JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC: OSCODA, Michigan Trucking Company

JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC is a small fleet operating out of OSCODA, Michigan with USDOT number 4387513. 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, JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 39/100, classified as High Risk.

FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History

JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC has undergone 4 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 75.0%, 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 25%, 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 JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC carries 39 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated August 24, 2026. Across 4 recorded inspections, the record carries 1 driver out-of-service violation and 10 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 JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES 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. 39 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's High Risk band.

Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile

JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC is classified by FMCSA as an intrastate non-hazmat carrier.

The carrier holds an Authorized 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.

JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES 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: intrastate within 100 miles (2 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.

Fleet Composition and Driver Profile

Owned equipment per the FMCSA Census filing: 5 straight trucks, 2 tractors. 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 2 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: 2. 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: Other. Cargo type drives which BASIC categories the carrier is monitored under (Hazmat Compliance applies only to HM-flagged carriers; Cargo-Related Crash applies broadly).

How JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC Compares to the National Average

Across the 4 recorded inspections, JDL EXCAVATION AND SERVICES LLC's 75.0% vehicle out-of-service rate sits substantially above the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 25.0% driver out-of-service rate sits substantially above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
