JOSEPH GRYGELKO: LORETTO, Minnesota Trucking Company

JOSEPH GRYGELKO is a small fleet operating out of LORETTO, Minnesota with USDOT number 2426685. The company operates 7 power units and has no published FMCSA safety rating (most active carriers are unrated unless they have undergone a compliance review). Based on our analysis of federal safety data, JOSEPH GRYGELKO has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 49/100, classified as Elevated Risk.

FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History

JOSEPH GRYGELKO has undergone 13 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 30.8%, 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 23.1%, 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 JOSEPH GRYGELKO carries 39 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 19, 2026. Across 13 recorded inspections, the record carries 4 driver out-of-service violations and 5 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 49/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means

The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for JOSEPH GRYGELKO: 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. 49 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Elevated Risk band.

Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile

JOSEPH GRYGELKO 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.

JOSEPH GRYGELKO 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 within 100 miles (short-haul, 6 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: 150,000 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: 3 straight trucks, 4 tractors, 6 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 6 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.

Primary cargo type per MCS-150: Trees Shrubs Sod Material. Cargo type drives which BASIC categories the carrier is monitored under (Hazmat Compliance applies only to HM-flagged carriers; Cargo-Related Crash applies broadly).

JOSEPH GRYGELKO's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend

Inspections cluster geographically across Wisconsin (4), Minnesota (4), Montana (3). The concentration in Wisconsin is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams JOSEPH GRYGELKO's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.

How JOSEPH GRYGELKO Compares to the National Average

Across the 13 recorded inspections, JOSEPH GRYGELKO's 30.8% vehicle out-of-service rate sits moderately above the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 23.1% driver out-of-service rate sits substantially above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
