Massachusetts FMCSA BOC-3 Process Agent Service for Trucking Companies – Colon Constable Services
Introduction
If you’re a trucking company, motor carrier, broker, or logistics provider crossing state lines, you know that maintaining full FMCSA compliance is critical. Every carrier operating under FMCSA authority must file a BOC-3 with a designated process agent in every state they travel — including Massachusetts. That’s where Colon Constable Services steps in.
We offer trusted, experienced Massachusetts process agent service tailored to the unique legal needs of trucking companies and blanket companies. From receiving legal documents to ensuring smooth FMCSA compliance, we help keep you on the road and in good standing.
What is a BOC-3 Process Agent?
A BOC-3 process agent is a designated individual or company authorized to receive legal process on behalf of a motor carrier in each state. The FMCSA requires this as part of the operating authority process so that when legal notices or lawsuits are served against a carrier, there is a physical agent who can accept these papers.
This ensures that important legal and regulatory documents — such as lawsuits, government notices, or subpoenas — never go unnoticed. The process agent must be a trustworthy party who will promptly accept and forward these papers so your company can respond on time.
FMCSA BOC-3 Requirements in Massachusetts
Massachusetts is home to busy shipping routes and logistics hubs like Boston, Worcester, Springfield, and Cape Cod. Whether you operate as a single-state carrier or part of a multi-state blanket company, having a Massachusetts process agent is mandatory under FMCSA regulation 49 CFR §366.
Key requirements for FMCSA BOC-3 process agents include:

FMCSA Compliance Means Staying Ahead
Staying compliant with FMCSA regulations is an ongoing process.
If your designated Massachusetts process agent is unreliable — or if you haven't appointed one at all — your authority could be put at risk. FMCSA can suspend or revoke your authority if proper BOC-3 agents are not on file.
When you work with Colon Constable Services, you gain a local process agent dedicated to keeping you compliant so you can focus on what you do best — moving freight safely across the country.
