- COULD NOT VERIFYNo State household-goods mover registry record found for this business
We searched State household-goods mover registry on 09/02/2026 and found no certificate under this name or USDOT 2929832.
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.
- NOTEFollow-up on a related business: still unresolved
The permitted page is a generic reverse-lookup page that reports “David Chen” in Austin, TX and does not establish a relationship between [name withheld] Moving and Architecture Think Tank LLC Co.
No state-register filing, FMCSA record, shared person, address, website, succession statement, or rebranding statement was verified from the permitted page; the phone-number/business relationship remains unverified.
Ask the company what its relationship is to the other business before you book.

- ON RECORDKansas Secretary of State Business Entity Search could not be checked in this report
The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. No name search could be submitted, so no entity matches or non-matches could be confirmed. The official record pages, entity IDs, statuses, entity types, dates, registered agents, officers, addresses, and as-of dates could not be read because the site presented a human-verification challenge before the search interface. The accessible Kansas Secretary of State Businesses page links its Business Search to the same official URL; no alternate official record interface was available without encountering the challenge. The register search was blocked: CAPTCHA/human-verification challenge on the official Kansas Secretary of State Business Entity Search page (https://www.sos.ks.gov/eforms/BusinessEntity/Search.aspx) prevented access to the search form and results.

What kind of company is this?
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 FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods authority. Confirm its current status and the operating carrier before booking.
How long this company’s website has existed, from Internet Archive records. Very new websites are a common scam signal.
Fleet size reported in federal filings.
What we checked
- Federal operating authority (FMCSA)Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 9, 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 authorityThe captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 9, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
- State household-goods licenceWe searched State household-goods mover registry (checked Sep 2, 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 ($1,000,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($750,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 9, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
- Review ratings compared across sourcesBBB has only 4 reviews, too few to compare with Google's 1966; star ratings differ by 2.9 stars.
- Address and operating-location evidenceProperty 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 9, 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.

FMCSA regulatory snapshot
- Authority status
What does this mean?
Federal operating authority is category-specific: carrier, broker and freight-forwarder roles are separate.
