Question

The state of R.I. requires a right to operate a trucking company license, how do you acquire this license? Are there any attorneys that work on this field? Need help.

Answer 1

It sounds like you are thinking about the Unified Carrier Registration program (UCR) which applies in many states, including Rhode Island.  You can register your operation with the Rhode Island Division of Public Utilities and Carriers

Division of Public Utilities and Carriers

89 Jefferson Blvd.

Warwick, RI  02888

For an overview of the process, including the fees, check out this Web site:

You can also arrange for registration online for most states.  See the following:
