FAMILY SEAFOOD INC: SCARBOROUGH, Maine Trucking Company

FAMILY SEAFOOD INC is a small fleet operating out of SCARBOROUGH, Maine with USDOT number 954831. The company operates 6 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, FAMILY SEAFOOD INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 63/100, classified as Moderate Risk.

FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History

FAMILY SEAFOOD INC has undergone 7 recorded DOT inspections. The driver out-of-service rate is 28.6%, 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 FAMILY SEAFOOD INC carries 8 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated June 22, 2026. Across 7 recorded inspections, the record carries 2 driver out-of-service violations and 0 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 63/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means

The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for FAMILY SEAFOOD 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. 63 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Moderate Risk band.

Maine Trucking Compliance: SCARBOROUGH Area Carriers

FAMILY SEAFOOD INC falls under the Eastern Service Center for FMCSA field-office oversight (region code 01). Service-center territory drives which FMCSA Investigator team would conduct a new-entrant audit or compliance review if one is triggered for this carrier.

Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile

FAMILY SEAFOOD INC 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.

Business organization type: Individual.

FAMILY SEAFOOD 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, 4 drivers); interstate within 100 miles (short-haul, 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.

Self-reported MCS-150 annual mileage: 50,000 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: 6 straight trucks. 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: Shellfish. 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 1 crash event involving FAMILY SEAFOOD INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 1 involved a reported injury, and 0 resulted in a tow-away. 1 event meets 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: MAIN RD, Holden, ME on November 15, 2016.

FAMILY SEAFOOD INC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend

Inspections cluster geographically across Massachusetts (4), Maine (3). The concentration in Massachusetts is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams FAMILY SEAFOOD INC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.

How FAMILY SEAFOOD INC Compares to the National Average

Across the 7 recorded inspections, FAMILY SEAFOOD INC's 0.0% vehicle out-of-service rate sits materially below the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 28.6% driver out-of-service rate sits substantially above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
