Needing help with Authority

Will you PLEASE help me...I had my own Authority until I was deployed to IRAQ for 18 months with the National Guard....Now I am trying to start back ....My insurance only allows me to run in the State of Georgia. So, I will have to get freight that stays within the boundaries of Georgia. My insurance is in full force with 1 million Auto and 100,000 cargo. I have rented a 2016 Freightliner Day Cab. So, Do you know anyone that will let me haul some freight for them. Like trailer loads that need to go anywhere in the State?

The next problem is that I thought my operating Authority was good to go. I have a contract with Pam Transportation to take a trailer from McDonough to Savannah pick one up in Savannah and bring it to Lake Forest. My Authority is not good because I have to detach our MC# from our DOT number because I don’t need the MC number just staying in the State. FMCSA is 7 to 10 days behind on entering the information in the computer to show up on the SAFE website. Once they update the information in the computer then I will be Authorized to use our DOT number then the contract with Pam Transportation will be good to go business as usual on our end. In the mean time I am trying to find a company that I can operate under their authority. If someone will let me operate under their authority I could either pull for them if they needed another truck and driver if not I could go to the contract that I have with Pam Transportation and do the Savannah run. That run is indefinite.

Can you PLEASE help me with this? It is quite costly renting a truck that is not moving…..ph 352-817-7003
