Turnaround times

5 minfastest Contractor Basic results

Contractor Basic results often arrive in as little as 5 minutes when the database search finds no records and the SSN Trace returns no discrepancies. Most other packages average 8–24 hours.

Built for how small businesses hire

  • Pay per report. No contract, setup fee, or minimum order.
  • Order when you hire. One report today, a dozen next season, with the same pricing.
  • Tailored quotes. Get exactly the searches a role needs when no package fits.

All turnaround times are averages, not guarantees. Records that need review can take longer.

What each package screens for

Criminal record checks explained

Standard ($25.95) includes three criminal searches: unlimited County Criminal Records, Nationwide Federal Criminal Records, and a Nationwide Criminal Database Search.

County searches check records held by county courts, and federal searches cover federal courts. The database search scans records collected from many sources, and a result may need confirming at the court that holds the record.

No single search guarantees a complete record or decides whether you can use a finding in a hiring decision.

Driving and drug testing components

The Driver package ($30.95, 8–24 hours average) adds a motor vehicle record (MVR) search of the candidate’s driving history. It does not include drug testing.

Standard Package + Drug Screen ($65.95, 1–5 days average) adds a Labcorp Rapid 10-panel 6AM drug test.

Need both an MVR and a drug test? Request a quote for the combined order, and ask whether the role requires DOT-compliant testing.

Property and financial public-record components

Property Management ($53.95, 8–48 hours average) adds two Eviction Records searches plus Bankruptcies, Liens, and Judgments searches.

Finance & Accounting ($43.95, 8–24 hours average) adds FFIEC Banking Sanctions screening.

Before checkout, confirm each public-record search’s jurisdiction, availability, and full charge.
