For owner-operators

Stop running your business off a spam-flooded cell phone.

You're one truck. Your personal number is on every filing — so it's the number the robocallers, factoring reps, and fake-lead scammers hit all day. Shield gives you a number to publish instead, without missing a single real load.

The day after your USDOT goes live

The day your USDOT goes active, your phone number and email become public FMCSA/DOT records. Anyone can pull them — and lead-list resellers do, within hours.

Then it starts: spam calls, robocalls, insurance sales pitches, factoring pitches, and fake “load” leads. It hits your personal cell and your inbox, all day, every day, and blocking each one is a losing game — the number is on MCS-150, SAFER, BOC-3, your COI, and UCR.

Shield Carriers gives you a protected public phone number and email to publish instead. Real brokers, shippers, regulators, inspectors, and your trusted contacts still get through. Spam and junk outreach are filtered before they ever reach you.

One number you control — not your cell.

You publish the shield number on MCS-150, SAFER, and everywhere else. Spam hits the shield, not your cell. Real callers — brokers, shippers, inspectors, 911 — still ring straight through, because the safety allowlist can’t be turned off and your allow list is one tap.

Your personal cell stays personal. Family, friends, your bank, your doctor — still on your real number. They never see the shield. The shield never sees them.

You’ve tried the workarounds. Here’s why they fail.

What owner-operators ask us

Will brokers still reach me?+

Yes. Brokers and shippers you’ve worked with go on your allow list and ring straight through. A first-time broker who hits the filter presses 1 to connect, and the call shows in your dashboard so you can add them permanently. Cold dialers and robocalls don’t press 1 — they hang up.

Will FMCSA, DOT, inspectors, or emergency contacts still reach me?+

Always. 911, DOT inspectors, state DOT, FMCSA, PHMSA, NCCDB, CHEMTREC, the courts, and every .gov / .mil sender are on a safety allowlist that cannot be turned off — not by you, not by us, not by anyone.

Can I cancel?+

Anytime. There’s no contract. Monthly plans stop at the end of the current billing period; annual plans are prorated. No credit card is required to start your 7-day free trial.

What happens to my Shield number if I cancel?+

When you cancel a paid plan with a shield phone number, we hold that number for 15 days so you have time to update your FMCSA record and anywhere else it’s published. Resubscribe within that window and you keep the same number. After 15 days it’s released.

Why not just use another phone number?+

A second cell line or a Google Voice number still rings for every spammer who scrapes it — it has no idea which callers are real. Shield filters every call, text, and email against your allow list and the always-on safety allowlist, so the junk is stopped before it reaches you while real business gets through.

You drive. We filter.

One truck, one number to hand out, zero spam getting through to your cell.
