1. The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
2. Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
3. Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
4. Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
