Same service on both plans. Cancel any month, remaining full months refunded.
The only thing that changes with truck count is how many trucks and drivers it covers.
You pay government fees, tests and the process agent's fee directly; they never go on our invoice. See the full list.
Running 7 or more trucks? The membership is built for carriers with 1 to 6 trucks. Contact us for custom pricing.
For one truck and one driver, the 14 compliance companies that publish a price come to $1,244 to $7,364 for a comparable year, once you add what each price leaves out (read from their own pricing pages on September 7, 2026). TenFour is $1,188 a year for the first truck on the annual plan, $99 a month. Government fees, drug tests and physicals are extra with every provider, including us.
The arithmetic behind the range is on two pages: what DOT compliance costs in total, government fees included, and compare DOT compliance companies provider by provider, with every source.
Deadline monitoring, every day
Every date that applies to your operation checked daily, with alerts at 60, 30 and 7 days. Medical cards, annual inspections, MVR reviews, Clearinghouse queries, UCR, MCS-150, IFTA.
Driver qualification files
Built correctly for every driver, kept current, organized so an auditor can read them without you translating. Up to two drivers per truck.
Drug & alcohol program, set up and run for you
We tell you exactly which consortium to join and how, complete the enrollment for you, walk you through naming it as your C/TPA in your own Clearinghouse account, prepare the written policy, handle every random selection and keep the records an auditor asks for. You pay the consortium's own membership fee ($99 a year for the whole account, however many drivers, with the consortium we refer you to) and each test directly to the provider, at their price, never marked up.
Clearinghouse registration, consents and queries
Registration walked through in your own account, the pre-employment and annual queries the rules require, driver consents and the records that prove you ran them. You buy queries ($1.25 each) directly from FMCSA.
Medical card, inspection and MVR tracking
Every driver's certificate, every truck's annual inspection and every annual MVR review tracked on its own cycle, with reminders that arrive in time to act.
UCR prepared every year
Right bracket, right year, prepared for you to submit at ucr.gov. You pay the government fee there directly; we keep the receipt.
Every MCS-150, prepared
The biennial update, changes, and reactivation after a missed update, prepared for you to submit in your own Motus account and verified in SAFER. Never a per-filing fee. Reapplying after a revoked new entrant registration is the reinstatement add-on.
BOC-3 designation at onboarding
An approved blanket process agent covering every state, set up in your name, the filing confirmed. You pay the agent's own fee directly to the agent.
IFTA quarterly returns on the annual plan
Prepared from your ELD mileage and fuel data, reconciled, reviewed by a person, ready for you to file on time. Month-to-month members add it for $49 a return.
Audit-ready records vault
Medical certificates, inspection reports, maintenance records and driver documents organized per truck and per driver: current, findable, ready to hand over.
Safety-score watch with DataQs triage
Your FMCSA safety data watched in plain English, with a written go/no-go on any violation that looks worth challenging.
Human review of every filing
Software prepares it. A person checks it before it goes anywhere official.
Routine questions, answered the same business day
By text or email, from someone who knows your account. Routine questions are part of the membership; work measured in hours is quoted before it starts.
Monthly scorecard
What we handled, what is coming, and where you stand: in two minutes, on your phone.
New Authority Starter on the annual plan
For new carriers: compliance profile, consortium enrollment and a twelve-month calendar, with the BOC-3, UCR, MCS-150 review and Clearinghouse registration prepared for you to sign and submit. Set up right, once.
Fair use, in plain words. Routine questions are part of the membership and answered the same business day. A request that needs research, a document produced, or more than about fifteen minutes becomes a quoted task at the member rate, and you are told before any work starts. You never pay for asking.

MCS-150 prepared for you
The form is free and our guide shows you how. If you would rather have it prepared (a biennial update, a change, or a number deactivated for a missed update), we prepare it within one business day, you submit it in your own Motus account and we verify it in SAFER. A revoked new entrant registration is the reinstatement add-on.
Credited in full to a plan you start within 60 days.

DataQs challenge
Tell us the violation. We review it first and invoice only if it is worth filing, and we tell you honestly when it is not. One hour of review and drafting; anything longer is quoted.
New Entrant Audit prep
The four files the auditor asks for, built and checked, the automatic-fail items fixed, the binder handed over. Audit-week support for members is at the hourly rate.
Credited in full to a plan you start within 60 days.
Out-of-service reinstatement
A revoked new entrant registration, or an out-of-service order you need lifted. For a revoked new entrant this includes the updated MCS-150 that 385.329T requires for reapplication, prepared for you to submit. We read the record first and tell you honestly whether it is worth pursuing, and that part costs nothing. Covers about six hours of work; if a file runs longer you are told before another hour is worked. No outcome is guaranteed, by us or by anyone.
Form 2290 filing
Your heavy vehicle use tax return prepared for you to file by the August deadline, the stamped Schedule 1 kept where your registration renewal needs it.
Work outside the plan
Rebuilding missing mileage or fuel records, corrective action plans, IRP or permit filings, unusual carrier structures. Always quoted before we start; one-hour minimum.
Every standalone purchase on this page is credited to a membership you start within 60 days. Buy the filing you need today; if you decide to hand the whole calendar over next month, you do not pay for it twice.
Small things are free for members. A letter to a broker, a quick fix on a filing we already made, a copy of a file for your insurance agent, a second look at a document before you sign it, if it takes a few minutes and there is no third-party fee, there is no charge, and we would rather say that in public than surprise you with an invoice for it.

