Green meets the public yardstick, yellow is worth a closer look, red is a stop and check, grey means FMCSA has no data. Each box is one fact from the record. HauLens does not rate carriers; the decision is yours.

What this page cannot tell you
Is the person emailing you really ABF FREIGHT SYSTEM INC?
Most double brokering starts with a real carrier's MC number in someone else's email. You just checked the record by hand. HauLens does it inside Gmail on every carrier email, and checks the part no lookup can: who is actually writing to you.
- This record opens by itself beside every carrier email, before you finish reading it.
- The sender is checked against the contact FMCSA has on file for ABF FREIGHT SYSTEM INC, plus how old their email domain is.
- Your reply is already written from the load they are asking about. You read it and hit send.
