Wisconsin USDOT Compliance & Motor Carrier Operating Authority Information
Wisconsin is a major Midwest freight state with strong manufacturing and agricultural sectors. Milwaukee is a key intermodal market, and the state is a top dairy producer generating significant refrigerated freight. I-94 connects Milwaukee to Chicago and Minneapolis, two of the largest freight markets in the region.
Wisconsin's dairy and paper industries drive consistent refrigerated and bulk freight demand. A BOC-3 process-agent gap is a common finding for new Milwaukee- and Madison-based carriers in the new-entrant safety audit.

What Is FMCSA Form BOC-3? Process Agent Filing in Wisconsin
If you're a motor carrier, freight broker, or freight forwarder operating in or through Wisconsin, federal law requires you to designate a process agent in Wisconsin - along with every other state you run in - through a BOC-3 filing with the FMCSA.
A process agent in Wisconsin is a person or company authorized to accept legal documents, including lawsuits and subpoenas, on your behalf within the state. Without this designation on file, FMCSA won't activate your operating authority.
Your BOC-3 is filed as a blanket process agent designation. A single $75 filing covers Wisconsin along with every other state we serve - no per-state fees.
