Every U.S. DOT and FMCSA requirement a motor carrier will ever face — handled. One team. Nationwide. Free compliance check with every call.
Hoffenmer is an FMCSA-approved, BBB-accredited, DUNS-certified compliance firm serving motor carriers, owner-operators, and fleet companies across all 50 states and Canada.
Every regulation handled is cited by the exact CFR code that requires it. Every call is free — whether or not a service is ever completed. No scams. No unnecessary services. No upsells. Just compliance done right, at the lowest service fees in the industry.
A specialist is on the line. Regulations change — carriers shouldn’t have to track that themselves.
The FMCSA imposes dozens of regulations — but not every one applies to every carrier. Hoffenmer identifies what is required, cites the code, and handles it.
Every service is cited by the exact CFR code that requires it. The official source is always provided so carriers can verify independently — Hoffenmer or otherwise.
If a regulation doesn’t apply to the operation, that’s what gets said. Carriers are never sold something they don’t need. The call is always free. No obligation, ever.
From a brand-new DOT number to a full Safety Compliance program — every federal requirement a carrier faces throughout the life of the business is handled under one roof.
Hoffenmer serves motor carriers from every state and province. State permits, IFTA, IRP, TxDMV, and federal requirements handled regardless of where the carrier is based.
Hoffenmer matches any service fee in the industry. Many services are handled free of charge — including all phone and chat support, and the Random Drug & Alcohol tests themselves.
Phone, email, and live chat support available Monday through Friday during business hours. Regulations change — subscribers receive free compliance reminders automatically.
The industry’s best-priced random testing program. No annual company fee. No sign-up fees. No limit on random tests. $150 per driver covers everything — with 7,000+ testing labs nationwide, the closest lab is always nearby.
Not sure if a regulation applies? Call — it’s free whether or not a service is ever completed. A specialist identifies what applies to the specific operation, cites the regulation code, and provides the official source. No obligation. No upsell. The call costs nothing and can save thousands in unnecessary fees or missed compliance.
