordable threshold under 49 CFR 390.5 (fatality, injury treated away from the scene, OR tow-away of any vehicle).
Most recent recorded event: OK-1, MILL CREEK, OK on November 12, 2025.
ZT EQUIPMENT LLC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend
Inspections cluster geographically across Texas (44), Oklahoma (3), Louisiana (2). The concentration in Texas is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams ZT EQUIPMENT LLC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.
How ZT EQUIPMENT LLC Compares to the National Average
Across the 50 recorded inspections, ZT EQUIPMENT LLC's 34.0% vehicle out-of-service rate sits substantially above the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 8.0% driver out-of-service rate sits moderately above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
