About CDL360

We built CDL360 because carriers deserved better than guessing at compliance. After 20+ years in DOT regulatory work, we created the fleet compliance authority carriers can actually rely on.

Our Story

Built by Compliance Experts, for Carriers Who Can't Afford to Guess

CDL360 was founded by a team of former FMCSA investigators, carrier compliance officers, and DOT defense attorneys who understood both sides of the compliance equation. We watched carriers fail audits for preventable reasons — missing documents, outdated procedures, unchallenged CSA violations — and we knew we could fix it.

Our first client was a 12-truck carrier in Texas who was facing an Unsatisfactory safety rating. We built their entire compliance program from scratch in 60 days. They passed their compliance review with zero violations. That carrier is still a client today — now operating 85 trucks.

Today CDL360 serves 2,500+ carriers across all 48 contiguous states, from owner-operators to 500-truck fleets. Our approach has never changed: close every compliance gap before the FMCSA finds it.

Our Core Principles

Proactive, Not Reactive

We find your compliance gaps before the FMCSA does. No surprises on audit day.

Regulatory Precision

We know the FMCSRs chapter and verse. No guesswork, no "probably fine" answers.

Long-Term Partnership

Our average client relationship is 7 years. We grow with you as your fleet grows.
