What we found

Report assembled Oct 14, 2026 · Source observations are dated below
  1. PROBLEM
    Only free-mail business addresses captured on the examined pages

    makemovespgh@gmail.com — the examined pages did not provide a mailbox on the company's own domain (makemovesllc.com). Other pages or mailboxes were not ruled out.

    Source: company website · as of Oct 14, 2026

  2. PROBLEM
    Says “licensed” / “PUC licensed” — prints no licence number

    No USDOT, MC or state licence number appears anywhere in the site text we read.

    A licence claim with no number is unverifiable.

    Source: company website · as of Oct 14, 2026

  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 2864360.

    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
    Another business, “Website for moving companies in Pittsburgh”, shares this company’s website domain makemovesllc.com

    A web page for “Website for moving companies in Pittsburgh” shows this company’s website domain makemovesllc.com. Excerpt: “makemovesllc.com — 61/100 (C). No H1 heading — the page lacks a clear headline for visitors and search engines.; Built on Squarespace — limited design ...”

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

    The shared contact identifier is a connection worth understanding before you book.

    Before booking: Ask the company what its relationship is to “Website for moving companies in Pittsburgh” and make sure the name on your contract is the company you expect.

    Source: web page — Website for moving companies in Pittsburgh · as of Oct 14, 2026

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

    The cited page establishes only that makemovesllc.com was one of five Pittsburgh moving-company websites audited by FApps, scoring 61/100 and being identified as built on Squarespace; it does not establish a relationship with a business named Make Moves LLC.

    The permitted source contains no state-register filing, FMCSA record, shared person, address, succession or rebranding statement, or consumer statement, so ownership, identity, succession, and rebranding remain unverified.

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

  6. ON RECORD
    USDOT 2864360: no federal operating authority recorded

    SAFER operating-authority status: NOT AUTHORIZED. The registration declares Intrastate Only (Non-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.

    Source: Captured FMCSA record · as of Oct 14, 2026

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

    USDOT 2864360 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.

    Source: FMCSA Protect Your Move search · as of Oct 14, 2026

  8. ON RECORD
    BBB has not rated this business — not accredited

    The BBB profile shows no letter grade (NR). Saved capture of 2026-10-14; this is not a current rating. On 2026-10-14 a bounded BBB search did not return this listing; that is not evidence the listing is gone. Visible reviews are empty, and only a complaint count with a general status is available without specific details about the complaint. Source observations: accreditation 2026-10-14T08:22:05.77915+00:00.

    Source: BBB profile

  9. ON RECORD
    Pennsylvania Department of State Business Search could not be checked in this report

    The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. No search was submitted for MAKE MOVES LLC. No separate search could be performed for the supplied name variants because the official register was blocked before the search interface became usable. No entity record pages, entity IDs, statuses, formation dates, registered agents, officers, addresses, or record-level dates could be read or confirmed. The official search page itself displayed that filings had been processed through 10/08/2026 as of 10/13/2026, but this is not a record result and does not establish a match. The register search was blocked: The official Pennsylvania Business Search at https://file.dos.pa.gov/search/business was blocked by its Security Verification Required anti-automation challenge (the page displayed 'We need to verify that you're a legitimate visitor'). The challenge did not complete, so no search could be submitted or results read.

  10. ON RECORD
    3 other businesses listed at this street address

    “D&A Rental Car Service Llc” (directory); “Pittsburgh Fence Co Inc in 551 E Main St, Carnegie, PA 15106” (web page); “Deans Logistics LLC in 533 E Main St, Carnegie, PA 15106” (web page). This is operating-location context: a multi-tenant building or suite shared with unrelated businesses.

    A shared street address alone does not indicate any corporate relationship; suite numbers and tenancy were not compared.

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.

Intrastate operation reported

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.

13+ years online

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

3 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

2 caution
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    No active federal authority captured. 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
    An own-carrier authority check is not applicable to the recorded broker/forwarder role, parent-authority relationship, or declared in-state operation. Observed Oct 14, 2026. This does not rule out separate broker authority. Eligibility for in-state moves is checked separately in the state registry.
  • 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 insurance status
    We do not have a consistent, dated insurance amount observation matched to this company’s USDOT. This is a verification gap, not a finding that the company is uninsured.
  • Review ratings compared across sources
    Star ratings differ by 1.0 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.

Company connections

Other businesses that share an identifier with this company, searched Oct 14, 2026. A shared phone, email, address or registration number is a documented fact. On its own it does not establish common ownership or a corporate relationship; that is stated separately for each entry.

  • Shared identifier — relationship not verified

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.
No active federal authority capturedObserved Oct 14, 2026
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)
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.
Not applicable to the recorded role or in-state scopeObserved Oct 14, 2026

Trucks
What does this mean?FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases.

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.

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.

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