Advertises interstate moves; its website shows no USDOT or MC number on the pages we read
What we found
Report assembled Oct 9, 2026 · Source observations are dated below- SERIOUSAdvertises interstate moves; its website shows no USDOT or MC number on the pages we read
None of the 3 page(s) we read (home, contact, pricing) shows a USDOT or MC number in text. Interstate household-goods movers must show their USDOT number in advertising (49 CFR 375.207).
The pages we examined did not provide a USDOT or MC number to check. Ask which registration would carry your interstate move.
Source: company website · as of Oct 9, 2026
- PROBLEMSays “licensed and insured” — prints no licence number
“Licensed & Insured”. No USDOT, MC or state licence number appears anywhere in the site text we read.
A licence claim with no number is unverifiable.

- ON RECORDNot in FMCSA's interstate mover registry — no complaint history is published
USDOT 1011944 does not appear in FMCSA's Protect Your Move household-goods mover registry, so the National Consumer Complaint Database history is not published for it. FMCSA keeps that history for registered interstate movers only.

Changes on the public record
Changes observed in this company's federal and state records during the last 90 days. Each entry shows when the change was observed.
- Oct 1, 2026MEDIUMNew operating authority on record: MC163102 Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods) — Active.
What kind of company is this?
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.
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.
What we checked
- Federal operating authority (FMCSA)Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 14, 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 14, 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 licenceWe could not complete the California Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS) lookup (checked Aug 30, 2026). This is a gap in our check, not a finding about the company.
- Federal BIPD insurance filing (dated record)On-file BIPD amount ($750,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($750,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 9, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
- 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 (BIPD cancelled 1999-04-01, next filing effective 2001-04-01; CARGO cancelled 1999-04-01, next filing effective 2002-04-01). For 4 of them FMCSA records a filing of the same coverage type in effect on the cancellation date. FMCSA also records 1 filing cancelled the day it took effect (BIPD, 2010-05-11); it never provided coverage. FMCSA’s files hold 32 filing records for these 22 filings; 8 later records on filings that had already ended and 2 replacement records dated the filing’s own effective date are listed but not counted. FMCSA’s authority history also records 1 involuntary revocation action (served 2007-06-21, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2007-07-03), 2 revocation or suspension orders (INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2021-04-29, effective 2021-06-08; INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 1999-04-28, effective 1999-04-01), 3 authority actions with a revocation, suspension or out-of-service disposition (REINSTATED served 2002-04-12, disposition REVOKED decided 2021-06-08; GRANTED served 1983-07-18, disposition REVOKED decided 1999-06-16; GRANTED served 1983-01-10, disposition REVOKED decided 1999-06-16) and 2 reinstatements (served 2021-06-23, 2002-04-12). 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.
- Review ratings compared across sourcesStar ratings are within 0.6 stars of each other across 2 review sources, each with at least 10 reviews.
- 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. - Active federal authority: carrierObserved Oct 14, 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 14, 2026

- Trucks
What does this mean?
FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases. - 5
- 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. - 4

- ActiveMC163102Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods)
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 California Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS) on Aug 30, 2026.
