FreshAuthority / New authority leads by state / California
Every for-hire motor carrier FMCSA granted operating authority in California, delivered as a clean CSV before your competitors open their inbox — current insurer and policy date first, then phone, email, fleet size and cargo. Plus the two trigger files: California carriers renewing in the next 60 days, and carriers whose liability just lapsed.
Counted from the FMCSA public file dated October 30, 2026 — for-hire motor carrier authority grants, October 1 – October 30, 2026; renewals counted by liability-policy anniversary; lapses are cancellations with no replacement filing on record. Refreshed as new files publish.
California ranked #2 of the 50 states for new trucking authority grants in the last 30 days. Every one of those grants is a carrier that just had to buy the policy you sell.
In the last 30 days FMCSA granted 635 new for-hire authorities in California. Every one of those carriers had to put liability insurance on file to activate — which means every one of them just made the exact purchase trucking insurance agents sell, and set a renewal date an agent can work a year from now. Another 1,044 California carriers have a liability renewal landing in the next 60 days, with their current insurer named in our file, and 253 let their liability filing lapse in the last 30 days with no replacement on record — carriers who need a new policy to keep their authority.
California grants land in your inbox by 6:00 AM ET the morning after they post — up to three hours before services that deliver around 8:00 AM Central, and hours before digest services that land mid-morning.
The renewals file lists California carriers whose policy anniversary falls in the next 60 days, current insurer named on every row. That is your requote list, 60 days early. See the California renewals page →
A cancelled liability filing with no replacement puts the carrier's authority on the path to revocation. The lapse file lists California's while fixing it is still their most urgent problem.

Source: FMCSA public Licensing & Insurance and census records, file dated October 30, 2026. Rows are shown newest first, as delivered.
Three files in every plan — no trigger upsell at any tier. Sixteen fields per row, ordered the way agents work a list: insurer and BIPD effective date first, then carrier, contacts, fleet and cargo.
If fewer than 95% of rows in a file have a working phone or email, that month is free. Point us at the file, we check it against the filing data, and if it falls below 95% you don't pay for that month. In our October 30, 2026 build run, 100.00% of new-grant rows carried a phone or an email.
