Verified Oct 21, 2026 against FMCSA Company Census File (data.transportation.gov)

Nexus Cooperative (USDOT 299549, MC-726863), doing business as Nexus, is an active motor carrier based in Charles City, Iowa 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: 157 power units and 150 drivers (150 with CDLs). Power units count straight trucks as well as tractors, so they can exceed the tractor count. Its MCS-150 of September 4, 2024 reports 909,166 miles and gives 2024, the year it was filed, as the mileage year, so the figure is not a full calendar year's total. Cargo classes declared: chemicals, liquids / gases, grain, feed, hay, other cargo (other: Fertilizer). It is also classified as a private carrier of its own goods. FMCSA has not issued it a safety rating (no compliance review on record). Registration (MCS-150) last updated September 4, 2024, more than two years ago and past FMCSA's two-year update requirement, so the fleet, driver and cargo figures above may be out of date.
