  4. PROBLEM
    Another business, “Stateside Movers Spokane WA”, shares the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (509) 960-6405 (also printed on its site)

    A web page for “Stateside Movers Spokane WA” shows the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (509) 960-6405 (also printed on its site). Excerpt: “Stateside Movers · Spokane, WA 99202 · 104 S Freya St Suite 207 Yellow Flag Building · (509) 960-6405 · spokanecountymovers.com · Facebook profile.”

    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.

  7. CAUTION
    Website and federal records list different addresses

    Website (observed 2026-10-09T04:55:18.040Z): 114 W. Pacific Ave, Suite 201, Spokane, WA 99201. FMCSA physical address (observed 2026-10-19T06:36:07.268Z): 6491 E SELTICE WAY, POST FALLS, ID 83854. FMCSA mailing address: 6491 E SELTICE WAY, POST FALLS, ID 83854-8392.

    Different branches, a relocation, or different reporting dates may explain the difference. Confirm the current operating office and the location handling your move.

    Source: company website · federal address record · as of Oct 19, 2026

  8. COULD NOT VERIFY
    No 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 3867531.

    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.

  9. COULD NOT VERIFY
    No matching listing found in our Yelp, Trustpilot searches

    Our name-and-city searches on Yelp, Trustpilot did not identify a matching listing; Google, BBB could not be read. This is a limitation of this search, not proof that the company has no reviews or public track record.

  10. NOTE
    Self-declared: “#1”

    “#1 Movers in Spokane”. This is the company's own marketing statement; this wording alone does not establish an independent ranking.

    Source: company website · as of Oct 9, 2026

  11. ON RECORD
    Washington Secretary of State Corporations and Charities Filing System could not be checked in this report

    The register could not be read. Business registration is not a mover licence. No entity record could be opened or confirmed because the official register's search request was blocked by its Cloudflare Turnstile security challenge. The legal names and DBA names were entered separately in the public Corporation Search, using the register's Contains option where applicable, but no returned result set could be read. Consequently, entity IDs, types, statuses, dates, registered agents, officers, addresses, record URLs, and source dates could not be confirmed. The register search was blocked: The official register was protected by a Cloudflare Turnstile CAPTCHA/security challenge. The public Corporation Search form could be loaded and submitted, but the challenge prevented the search request/results from being returned; the displayed Business Search Results page showed only the default empty 'Page 0 of 0' state.

  12. ON RECORD
    1 other business listed at this street address

    “Hester Lowboy Llc” (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.

    Source: Hester Lowboy Llc · as of Oct 9, 2026

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

    The permitted page identifies Spokane County Movers at 12904 E Nora Ave, Spokane Valley, with phone (509)960-6405, a Yelp URL, and a self-description saying it was founded in 2018, but it does not establish a relationship with Best of Spokane Moving Company.

    The permitted source does not verify Best of Spokane Moving Company's identity, any shared people, ownership, state registration, FMCSA record, separate website, succession or rebranding, or the asserted shared phone number; it also contains no consumer statements about succession or rebranding and prints no source date.

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 13, 2026MEDIUMNew operating authority on record: MC1414914 Motor Carrier of 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.

4+ 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

3 passed2 caution
  • Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
    Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 19, 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 19, 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 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 ($750,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($750,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 19, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
  • No cancelled insurance filings in the records read; later history not read
    No cancelled or revoked filings were identified in the records reviewed, which do not cover this company’s full filing history. 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.
  • Address and operating-location evidence
    Website and federal records list different addresses. See the dated sources and address roles below; these signals alone do not establish improper operation.

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.

Serious concerns and company connections

Operating authority dockets
ActiveMC1414914Motor Carrier of 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 Sep 2, 2026.

We searched State household-goods mover registry on Sep 2, 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

Washington Secretary of State Corporations and Charities Filing System · checked Oct 9, 2026. A business-entity registration is separate from federal moving authority and from a state mover licence.

Washington Secretary of State Corporations and Charities Filing System was not available when checked on Oct 9, 2026. Registration status is unverified.
  • Limitation: Business registration is not a mover licence.
  • Limitation: No entity record could be opened or confirmed because the official register's search request was blocked by its Cloudflare Turnstile security challenge.
  • Limitation: The legal names and DBA names were entered separately in the public Corporation Search, using the register's Contains option where applicable, but no returned result set could be read.
