Report assembled Oct 16, 2026 · Source observations are dated below

PROBLEM
Only free-mail business addresses captured on the examined pages
martinmovingandstorage@gmail.com — the examined pages did not provide a mailbox on the company's own domain (martinmovingandstorage.com). Other pages or mailboxes were not ruled out.

COULD NOT VERIFY
No State household-goods mover registry record found for this business
We searched State household-goods mover registry on 10/09/2026 and found no certificate under this name or USDOT 56933.
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.
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): "MARTIN MOVING & STORAGE CO. (U.S. DOT# 56933) 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 (MC100315 Motor Carrier of Household Goods — Active; MC100315 Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods) — Active).
Check the dated FMCSA records before relying on this authority category.

ON RECORD
Connecticut Secretary of the State Business Records Search could not be checked in this report
The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. No official register results list or entity record page could be read because the site's CAPTCHA verification blocked submission. The requested legal names MARTIN MOVING & STORAGE COMPANY and Martin Moving & Storage could not be searched separately or compared against register results. No entity ID, type, status, formation date, registered agent, officers, address, source date, or record URL could be confirmed from the register. The register search was blocked: CAPTCHA was not verified on the official Connecticut Business Records Search page after submitting the company name, so the register did not return search results.

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.

3 trucks on file

Fleet size reported in federal filings.

What we checked

3 passed2 caution

Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 16, 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 16, 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 16, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
Cancelled or revoked insurance filing on record
1 cancelled or revoked insurance filing on record with FMCSA. Review the filing dates and reasons. This history does not by itself mean the company is currently uninsured. FMCSA records a filing of the same coverage type in effect on the cancellation date. FMCSA’s files hold 28 filing records for these 18 filings; 7 later records on filings that had already ended and 3 replacement records dated the filing’s own effective date are listed but not counted. FMCSA’s authority history also records 6 involuntary revocation actions (served 2013-12-23, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2013-12-23; served 2005-11-07, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2005-12-12; served 2005-08-11, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2005-08-29; served 1998-03-19, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 1998-04-15; served 1994-09-10, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION; served 1989-04-06, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION), 1 revocation or suspension order (INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2022-04-05, effective 2022-05-11), 2 authority actions with a revocation, suspension or out-of-service disposition (GRANTED served 1986-08-19, disposition REVOKED decided 2022-05-12; GRANTED served 1981-04-24, disposition REVOKED decided 2022-05-12) and 1 reinstatement (served 2023-07-28). 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
Yelp has only 9 reviews, too few to compare with Google's 48; star ratings differ by 2.2 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.: Active federal authority: carrierObserved Oct 16, 2026
Carrier operation: Interstate
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.: Yes — authority recordedObserved Oct 16, 2026
Operating status: ACTIVE
Trucks What does this mean? FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases.: 3
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.: 3
Insurance status: —
Safety rating: Satisfactory
DOT complaints (FMCSA): No consumer complaints filed with FMCSA in the last four yearsBy year: none in the last four years · registry data as of Sep 25, 2026 · FMCSA complaint history

Operating authority dockets: ActiveMC100315Motor Carrier of Household Goods
ActiveMC100315Motor Carrier of Property (Except 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.

State business entity record

Connecticut Secretary of the State Business Records Search · checked Oct 10, 2026. A business-entity registration is separate from federal moving authority and from a state mover licence.

Connecticut Secretary of the State Business Records Search was not available when checked on Oct 10, 2026. Registration status is unverified.

Limitation: Business registration is not a mover licence.
Limitation: No official register results list or entity record page could be read because the site's CAPTCHA verification blocked submission.
Limitation: The requested legal names MARTIN MOVING & STORAGE COMPANY and Martin Moving & Storage could not be searched separately or compared against register results.
Limitation: No entity ID, type, status, formation date, registered agent, officers, address, source date, or record URL could be confirmed from the register.
Limitation: The register search was blocked: CAPTCHA was not verified on the official Connecticut Business Records Search page after submitting the company name, so the register did not return search results.
