Broker Authority Watch

Updated

Longbow Transportation And Logistics LLC

Source note: FMCSA's authority row says Active, while its latest logged history action is “Suspended: bond or trust fund cancelled” on July 10, 2026. These source statements disagree; the history does not resolve current authority. Check the official records.

Source note: The bond summary uses the selected filing's effective date, July 14, 2026. Other financial-filing source rows show June 27, 2014, June 27, 2026. These may be different filings or disagreements between files; the records do not establish why the dates differ. The timeline preserves those rows separately, not as one consistent policy date or proof of a coverage gap.

Source note: The selected bond filing names Merchants National Bonding, Inc.; other financial-filing rows name American Inter-Fidelity Exchange, Westfield Insurance Co.. The files do not explain these provider differences. A shared effective date does not establish one consistent policy or insurer; each source row is retained separately.

As of Oct 21, 2026, Longbow Transportation And Logistics LLC in Ponte Vedra, Florida has broker authority status “Active”, with an unresolved disagreement between the authority row and its latest logged stop, with 1 suspension or revocation on record.