Of the 14 providers that publish a price, 11 cost more than TenFour once you add what their price leaves out, and 3 land about the same.
TenFour comes to $1,287 a year for one truck with every driver included, counting the $99 a year consortium fee you pay directly, one company to deal with, and one thing no other row can offer: former over-the-road driver and law enforcement professional specializing in traffic enforcement, combining firsthand trucking experience with real-world insight into roadside enforcement and regulatory compliance.

Prices read from each provider's own published pricing on September 7, 2026, for a one-truck, one-driver carrier over twelve months, setup included. “Still needed elsewhere” is priced at the median of what the providers in this table charge for that item. Government fees, drug tests and physicals are excluded everywhere, because every provider passes them through. A person to answer your questions is not priced at all, no provider in the table sells one below $199 a month. TenFour is a private compliance-support service, not a government agency and not a law firm; nothing about the founder's background changes how anyone is treated at a roadside stop. See all 16 providers, the method and every source →
Cancel any month. By text or email, to a person, with no retention call. The month you cancel in is serviced in full and is not refunded; the account closes on the last day of that month.
Annual plans are refunded by the month. Every full month remaining after the account closes comes back at one-twelfth of what you paid.
The April example. You paid for January through December and you cancel on April 14. We work through April 30, close the account that day, and refund May through December, eight full months, eight-twelfths of the annual price.
Standalone purchases are refundable in full until we start the work. Once a filing has been submitted it cannot be unsubmitted, so from that point it is not refundable.
Government fees, test fees and the process agent’s fee are never refundable, by us or by anyone. They leave for the agency, the lab or the agent the day they are paid, and we hold none of them.
Renewal is not a surprise. A membership renews automatically so your monitoring never lapses, and we email you 30 days before it does with the amount and the date. Cancel in that window and nothing is charged.
Refunds go back to the original payment method, and your records are yours. We help you export them on the way out.
The governing language is in the terms of service. TenFour provides administrative compliance support. We are not a law firm and not a government agency.
It depends on how much of the work the price covers. For one truck and one driver, the 14 providers that publish a price come to $1,244 to $7,364 for a comparable year once you add what each leaves out, read from their own pricing pages on September 7, 2026. TenFour is $1,188 a year for the first truck on the annual plan ($99 a month), plus $59 a month for each added truck ($708 a year, billed up front).
The ones every carrier pays whoever runs its compliance, each paid directly to whoever charges it: the UCR fee at ucr.gov, $1.25 per Clearinghouse query to FMCSA, the consortium's own membership fee ($99 a year for the whole account with the consortium we refer you to), drug tests, DOT physicals, MVR pulls, and the process agent's one-time fee for the BOC-3. The MCS-150 costs nothing to file. None of it goes through TenFour, and the full table is on this page.
Because it is billed once instead of twelve times and the account is set up once. The first truck is $1,188 up front for twelve months (about two months free against $119 a month), and there is no onboarding charge. The service is identical on both plans.
No contract on either plan: cancel any month, and on annual the remaining full months are refunded. There is no setup fee on the annual plan. The month-to-month plan carries a one-time $199 onboarding, the New Authority Starter, which is the work of building your compliance profile and your first twelve-month calendar. If you move to annual within 60 days, that $199 is credited back in full.
The work is ours and the fees are yours, paid directly at the provider's own price. We tell you exactly which consortium to join and how, complete the enrollment for you, walk you through naming it as your C/TPA in your own Clearinghouse account, prepare the written policy, handle every random selection and keep the records. You pay the consortium's own membership fee ($99 a year for the whole account, however many drivers, with the consortium we refer you to) and the tests, the DOT physical and MRO services directly to the consortium, the collection site, the lab, the MRO and the examiner. That money never goes through TenFour, never appears on our invoice and is never marked up.
You get a price before anything starts. A DataQs challenge is $99 for members and we review it first and invoice only if it is worth filing. Form 2290 is $49. A driver hire packet beyond fair use is $59. Anything measured in hours (rebuilding missing mileage records, a corrective action plan, an IRP filing) is $95 an hour with a one-hour minimum, quoted first.
One truck. Drivers are included, up to 2 per truck, so a team truck is still one truck: $99 a month on the annual plan. There is no per-driver meter, because most of the recurring work (UCR, the MCS-150, IFTA, safety-score watch) happens once per carrier no matter who is behind the wheel.
Because the membership on this page is built for carriers with 1 to 6 trucks, and a larger operation is a different job: more drivers, more vehicles, more systems already in place. Fleets of seven or more are priced individually, contact us, tell us about the operation and you get a written quote before anything is charged.
Tell us, or change the count in your billing portal. The membership price moves by $59 a month on the annual plan ($69 month to month) and the new amount is shown to you before it is charged. The scope does not change: the new truck and its drivers are covered the same way as the first. The portal goes up to 6 trucks; past that, contact us for custom pricing.
Not on the monthly line, and it is not the same purchase. Software gives you storage and reminders; you still pull the MVR, chase the medical card, prepare the filing and answer the auditor. Do not compare base price to base price, compare what you actually get. Add the driver file service, the consortium, the Clearinghouse plan, the IFTA preparer and your own hours to the software price, and that comparable total is what the comparison page adds up.
Something not covered here? Ask a pricing question, and a person answers the same business day.
Priced per truck, published in full, cancel any month. Carriers with 1 to 6 trucks start online in about two minutes, no call required. Seven or more trucks is custom pricing, contact us.
$99/month is the annual plan for one truck, billed $1,188 up front, about two months free against $119 month to month. Each additional truck is $59/month ($69 month to month), every driver included, up to six trucks. Cancel any month; remaining full months refunded.
