What we found

Report assembled Oct 9, 2026 · Source observations are dated below
  1. COULD NOT VERIFY
    No State household-goods mover registry record found for this business

    We searched State household-goods mover registry on 09/04/2026 and found no certificate under this name.

    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.

  2. NOTE
    Yelp: 1.6★ from only 7 reviews

    Yelp rating 1.6/5. 7 reviews are too few to judge on their own; read them.

  3. ON RECORD
    Identified by its own website — no USDOT number displayed

    We read 6 pages of collegemovers.us. The site prints phone (801) 800-9536 and describes its own moving services. No USDOT or MC number appears on it. A name search of the free federal registries (SAFER, MOTUS) returned 20 registrations; the 4 closest by name were compared with this business's phone, email, and name and city, and none matched. The other 16 were not compared.

    Local moves within AZ do not need federal operating authority; the state licence line on this page says what the state register shows.

  4. ON RECORD
    Arizona Corporation Commission eCorp could not be checked in this report

    The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. The submitted search for "College Movers" could not proceed to readable results because of the CAPTCHA. The requested separate searches for "College Movers LLC" and the suffixless name could not be completed. The supplied legacy URL https://ecorp.azcc.gov/EntitySearch/Index now presents an Arizona Corporation Commission login page rather than a public entity-search results interface. No entity record page, entity ID, status, dates, agent, officers, address, or as-of date could be confirmed from the official register. The register search was blocked: CAPTCHA/user validation blocked the official Arizona Business Center business-name search after submission; the site required entering six characters shown in an image before displaying results.

  5. ON RECORD
    Follow-up: a page first read as another business lists this company itself

    The Instagram profile identifies itself as College Movers | Residential & Commercial Moving, advertises 801-800-9536 and collegemovers.us, and does not establish a relationship to a Phoenix business.

    The permitted source does not verify state-register or FMCSA filings, shared people, addresses, Phoenix operations, or any consumer statement about succession or rebranding; those connections remain unverified.

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.

5+ years online

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

6 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

1 caution
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    No active federal authority captured. Observed Sep 3, 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
    An own-carrier authority check is not applicable to the recorded broker/forwarder role, parent-authority relationship, or declared in-state operation. Observed Sep 3, 2026. This does not rule out separate broker authority. Eligibility for in-state moves is checked separately in the state registry.
  • State household-goods licence
    We searched State household-goods mover registry (checked Sep 4, 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 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.
  • Address and operating-location evidence
    Property 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.

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.

Follow-up on unresolved leads

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 Sep 3, 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.
Not applicable to the recorded role or in-state scopeObserved Sep 3, 2026

Trucks
What does this mean?FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases.
6
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.

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.

State household-goods licence

We searched State household-goods mover registry on Sep 4, 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 current is this report?

Report assembled Oct 9, 2026. First published Oct 12, 2026. This report pulls from 355 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.
