DOT Testing Services

Pre-Employment Drug Testing

CDL drivers must receive a verified negative DOT drug test result before operating a commercial motor vehicle. Our platform ensures fast and compliant pre-employment drug testing to help you onboard qualified drivers without delay, while maintaining full adherence to FMCSA requirements.
Random Drug and Alcohol Testing

Safety-sensitive employees must be enrolled in a compliant random testing program within 30 days of passing their pre-employment drug test. Our DOT random testing consortium handles quarterly selections and notifications, ensuring your fleet stays compliant and audit-ready year-round.
Post-Accident Drug and Alcohol Testing

CDL drivers must receive a verified negative DOT drug test result before operating a commercial motor vehicle. Our platform ensures fast and compliant pre-employment drug testing to help you onboard qualified drivers without delay, while maintaining full adherence to FMCSA requirements.
Return-to-Duty Testing

When a driver tests positive or refuses a DOT drug or alcohol test, they must complete the return-to-duty process before resuming safety-sensitive duties. We support compliance by coordinating each required step — from SAP referrals to observed testing — ensuring proper documentation and regulatory adherence.
Follow-Up Drug and Alcohol Testing

After a driver returns to duty, they are subject to a series of unannounced follow-up tests as directed by a Substance Abuse Professional. We manage the entire schedule of follow-up testing over the required time period, keeping your program compliant and your records audit-ready.
Reasonable Suspicion Testing

If a driver shows observable signs of drug or alcohol use while on duty, DOT regulations require immediate action. Our process enables supervisors to initiate reasonable suspicion testing quickly and discreetly, with full compliance support and proper recordkeeping to protect your business and drivers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DOT consortium?

A DOT consortium is a group of employers (trucking companies) whose CDL drivers participate in a combined random drug and alcohol testing pool. The consortium manages random selections, testing administration and related compliance requirements on behalf of participating companies.
Do owner-operators need a consortium?

Yes. Owner-operators who operate a CMV requiring a CDL and are not leased to another motor carrier must participate in a consortium random testing pool.
Can trucking companies with multiple drivers join a DOT consortium?

Yes. Fleets with multiple CDL drivers may manage their own random testing program or use a consortium to handle testing, random selections and program administration for them.
What does DOT Consortium enrollment include?

Your enrollment fee includes participation in our DOT random testing program, random pool management, testing administration, compliance records and access to nationwide DOT drug and alcohol testing.
How much does DOT Consortium cost?

DOT Consortium costs $149 per year or $299 for three years and includes unlimited drivers. DOT drug and alcohol tests are $60 each.
Why is DOT Consortium so affordable?

DOT Consortium is powered by Trucking Hub’s technology, infrastructure and nationwide scale. That allows us to automate much of the administrative work and pass those efficiencies directly to trucking companies through lower pricing.
Are drug and alcohol tests included with enrollment?

Testing is separate from enrollment fee. DOT drug and alcohol tests are $60 each, so you only pay for testing when a test is needed.
Where can my drivers take a DOT drug or alcohol test?

Drivers have access to more than 24,000 collection sites nationwide, making it easy to find testing near their home, terminal or current location.
How quickly can I enroll in a DOT consortium?

Enrollment takes just minutes. Open your account, add drivers to the random pool, and schedule a pre-employment drug test - all within minutes.
I already completed a pre-employment drug test. Do I need another one?

Not necessarily. If you or your drivers already completed a valid DOT drug test, we can review the existing testing and program documentation to determine whether another pre-employment test is required. DOT rules generally require an employer to receive a negative pre-employment drug test before allowing a CDL driver to perform safety-sensitive work, subject to limited exceptions for qualifying prior testing programs.
How does DOT random drug and alcohol testing work?

Eligible CDL drivers are placed into a random testing pool where every driver has an equal chance of selection. Random selections and testing must be unannounced and spread throughout the year in accordance with FMCSA requirements.
How often are random selections performed?

Random testing is conducted throughout the calendar year. Drivers should remain available for testing throughout the year because selections must be unannounced and reasonably spread across the testing period.
What happens if a driver is selected for a random test?

When a driver is selected, the appropriate company contact is notified and the driver must report for the required test. We help coordinate the test and maintain the resulting compliance documentation.
Can the same driver be selected more than once?

Yes. Random means every eligible driver has an equal chance of being selected each time a selection is made. A driver who was previously selected can be selected again.
Do I still need a pre-employment drug test if I join a consortium?

Yes, consortium enrollment does not replace the pre-employment testing requirement. In general, an employer must receive a negative DOT drug test result before allowing a new CDL driver to operate a covered commercial motor vehicle, unless a specific regulatory exception applies.
Do owner-operators need to designate a C/TPA in the FMCSA Clearinghouse?

Yes. Owner-operators are required to work with a consortium/third-party administrator for their DOT drug and alcohol testing program, including applicable Clearinghouse responsibilities.
Is DOT Consortium approved by the FMCSA?

FMCSA does not approve or endorse individual consortium/third-party administrators. DOT Consortium operates its program in accordance with applicable DOT and FMCSA drug and alcohol testing requirements.
