Charleston, SC · DOT Random Testing Consortium (C/TPA)

DOT Consortium
Charleston, SC

FMCSA-mandated random drug & alcohol testing for CDL drivers based in Charleston — enrollment, quarterly random selection, MRO review, and Clearinghouse reporting, handled end-to-end by WorkOccMed as your Consortium/Third-Party Administrator (C/TPA), from $49/year per driver.

FMCSA Random Testing for Charleston Fleets

Every DOT-regulated employer — including single-truck owner-operators dispatching out of Charleston — must participate in a random drug and alcohol testing program under 49 CFR Part 382, administered through a Consortium/Third-Party Administrator (C/TPA). Operating without one risks fines that start at $16,000+ per violation.

Charleston's trucking footprint: South Carolina freight moves along I-95, I-85, I-26 and I-20, anchored by the Port of Charleston and the I-85 automotive corridor. With automotive, logistics, manufacturing, and aerospace driving demand for CDL drivers around Charleston, South Carolina’s port and automotive freight are major employers of CDL drivers.
