Compliance we check before an operator gets the Verified badge

  • operator's certificate of competency
  • machine service records
  • public liability insurance for the operator
  • site-specific mine inductions if working underground or near pit edges

Verification is per-operator, not per-truck. If a Verified operator's compliance lapses (roadworthy expires, GIT cancelled), the badge comes off immediately and the operator drops off this page until it's restored.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I get a quote?

Most verified operators on VerifiedHub respond to a quote request within 2–6 hours during business days. Submit the form on this page with your route, tonnage, and start date, and the request goes directly to operators serving your area.

Are operators on VerifiedHub vetted?

Every operator that displays a Verified badge has had their CIPC registration, RTMS status, and at least one compliance document reviewed by our team. Operators awaiting verification appear with a Pending badge so you can choose accordingly.

Can I message the operator before booking?

Yes — once your quote request lands, you can chat directly with the operator inside VerifiedHub. Use this to confirm equipment specs, cross-check insurance, or negotiate rates before any money changes hands.

What if the operator no-shows or under-delivers?

Report the incident via your dashboard — VerifiedHub tracks operator reliability and removes operators with a confirmed pattern of failed deliveries. Reviews from verified bookings are public on the operator's profile.
