One flat annual price
What Does CDL Inquiry's $110 DOT Consortium Include?
The important number is not the advertised enrollment fee — it is what you actually pay to remain enrolled and complete the testing included in your program. CDL Inquiry's flat $110 annual price is designed to make that total cost clear from the beginning.
Pre-Employment Test Included
One pre-employment DOT drug test is included in the annual program price.
Required Random Testing Included
Required random DOT drug and alcohol testing during the enrollment year is included.
Built for CDL Operations
Designed for CDL drivers, owner-operators, and small fleets that need a straightforward DOT testing program.

Compare Total Annual Cost — Not Just the Enrollment Fee
Some DOT consortium companies advertise a lower enrollment fee, but required drug and alcohol tests can be charged separately. CDL Inquiry's $110 annual program combines the enrollment and key required testing into one flat annual price. That is why a $59 or $60 enrollment fee can ultimately cost more than our $110 all-inclusive program.
A low advertised enrollment fee can look cheaper at first. The problem is that some programs charge separately when a drug or alcohol test is required. Once a pre-employment drug test and separate testing charges are added, the total annual cost can exceed CDL Inquiry's $110 all-inclusive price.
That is why CDL Inquiry encourages drivers and employers to compare total annual program cost, not just the first enrollment number shown in an advertisement.

Compare It Yourself Before You Enroll
We encourage customers to compare the total annual cost of DOT consortium programs instead of comparing enrollment fees alone. A low enrollment price can become more expensive when pre-employment, random drug, or random alcohol testing is billed separately.
