Getting your DUNS Number in 24 hrs for FREE
This is a simple process that I failed to go into detail about earlier in my blog. It simply gives you directions to getting a DUNS number without the hassle of the sales pitch and the 30 day wait that usually occurs.
Go to ww.ccr.gov
Then click “Start New Registration” on your left
Now choose “I am not a Government Entity” out of the 3 options given and click continue
Next, click th linked “Data Universal Number System ******”
You will be then sent to DnB’s website. Follow th instructions and you will have your DUNS number in 24 hours.
This is just an alternative for those of you who do not want to go through calling and answering stupid questions.

Ha! That is ingenious of how to get a D&B # (by traversing thru the Fed website, lol), and w/o having to deal w/Duns directly. A neat little trick I am saving for future reference.

Great resource!
I went through the process but I already had a number. My company is 3 years old so I guess DnB already built a profile on us.
Thanks!

This is great information. I too like the previous poster already had a DnB number. It was sent to me in a few seconds using the info you provided.
