What is a Contractor ID Number?
Getting your Dig Safe ticket is easier with a Contractor ID Number. It stores your company name, address, phone numbers and email address, so you don’t have to give your contact information each time you apply.
Good
communication is key in preventing damage, so please give an alternate
phone number. The utility locators who respond may need to reach
you with a question or concern. A wireless phone number for the
person directly involved with the job will help prevent delays.
*NOTE: A Contractor ID number is
NOT a Dig Safe
ticket number. A Dig Safe ticket number is an eleven-digit number
that is issued for each utility mark-out you request for a particular
work location. To apply for a Dig Safe ticket, please use our online
Quick Ticket option, or call 811.
Contractor ID Numbers are assigned manually at the Dig Safe office - it's not an immediate process.
We'll email your ID number within a few hours. If we receive an application during weeknights, weekends, or on a holiday, we'll email your ID number on the next business day.
