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.

Interstate HHG carrier authority

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

29+ years online

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

3 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

4 passed1 caution
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 9, 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 9, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
  • State household-goods licence
    Texas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry lists an active motor carrier certificate 005033499, valid through Oct 31, 2026 (checked Aug 18, 2026).
  • Federal BIPD insurance filing (dated record)
    On-file BIPD amount ($1,000,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($1,000,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 9, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
  • 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.

Company connections

Other businesses that share an identifier with this company, searched Oct 9, 2026. A shared phone, email, address or registration number is a documented fact. On its own it does not establish common ownership or a corporate relationship; that is stated separately for each entry.

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.

How it was tied to this business
By the exact name, the same address and an officer or owner named on this company’s records.
  • Limitation: Business registration is not a mover licence.
  • Limitation: The Comptroller record pages do not print an entity-type field, so entity_type is null.
  • Limitation: The register's displayed date is an Effective SOS Registration Date; no separate incorporation/formation date is printed.
  • Limitation: The exact legal-name query with the suffix (CENTRAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS INC) returned no rows, while the DBA and suffixless queries returned the systems record.
  • Limitation: A broader partial query for CENTRAL TRANSPORTATION also returned CENTRAL TRANSPORTATION CO INC (taxpayer number 14704845578), but its record page states: Taxpayer Number 14704845578 is not set up for Franchise Tax and provides no entity details; it was not treated as a near match to the requested SY

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 9, 2026. First published Oct 12, 2026. This report pulls from 380 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.
