  1. PROBLEM
    Website address is not the federal record address

    Website: 3550 E Long Ave, Suite 104, Fort Worth, TX 76137. FMCSA record: 1150 BLUE MOUND RD W STE 401, FORT WORTH, TX 76052.

    The office it advertises is not the address it gave the federal government.

  3. ON RECORD
    No federal operating authority — in-state mover

    SAFER operating-authority status: NOT AUTHORIZED. Federal authority is only required for moves that cross state lines; this company does not advertise them and declares Intrastate Only (Non-HM) to FMCSA.

    For an in-state move the state licence is what matters — see the state licence line.

  4. ON RECORD
    Not in FMCSA's interstate mover registry — no complaint history is published

    USDOT 1981377 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.

What kind of company is this?

Carrier

Hauls goods under its own federal authority. The company you hire is the company that moves you.

13+ years online

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

10 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

4 passed2 caution2 failed
  • 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 authority
    This 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 licence
    Texas DMV (TxDMV) motor-carrier registry lists an active motor carrier certificate 006253135, valid through Apr 30, 2028 (checked Aug 30, 2026).
  • Insurance currently on file
    On-file coverage ($750,000) meets or exceeds federal requirement ($750,000).
  • Reviews are consistent across sources
    Star ratings vary by 3.7 stars across Google, Yelp, BBB. Read the actual reviews before deciding.
  • Operates under a single brand name
    No alternate marketing brand names found on the company website.
  • Claimed years in business matches verified records
    Since 1989, so for 33 years on website matches 37 years (since 1/1/1989) from BBB business profile.
  • Claimed fleet size matches verified records
    Website says 7 trucks but FMCSA SAFER (power units) shows 10 power units (FMCSA). The claim is materially lower than verified.
  • Claimed employee count matches verified records
    Website says 50+ employees but FMCSA SAFER (drivers) shows 10 drivers (FMCSA), about 5× the verified value.

Other concerns we want to surface

  • •4 medium-confidence identity matches awaiting review (advisory; does not block publishing)
  • •Low BBB customer review rating (1.25/5)
  • •Related-entity links check: serious concern. Shared DOT/MC/FMCSA-address/phone with other moving companies

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.
10
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.
10
Insurance status
null
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.

What the reviews show

4 reviews read across BBB
Only 4 reviews could be read across BBB; too few to assess the pattern.
  • WEAK
    Google 4.9★ (review count not shown) vs BBB 1.3★ (4 reviews): a 3.7-star gap between platforms — Google and BBB rest on fewer than 10 reviews, so the gap is not a reliable signal (all platforms, n=4)

Verified customer experience reports

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.

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.
