UCR filing for multi-truck fleets
Multi-truck fleets sit in UCR Tier 2 (3-5 vehicles) through Tier 6 (1,001+ vehicles) under 49 CFR Part 367. The 2027 fee scales from $255 (Tier 2) to a quoted total on a $54,165 federal fee (Tier 6). One UCR registration per carrier per year covers the entire fleet - no per-truck filing.
UCR tier table for 2027
UCR is keyed to the power-unit count from the carrier's most recent MCS-150 (or equivalent state-of- record). The six tiers are: Tier 1 (0-2 power units, $90), Tier 2 (3-5, $255), Tier 3 (6-20, $475), Tier 4 (21-100, $1,500), Tier 5 (101-1,000, quoted; $5,548 federal fee), Tier 6 (1,001+, quoted; $54,165 federal fee). Trailers, dollies, and intrastate-only vehicles do not count toward the tier.

Fleet UCR questions
How do UCR tiers work for fleets?
Six tiers based on power-unit count: Tier 1 (0-2 vehicles, $90), Tier 2 (3-5, $255), Tier 3 (6-20, $475), Tier 4 (21-100, $1,500), Tier 5 (101-1,000, quoted; $5,548 federal fee), Tier 6 (1,001+, quoted; $54,165 federal fee). The 2027 fees apply to the carrier's reported power-unit count from the most recent MCS-150. Trailers, dollies, and intrastate-only vehicles do not count.
What if my fleet size changes mid-year?
UCR is annual - once you file, your fee is locked for the year regardless of fleet changes. If you grow from Tier 2 to Tier 3 during the year, the new tier fee applies at next year's renewal. UCR does not re-bill mid-year for fleet growth. Fleet shrinkage works the same way - file at your size at filing time, get the receipt, no mid-year refunds.
Does UCR cover state intrastate operations?
No. UCR covers interstate operations under 49 CFR Part 367. State intrastate registration (CA intrastate carrier permit, NY intrastate authority, etc.) is separate. Fleets operating both interstate and intrastate file UCR for the interstate side and the relevant state-level intrastate filings separately.
