  • 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

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.

Do I pay VerifiedHub a fee?

Clients don't pay VerifiedHub anything. The platform fee is paid by the operator on successful bookings, so you get the same rates you would get going direct — without the scam risk of finding operators on classifieds or social media.

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.
