What we checked
- Federally licensed (FMCSA)FMCSA shows authority as "NOT AUTHORIZED." This mover is not currently authorized to operate as a federal carrier.
- Federal interstate household-goods authorityThis carrier is registered with FMCSA as intrastate-only, so federal household-goods authority does not apply to in-state moves. It would need federal authority before performing an interstate move. State licensing governs in-state moves — see the state registry check.
- State household-goods licenceTexas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry lists an active motor carrier certificate 006604158, valid through Sep 30, 2027 (checked Sep 1, 2026).
- Insurance currently on fileWe have not been able to confirm this company’s insurance status.
- Reviews are consistent across sourcesStar ratings are within 1.2 stars of each other across 2 review sources.
- Claimed years in business matches verified recordsWebsite says founded in 2012 but BBB business profile shows 14 years (since 1/1/2012). The claim is materially lower than verified.
- Claimed fleet size matches verified recordsWebsite says Not specified but FMCSA SAFER (power units) shows 80 power units (FMCSA). The claim is materially lower than verified.
- Claimed employee count matches verified recordsWebsite says 50+ people but FMCSA SAFER (drivers) shows 182 drivers (FMCSA). The claim is materially lower than verified.
Other concerns we want to surface
- •Carrier vs broker disclosure check: serious concern
FMCSA regulatory snapshot
- Authority status
What does this mean?
"Authority" is the FMCSA permission to operate as a federal interstate carrier. NOT AUTHORIZED / INACTIVE means the carrier cannot legally accept interstate moves under federal rules. ACTIVE means they have permission to operate. - NOT AUTHORIZED
- 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)
- Authorized for HHG
What does this mean?
"HHG" stands for Household Goods, the federal category covering home moves. A carrier without HHG authority is not allowed to move home contents across state lines under federal law. - No
- 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. - 80
- 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. - 182
- 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
- DOT complaints (FMCSA)
- We could not verify complaints for this companyNot listed in FMCSA's Protect Your Move mover registry, so no NCCDB complaint history is published for this USDOT number. FMCSA keeps that history for registered interstate household-goods movers only. This is not a clean record — it is an unknown one. Check FMCSA's mover search yourself before you book.
- FMCSA enforcement & investigations
- No enforcement cases (six years) · SMS record
- Physical address
- 9200 BROWN LANE, AUSTIN, TX 78754
State household-goods licence
In-state moves are governed by the state, not the FMCSA. This is what Texas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry shows as of Sep 1, 2026.
Reviews and complaints — every platform we check
Each platform is shown whether or not this company has a listing. “No listing found” means we searched by name and city and nothing matched — it is a fact, not a rating.
What the reviews show
3 reviews read across BBBThe website says 4.9★ from 8,100 reviews. We could read 681 (Yelp 678, BBB 3, Trustpilot 0); Google could not be counted, so this is not the company’s total.
- WEAKThe website claims 4.9★ from 8100 reviews without naming a platform; we could read a review count on 3 of the four platforms we check — Yelp 678, BBB 3 and Trustpilot 0. Google’s listing was found but showed no review count, so we cannot say how many reviews this company has across platforms and the claim is neither confirmed nor contradicted (all platforms, n=678)
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.
