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

- Federal operating authority (FMCSA)No active federal authority captured. 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 authorityThe captured FMCSA record does not show interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 16, 2026. This does not rule out separate broker authority; see the category-specific federal dockets. It does not determine eligibility for in-state moves or another operating carrier.
- State household-goods licenceTexas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry lists an active motor carrier certificate 009860039 (checked Oct 16, 2026).
- Federal insurance statusWe do not have a consistent, dated insurance amount observation matched to this company’s USDOT. This is a verification gap, not a finding that the company is uninsured.
- Cancelled or revoked insurance filings on record6 cancelled or revoked insurance filings on record with FMCSA. Review the filing dates and reasons. This history does not by itself mean the company is currently uninsured. 2 cancellations left no filing of the same coverage in effect on the cancellation date (CARGO cancelled 2021-06-11, next filing effective 2022-03-23; CARGO cancelled 2020-07-11, next filing effective 2021-03-23). For 4 of them FMCSA records a filing of the same coverage type in effect on the cancellation date. 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.
- Address and operating-location evidenceProperty 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. - No active federal authority capturedObserved Oct 16, 2026
- Carrier operation
- Interstate
- 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. - No — not shown in the captured recordObserved Oct 16, 2026
- Operating status
What does this mean?
This means the company's USDOT registration is active in the FMCSA database. It does NOT mean the company is authorized to operate as a federal interstate mover. See "Authority status" above for that. A carrier can have an ACTIVE USDOT registration but still not be authorized to do interstate moves. - ACTIVE
- Trucks
What does this mean?
FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases. - 1
- 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. - 2
- Insurance status
- —
- Safety rating
What does this mean?
FMCSA only assigns a safety rating after conducting a Compliance Review (a formal on-site audit). Most carriers have never been audited. About 90% of registered carriers carry no rating. "Not rated" is normal; it does not mean the carrier failed an audit or is unsafe. It only means an audit has not happened. - Not rated
