What we found

Report assembled Oct 14, 2026 · Source observations are dated below
  1. PROBLEM
    Ratings disagree sharply between platforms

    Google 4.7★ (725 reviews) vs Yelp 1.6★ (23 reviews): a 3.1-star gap between platforms

    When one platform is glowing and another is not, the difference is the story — read both.

  2. PROBLEM
    Yelp: 1.6★ from 23 reviews

    Yelp rating 1.6/5.

    Source: Yelp listing · as of Oct 13, 2026

  3. CAUTION
    Website and federal records list different addresses

    Website (observed 2026-10-13T03:26:45.436Z): 801 Transfer Rd, St Paul, MN 55114; 2050 E Center Cir, Plymouth, MN 55441. FMCSA physical address (observed 2026-10-14T06:25:48.485Z): 310 4TH AVE S STE 5010 PMB 93702, MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55415-1053. FMCSA mailing address: 310 4TH AVE S STE 5010 PMB 93702, MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55415-1053.

    Different branches, a relocation, or different reporting dates may explain the difference. Confirm the current operating office and the location handling your move.

  4. COULD NOT VERIFY
    No State household-goods mover registry record found for this business

    We searched State household-goods mover registry on 10/09/2026 and found no certificate under this name or USDOT 3928585.

    Ask for the current certificate number and exact licensed legal name, then verify them with the state. This search result does not establish that the company is unlicensed.

  5. NOTE
    MCS-150 says intrastate-only while it holds interstate authority

    FMCSA carrier operation (MCS-150): Intrastate Only (Non-HM). The website says: “Cross-Country Moving”. Operating authority on record: Motor Carrier of Household Goods.

    The registration form is out of date; the authority itself is active.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.

Intrastate operation reported

The captured federal record reports in-state operation. This is a declared operating scope, not verification of a state license. See the separate licensing checks.

Interstate HHG carrier authority

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

2+ years online

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

1 truck on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

3 passed2 caution
  • 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 authority
    The 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 licence
    We searched State household-goods mover registry (checked Oct 9, 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 ($300,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($300,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 14, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
  • No cancelled insurance filings in the records read; later history not read
    No cancelled or revoked filings were identified in the records reviewed, which do not cover this company’s full filing history. FMCSA's open data shows this USDOT's filing history only up to 2026-05-14: the legacy L&I files stopped updating that day, and the MOTUS files, which hold later changes, list no record for this USDOT. A filing change after 2026-05-14 was not available when checked.
  • Review ratings compared across sources
    BBB has only 5 reviews, too few to compare with Google's 725; star ratings differ by 3.1 stars.
  • Address and operating-location evidence
    Website 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
Carrier operation
What does this mean?This carrier is registered to operate only within one state. Federal interstate authority does not apply to intrastate-only carriers, which is why federal insurance and authority status fields may show as "Not Specified" or "Not Authorized."
Intrastate Only (Non-hazardous materials)
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
Operating status

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

Drivers
What does this mean?Drivers the carrier has registered with FMCSA. This is the official number; some carriers operate with more drivers than registered.

Operating authority dockets
ActiveMC1521934Motor Carrier of Household Goods

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 9, 2026.

We searched State household-goods mover registry on Oct 9, 2026 and found no record for this business. That may mean it is not licensed here, or that it is registered under a different legal name.

How it was tied to this business
By the exact name and an officer or owner named on this company’s records.
  • Limitation: Business registration is not a mover licence.
  • Limitation: The register does not display an as-of or last-updated date on these record pages, so source_date is null.
  • Limitation: The register prints no registered agent or officers/directors/managers/members for the two assumed-name records; those fields were left null/empty rather than inferred from the applicant.
  • Limitation: Searches were run separately for each supplied legal name and for suffix-free/partial variants, using both Active and Inactive status scopes. The broadest matching searches returned the three records above; no pagination or load-more control was displayed on the results pages.
  • Limitation: An active registered agent does not make a defaulted company active; the status word is the register's own.

Same-name entities not tied to this business

Each shares a name with this company and nothing else that the record could confirm. Their status is not this company’s status.

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 14, 2026. First published Oct 13, 2026. This report pulls from 660 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.
