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 federal record reports in-state operation. This is a declared operating scope, not verification of a state license. See the separate licensing checks.
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.
Fleet size reported in federal filings.
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.
Read these findings before booking or paying a deposit. Key evidence and the action to take are shown below.

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.
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.
Minnesota Secretary of State Business Search · checked Oct 13, 2026. A business-entity registration is separate from federal moving authority and from a state mover licence.
Each shares a name with this company and nothing else that the record could confirm. Their status is not this company’s status.

Detailed listing checks and review analysis are included in the full report.
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.
