Operator changes (inspection records)
When consecutive FMCSA inspections list different operating USDOT numbers for this VIN. Common after fleet transfers; can also reflect data-entry errors on rare tickets.
How to read this: FMCSA inspection records show which carrier operated the vehicle on a given date, not the legal owner. A single change may reflect a sale, sublease, or fleet reassignment.
| Approximate date | From carrier | To carrier |
|---|---|---|
| Between Oct 1, 2024 and Nov 14, 2024 | WATKINS TOWING AND RECOVERY LLC | WATKINS HEAVY HAULING LLC |
| Between Nov 14, 2024 and Jan 14, 2025 | WATKINS HEAVY HAULING LLC | EDWARDS INC |
| Between Jan 14, 2025 and Feb 14, 2025 | EDWARDS INC | WATKINS TOWING AND RECOVERY LLC |
We say "Sale/auction not necessarily implied" — we see a change in operator USDOT in inspection records, which may indicate a sale, lease, or operational reassignment.
