USDOT 3898067 · FMCSA SAFER · observed
Says “licensed” / “CPUC licensed” — prints no licence number

A licence claim with no number is unverifiable.

We searched New York State Department of Transportation on 10/10/2026 and found no certificate under this name or USDOT 3898067.
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.

SAFER operating-authority status: NOT AUTHORIZED. The registration declares Intrastate Only (HM) to FMCSA. This does not establish the business's advertised service area.
For an interstate move, verify which carrier will perform the move and its operating authority. For an in-state move, check the applicable state licence.

Cargo on the FMCSA record: General Freight, Motor Vehicles, Drive/Tow away. Household Goods is not checked, and the Household Goods operating authority is not active.
Cargo declarations and operating authority are separate records. This checkbox alone does not establish which moves the company may perform.

USDOT 3898067 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.

The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. No searches could be submitted for Lyft, Inc., LYFT TOWING LLC, Lyft, or the names without suffixes. No official result list or entity record pages could be opened, so entity names, IDs, types, statuses, dates, agents, officers, addresses, source URLs, and source dates could not be confirmed. Because no result list was returned, completeness across matching entities and any pagination could not be assessed. The register search was blocked: The official New York Department of State public inquiry site (https://apps.dos.ny.gov/publicInquiry/) was reachable through the page scraper, but interactive access required to submit a name search returned ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE ('apps.dos.ny.gov didn’t send any data'). Therefore no search could be submitted and no results or record pages could be read.
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.
The captured federal record reports in-state operation. This is a declared operating scope, not verification of a state license. See the separate licensing checks.
Fleet size reported in federal filings.
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.

Detailed listing checks and review analysis are included in the full report.
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.
Moved with Lyft? — you will need your bill of lading or final invoice, and a phone that can receive a code.
