MCW Laboratory Gives Spartanburg Employers and Legal Professionals One Local Source for DOT, New-Hire, and Court-Ready Drug Testing
Spartanburg-based compliance lab streamlines testing for transportation companies, local employers, attorneys, and individuals from its Pine Street location
SPARTANBURG, S.C. — October 6, 2026 — MCW DOT, Employer & Legal Compliance Laboratory (MCW Laboratory) is giving Upstate employers, transportation companies, and legal professionals a single local partner for compliance testing. From its office at 2001 S. Pine St., Suite A, MCW handles DOT testing and physicals, employer screening, court-admissible drug and DNA testing, fingerprinting, background checks, and medical bloodwork under one roof.
For businesses that juggle federal rules, hiring timelines, and court deadlines, that means fewer vendors and faster answers.

"Whether it's a trucking company that needs a DOT test today, an employer filling a position, or an attorney who needs results that hold up, we give Spartanburg a local lab that gets it right the first time."
