Carrier ownership transitions
Each row marks a change in operator USDOT in inspection records, which may indicate a sale, lease, or operational reassignment.
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 20, 2023 and Feb 14, 2024 | TRIPLE S STEEL OF GEORGIA LLC | ABF FREIGHT SYSTEM INC |
| Between Feb 14, 2024 and Jul 15, 2024 | ABF FREIGHT SYSTEM INC | BLUE APPLE BUS COMPANY |
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.
