Do I need a MC number for gravel and asphalt?

Depends entirely on What you’re doing and Where
Check with your State DMV

 

I think it’s going to depends if you cross state lines .

If you cross state lines you most likely need one .
If not , you need a STATE DOT number which is different from the federal DOT number .

 

If you’re crossing state lines for hire you’ll almost certainly need DOT number

Do you know anyone who’s running a similar business ?

if so just call them , take em to
Lunch and ask

 

If its an exempt product you don't need an MC, even if crossing state lines. But I think asphalt and rock are NOT exempt.

 

Call OOIDA, they’ll give you the correct information you need.

 

I used to think that if you are staying in state all you need is a DOT number, but according to the FMCSA (https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/faq/what-operating-authority-mc-number-and-who-needs-it) anyone operating as for-hire carriers (for a fee or other compensation) needs an MC as well. But I have heard they are getting rid of the MC number.

 

Asphalt yes, gravel no
