Verified Oct 22, 2026 against FMCSA Company Census File (data.transportation.gov)

Crete Carrier Corporation (USDOT 73705, MC-126118), doing business as Crete Carrier Corp Shaffer Trucking, is an active motor carrier based in Lincoln, Nebraska that FMCSA's census classifies as for-hire and that declares hazardous materials on its MCS-150. Operation: interstate. Operating authority: active for-hire authority (MC). Fleet: 5,257 power units and 4,975 drivers (4,975 with CDLs). Its MCS-150 of May 11, 2026 reports 615,615,633 miles and gives 2026, the year it was filed, as the mileage year, so the figure is not a full calendar year's total. Cargo classes declared: chemicals, general freight, intermodal containers, building materials, construction, metal: sheets, coils, rolls, refrigerated food, fresh produce, beverages, paper products, meat. FMCSA safety rating: satisfactory, from a compliance review on May 30, 2007, 19 years ago; it reflects that review, not current performance. In the last 24 months it had 9,885 roadside inspections, 780 of them (7.9%) with an out-of-service order; 26 hazmat inspections; 419 reportable crashes (17 deaths, 187 injuries); a crash on record does not by itself mean the carrier caused it. Registration (MCS-150) last updated May 11, 2026.

Key facts

Fleet size	500+ power units Power units, banded. source
FMCSA safety rating	Satisfactory Satisfactory, Conditional or Unsatisfactory after an FMCSA compliance review; most carriers have never had one and are not rated. source
Rating age	Rating over 10 years old How old the FMCSA safety rating is. A rating reflects one compliance review on that date, not current performance; old ratings say little about the carrier today. source
Registration update overdue	No The MCS-150 was last updated more than two years ago, past FMCSA's two-year update requirement; fleet, driver and cargo figures may be out of date. source
Operation	Interstate Interstate, intrastate hazmat or intrastate non-hazmat, as declared on the MCS-150. source
Cargo classes (MCS-150)	Chemicals, General freight, Intermodal containers, Building materials, Construction, Metal: sheets, coils, rolls, Refrigerated food, Fresh produce, Beverages, Paper products, Meat Cargo the carrier declared it hauls on its latest MCS-150 (FMCSA's fixed cargo list). source

Last MCS-150 update	May 11, 2026 When the carrier last updated its registration (required at least every two years). source
Out-of-service share (24 months)	Under 10% out of service The share of the carrier's roadside inspections in the last 24 months that ended in an out-of-service order. A carrier with few inspections can swing on one result. source

USDOT number: The registration number every interstate (and many intrastate) commercial carrier holds.

MCS-150: The registration form carriers file with FMCSA and must update at least every two years; fleet, drivers, cargo and the hazmat flag on this site come from it, as the carrier declared them.

Safety rating: FMCSA's result after an on-site compliance review: Satisfactory, Conditional or Unsatisfactory. A rating is not refreshed unless FMCSA reviews the carrier again, so many are years old; each profile gives the review date. Most carriers have never been reviewed and are not rated; that is not a bad mark.

Power units: Trucks and tractors that pull or carry freight.

Reportable crash: A crash involving the carrier's vehicle with a death, an injury treated away from the scene or a vehicle towed away. FMCSA records it whoever was at fault.

Cargo classes: Self-declared on the MCS-150 from FMCSA's fixed list. Some carriers tick most of the list, so a long list means 'declared', not 'specialises in'; the hazmat flag does not say which hazardous materials.
