TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC: COLTON, California Trucking Company
TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC is a small fleet operating out of COLTON, California with USDOT number 2719962. The company operates 10 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, TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 39/100, classified as High Risk.
FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC has undergone 50 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 30.0%, 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 14%, 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 TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC carries 97 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated October 20, 2026. Across 50 recorded inspections, the record carries 7 driver out-of-service violations and 20 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 TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS 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
TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC is classified by FMCSA as an intrastate non-hazmat 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.
TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC 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: intrastate within 100 miles (10 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: 498,006 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: 10 tractors, 57 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.
Intrastate driver count: 10. 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: Rental Construction Equipment. 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 8 crash events involving TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 2 involved a reported injury, and 8 resulted in a tow-away. 8 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: SR-62 (TWENTYNINE PALMS HWY.), UNINCORPORATED, CA on August 20, 2026.
How TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC Compares to the National Average
Across the 50 recorded inspections, TRINITY EQUIPMENT RENTALS INC's 30.0% vehicle out-of-service rate sits moderately above the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 14.0% driver out-of-service rate sits substantially above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
