What we found
Report assembled Oct 10, 2026 · Source observations are dated below- SERIOUSAdvertises interstate moves; its website shows no USDOT or MC number on the pages we read
None of the 6 page(s) we read (home, contact, about, pricing, faq, licensing) shows a USDOT or MC number in text. Interstate household-goods movers must show their USDOT number in advertising (49 CFR 375.207).
Its own federal record shows active household-goods authority (USDOT 3365308, MC-1093543); the requirement is to show the USDOT number in its advertising. Confirm the carrier named on your estimate and bill of lading, and check its numbers.

- ON RECORDTennessee Secretary of State Business Information Search could not be checked in this report
The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. No company-name search was actually submitted, so no result list was read and no entity record pages could be opened. Because the search was not performed, I could not confirm any matching entity name, control number, entity type, status, formation date, registered agent, officers, address, record URL, or source date. The current official page displayed an as-of notice stating that, as of October 10, 2026, filings and annual reports received through October 7, 2026 had been processed; this is not a company record and does not establish a match. The register search was blocked: The official Tennessee business-entity search was blocked by a Cloudflare 'Checking your Browser' / Turnstile challenge before a query could be submitted. The specified legacy URL https://tnbear.tn.gov/ECommerce/FilingSearch.aspx also timed out/returned a connection reset.

What kind of company is this?
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.
The captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods authority. Confirm its current status and the operating carrier before booking.
How long this company’s website has existed, from Internet Archive records. Very new websites are a common scam signal.

What we checked
- Federal operating authority (FMCSA)Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 14, 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 authorityThe captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 14, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
- State household-goods licenceWe searched State household-goods mover registry (checked Oct 14, 2026) and found no record for this business. That may mean it is not licensed in this state, or that it operates under a different legal name — it is not itself proof of a violation.
- 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 10, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
- Cancelled or revoked insurance filing on record1 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: the cancellation date or coverage type is not listed.
- Review ratings compared across sourcesBBB has only 4 reviews, too few to compare with Trustpilot's 1433; star ratings differ by 3.6 stars.
- Address and operating-location evidenceWebsite and federal records list different addresses. See the dated sources and address roles below; these signals alone do not establish improper operation.
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. - Active federal authority: carrierObserved Oct 14, 2026

- Interstate HHG carrier authority
What does this mean?
"HHG" means Household Goods. This field checks interstate carrier authority, not separate broker authority. A "No" here does not rule out broker authority; consult the category-specific federal dockets below. - Yes — authority recordedObserved Oct 14, 2026

What does this mean?
FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases. - 4

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 State household-goods mover registry shows as of Oct 14, 2026.
