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.

1 truck on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

3 passed1 caution
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    Active federal authority: carrier. 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 reports interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 10, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
  • State household-goods licence
    We searched State household-goods mover registry (checked Oct 9, 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 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.
  • Review ratings compared across sources
    BBB has only 2 reviews, too few to compare with Google's 142; star ratings differ by 1.9 stars.
  • 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.

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.

Operating authority dockets
ActiveMC526267Motor Carrier of 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. This is what State household-goods mover registry shows as of Oct 9, 2026.

We searched State household-goods mover registry on Oct 9, 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 it was tied to this business
By the exact name and the same address.
  • Limitation: Business registration is not a mover licence.
  • Limitation: The register's record summaries do not display an as-of or last-updated date, so source_date is null for both records.
  • Limitation: For the active Gentry, Inc. record, the register's search results showed a blank Inactive status and the record page did not print a separate status word; status is therefore null rather than inferred as Active.
  • Limitation: The exact-name search for GENTRY MOVING & STORAGE returned no records; the active Gentry, Inc. record was found through the register's GENTRY begins-with search, which listed Gentry Moving and Storage as a name associated with the same identification number.
  • Limitation: An active registered agent does not make a defaulted company active; the status word is the register's own.

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.
