  3. PROBLEM
    31 of the 48 dated BBB reviews we read fall within 30 days (2025-10-15 to 2025-11-13); BBB shows 48 reviews in total over at least 34 months, which spread evenly would be about 1.4 per 30 days

    We read 68 review records (67 with written text) across BBB and Trustpilot; one signal stands out — 31 of the 48 dated BBB reviews we read fall within 30 days (2025-10-15 to 2025-11-13); BBB shows 48 reviews in total over at least 34 months, which spread evenly would be about 1.4 per 30 days. Read the cited reviews yourself. Clustering in review dates is a timing observation. Timing alone does not establish whether reviews are authentic or fabricated, or whether the business engaged in fraud.

Changes on the public record

Changes observed in this company's federal and state records during the last 90 days. Each entry shows when the change was observed.

  • Oct 1, 2026MEDIUMNew operating authority on record: MC685878 Motor Carrier of Household Goods — Active.

What kind of company is this?

Carrier

The captured federal record lists a carrier role. This alone does not establish current interstate household-goods authority or guarantee who will perform your move.

Interstate HHG carrier authority

The captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods authority. Confirm its current status and the operating carrier before booking.

25+ years online

How long this company’s website has existed, from Internet Archive records. Very new websites are a common scam signal.

95 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

4 passed1 caution
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 16, 2026. Carrier, broker and freight-forwarder authority are separate categories. This federal result does not determine its eligibility for in-state moves; see the separate state-registry check.
  • Federal interstate household-goods carrier authority
    The captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 16, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
  • State household-goods licence
    Texas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry lists an active motor carrier certificate 000534796 (checked Oct 16, 2026).
  • Federal BIPD insurance filing (dated record)
    On-file BIPD amount ($750,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($750,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 16, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
  • Cancelled or revoked insurance filing on record
    1 cancelled or revoked insurance filing on record with FMCSA. Review the filing dates and reasons. This history does not by itself mean the company is currently uninsured. Whether coverage continued cannot be judged from the files: FMCSA’s own later record of the same filing is dated after the cancellation (BIPD cancelled 2011-12-11, later record dated 2012-11-11). FMCSA’s files hold 21 filing records for these 16 filings; 4 later records on filings that had already ended and 1 replacement record dated the filing’s own effective date are listed but not counted. FMCSA’s authority history also records 1 involuntary revocation action (served 2021-11-15, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2021-11-16), 2 revocation or suspension orders (INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2018-05-09, effective 2018-06-11; INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2011-11-14, effective 2011-12-19), 2 authority actions with a revocation, suspension or out-of-service disposition (REINSTATED served 2012-01-03, disposition REVOKED decided 2018-06-11; GRANTED served 2009-09-25, disposition REVOKED decided 2011-12-19) and 2 reinstatements (served 2018-06-20, 2012-01-03).
  • Review ratings compared across sources
    Google has an unknown number of reviews, too few to compare with Trustpilot's 114; star ratings differ by 0.1 stars.
  • Address and operating-location evidence
    Property use and a customer-accessible operating facility have not been established. A registered address, mailing address and local office can serve different purposes.

Address use and operating locations

A registered office, mailing address and operating facility can be different places. Residential or mailbox use alone does not establish improper operation.

No current source-backed property-use determination is available. This is a verification gap, not proof of a false address or a verified operating facility.

FMCSA regulatory snapshot

Authority status
What does this mean?Federal operating authority is category-specific: carrier, broker and freight-forwarder roles are separate. An active registration or one active role does not establish household-goods carrier authority. Operating restrictions are checked separately.

A company can hold several federal dockets over its lifetime. Only an Active docket grants operating authority. An inactive one is history, not a violation.

State household-goods licence

In-state moves are governed by the state, not the FMCSA. This is what Texas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry shows as of Oct 16, 2026.

By the exact name, the same address and an officer or owner named on this company’s records.
  • Limitation: Business registration is not a mover licence.
  • Limitation: The register did not display an entity-type field on the five record pages, so entity_type is null for each.
  • Limitation: The exact separate search for 3 MEN MOVERS LTD returned no data; the results above came from the submitted searches for 3 Men Movers and 3 MEN MOVERS, which returned five entries.
  • Limitation: The record for 3 MEN MOVERS SELF STORAGE LTD was not set up for Franchise Tax and displayed no formation date, status, agent, address, officers, or record as-of date.
  • Limitation: No Public Information Report was on file for the Port Bolivar 3 MEN MOVERS, LTD. record; no officers were displayed.

Verified customer experience reports

Structured accounts from customers who proved their move with a bill of lading or final invoice, a verified email, and a verified phone. No star ratings, no anonymous reviews, and nothing a company can pay to change — how this works.

No verified customer reports yet. Only customers who can document their move may submit one — that keeps the count honest, and it means it grows slowly.

How current is this report?

Report assembled Oct 16, 2026. First published Aug 29, 2026. This report pulls from 768 pieces of information across federal, state, review, and identity sources. Check each source's date for when its information was observed.

NMB does not invent facts. When a section reads "—" or "this check has not run yet," that means we have not been able to verify the information from a primary source. It does not mean the answer is good or bad.
