  2. PROBLEM
    Another business, “Bff Petwash”, shares the phone number printed on this company’s website, (201) 878-8483

    A web page for “Bff Petwash” shows the phone number printed on this company’s website, (201) 878-8483. Excerpt: “Call (201) 878-8483 to ask about your pet. They'll take it from there. Call Bff. Something out of date or not right here? Report a problem ...”

    A shared identifier shows a connection; it does not establish common ownership, succession or responsibility. The corporate relationship is not verified.

    The same phone number listed for two business names is a connection worth understanding before you book.

    Before booking: Ask the company what its relationship is to “Bff Petwash” and make sure the name on your contract is the company you expect.

  4. CAUTION
    Website and federal records list different addresses

    Website (observed 2026-10-10T20:14:23.940Z): 717 S Kirkman Rd, Orlando, FL 32811; 2578 Clark St #5, Apopka, Florida 32703. FMCSA physical address (observed 2026-10-10T20:14:24.151Z): 405 SUNPORT LANE #450, ORLANDO, FL 32809. FMCSA mailing address: 405 SUNPORT LANE #450, ORLANDO, FL 32809.

  5. NOTE
    Follow-up on a related business: partly established

    The permitted Bff Petwash page identifies a Brooklyn business at 192 Driggs Ave, links to bffpetwash.com, and lists phone number (718) 349-8705, but it does not establish a relationship with Cento Family Moving & Storage.

    No state-register, FMCSA, court, or other government record was available under the mandatory one-page source restriction; the page does not mention Cento Family Moving & Storage, phone number 2018788483, shared people, succession, or rebranding, and it provides no printed full date (only references to Sep 2026). Therefore ownership, common personnel, common address, any shared website, and the alleged succession or rebranding remain unverified.

    Ask the company what its relationship is to the other business before you book.

    The permitted Facebook page identifies Cisco the Magician as a Jersey City, New Jersey page listing (201) 878-8483, an email address, and a Facebook website, but it does not establish a relationship to Cento Family Moving & Storage.

    The allowed source does not verify Cento Family Moving & Storage's state registration, FMCSA record, people, address, website, or any shared person or ownership; it also contains no consumer statement about succession or rebranding, and the alleged phone-number connection to Cento remains unverified under the source restriction.

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.

13+ years online

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

2 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

1 caution2 failed
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    No active federal authority captured. Observed Oct 10, 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 does not show interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 10, 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 licence
    We could not complete the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) lookup (checked Oct 10, 2026). This is a gap in our check, not a finding about the company.
  • Federal insurance status
    We 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.
  • Review ratings compared across sources
    Google has an unknown number of reviews and BBB has only 1 review, too few to compare with Yelp's 25; star ratings differ by 3.6 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.

Serious concerns and company connections

Read these findings before booking or paying a deposit. Key evidence and the action to take are shown below.

Concern — verify before booking

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.

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 10, 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.

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. We tried to read Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) on Oct 10, 2026.

We could not complete the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) lookup (last attempt Oct 10, 2026). This is a gap in our check, not a finding about the company.
