  1. PROBLEM
    Another business, “BLUE WAVE TOUR INC”, shares the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (740) 775-6683 (also printed on its site)

    A web page for “BLUE WAVE TOUR INC” shows the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (740) 775-6683 (also printed on its site). Excerpt: “Status - Active MC-129321 USDOT 183389. 747 MARIETTA ROAD CHILLICOTHE, OH 45601 +1 (740) 775-6683. HOOSIER TRANSIT INC. Status - Active MC-287659 USDOT 600614.”

    A shared identifier shows a connection; it does not establish common ownership, succession or responsibility. The corporate relationship is not verified.

    The same phone number listed for two business names is a connection worth understanding before you book.

    Before booking: Ask the company what its relationship is to “BLUE WAVE TOUR INC” and make sure the name on your contract is the company you expect.

  3. COULD NOT VERIFY
    No State household-goods mover registry record found for this business

    We searched State household-goods mover registry on 10/13/2026 and found no certificate under this name or USDOT 183389.

    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.

  4. NOTE
    FMCSA's mover registry and captured registration disagree on household-goods carrier or broker authority

    Protect Your Move (registry data as of 09/25/2026): "HERLIHY MOVING AND STORAGE, INC. (U.S. DOT# 183389) is NOT authorized by FMCSA to transport or arrange the transportation of Household Goods.". Captured SAFER/MOTUS record: household-goods carrier or broker authority active (MC129321 Motor Carrier of Household Goods — Active; MC129321 Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods) — Active).

    Check the dated FMCSA records before relying on this authority category.

  5. NOTE
    Follow-up on a related business: partly established

    The permitted Dcontrol page identifies BLUE WAVE TOUR INC as an active Honolulu carrier with USDOT 2198763 and phone +1 (808) 942-5403, but it does not establish any relationship to Herlihy Moving & Storage in Grove City, Ohio or the phone number 7407756683.

    No state-register filing, government-hosted FMCSA record, shared person, shared address, website connection, succession or rebranding statement, or consumer statement about Herlihy was verified because the only permitted source was the Dcontrol profile page; that page also shows no reviews and does not name Herlihy or 7407756683.

    Ask the company what its relationship is to the other business before you book.

  8. ON RECORD
    Ohio Secretary of State Business Search could not be checked in this report

    The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. The official landing page and its search options were readable, including Business Name, Exact Business Name, and Prior Business Name, but the security interstitial prevented submitting searches for HERLIHY MOVING AND STORAGE INC, Herlihy Moving & Storage, or suffix-free variants. No official search-results list or entity record page was available; therefore entity ID, type, status, formation date, registered agent, officers, address, source date, and record URL could not be confirmed. Because no search ran, completeness across matching, inactive, dissolved, revoked, defaulted, or similarly named entities could not be established. The register search was blocked: The official Ohio Secretary of State Business Search was blocked by its security check before the search form became usable. The browser remained on a "Just a moment..." page stating that the site conducts a brief security check before proceeding, so no name search could be submitted and no results or record pages could be read.

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

    The specified Ohio page presents the self-storage operation as Herlihy Moving Storage Inc and lists a Grove City facility at 3759 Jackson Pike using (614) 871-4040, but it does not establish the legal relationship to a separate Herlihy Moving & Storage business.

    Within the mandated source, no state-register filing, FMCSA record, shared person, consumer statement, succession claim, or rebranding claim is provided; ownership, corporate identity, and any legal connection remain unverified.

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: MC129321 Motor Carrier of Household Goods — Active.
  • Oct 1, 2026MEDIUMNew operating authority on record: MC129321 Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods) — Active.

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.

25+ years online

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

2 trucks on file

What we checked

3 passed2 caution1 failed
  • 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 authority
    The captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 14, 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 13, 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 14, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
  • Cancelled or revoked insurance filings on record
    5 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 1989-04-17, next filing effective 1997-01-01; CARGO cancelled 1989-02-19, next filing effective 2000-01-01). For 3 of them FMCSA records a filing of the same coverage type in effect on the cancellation date. FMCSA’s files hold 21 filing records for these 18 filings; 3 later records on filings that had already ended are listed but not counted. FMCSA’s authority history also records 1 involuntary revocation action (served 2021-11-03, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2021-11-30), 1 authority action with a revocation, suspension or out-of-service disposition (GRANTED served 1982-02-16, disposition REVOKED decided 1989-05-01) and 1 reinstatement (served 2000-03-13). 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 sources
    Star ratings differ by 1.3 stars across Google, Yelp. Read reviews on each platform before relying on any single rating.
  • 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.

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 13, 2026.

We searched State household-goods mover registry on Oct 13, 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.

State business entity record

Ohio Secretary of State Business Search · checked Oct 14, 2026. A business-entity registration is separate from federal moving authority and from a state mover licence.
