Schedule Your
DOT Drug Test
Federally mandated testing for safety-sensitive employees in FMCSA, FAA, FTA, FRA, PHMSA, and USCG regulated positions. Our collections are fully compliant with 49 CFR Part 40.
📋 About This Test
DOT drug testing is federally required for employees in safety-sensitive transportation positions. All collections follow strict 49 CFR Part 40 procedures including witnessed collection, tamper-evident sealing, and chain of custody documentation. Results are reviewed by our Medical Review Officer (MRO) before being reported to your Designated Employer Representative (DER).
🎒 What to Bring

Government-Issued Photo ID
Driver's license, state ID, or passport. Required for all DOT collections — no exceptions.
-
Employer Authorization / CCF
Your employer's custody and control form (CCF) or authorization letter designating this test.
-
Prescription Medication List
If you take any prescription medications, have the list ready in case the MRO needs to contact you.

🔄 What Happens Step by Step
Check In
Arrive at our facility, present your photo ID and employer authorization. Our collector will verify your identity and begin the chain of custody.
Collection
You will provide a urine specimen in a private collection restroom. The collector will check temperature and seal the specimen with tamper-evident tape in your presence.
Lab Analysis
Your sealed specimen is shipped to our SAMHSA-certified laboratory for analysis. Non-negative results receive GC/MS confirmation testing.
MRO Review
All non-negative results are reviewed by our Medical Review Officer, who may contact you about prescription medications before finalizing the result.
Result Delivery
Your DER receives the verified result within 24–48 hours via our secure employer portal. You receive a copy through your results portal.
❓ Common Questions
What happens if I test positive?
Your DER will be notified and you must be immediately removed from safety-sensitive duties. You'll be referred to a Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) and must complete the return-to-duty process before resuming safety-sensitive work.
I take a prescription that may show up — what do I do?
The MRO will contact you before any positive result is reported. Have your prescription documentation ready. If the result is consistent with a legitimate prescription, the MRO will report it as negative.
How long will the collection take?
Plan for 20–30 minutes total including check-in, paperwork, and collection. If you are unable to provide a specimen (shy bladder), you may be given up to 3 hours and required to drink up to 40 oz of water.
Is this test observed?
Standard DOT urine collections are unobserved. Direct observation is only required under specific circumstances such as a return-to-duty test or when the collector has reason to believe tampering may occur.
