PROBLEM
Another business, “Bureau of Household Goods and Services”, shares the phone number printed on this company’s website, (916) 999-2041
A web page for “Bureau of Household Goods and Services” shows the phone number printed on this company’s website, (916) 999-2041; the same business appears on 1 other page. Excerpt: “... (916) 999-2041 Subscribe to Our Emails · DCA · Conditions of use(external link) · Privacy policy(external link) · Accessibility · Website accessibility ...”
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.
Before booking: Ask the company what its relationship is to “Bureau of Household Goods and Services” and make sure the name on your contract is the company you expect.
Website and federal records list different addresses
Website (observed 2026-10-09T05:56:23.578Z): 2 S Centinela Ave, Los Angeles, California 90066. FMCSA physical address (observed 2026-10-13T06:34:36.068Z): 5509 1 2 S CENTINELA AVENUE, LOS ANGELES, CA 90066. FMCSA mailing address: 5509 1 2 S CENTINELA AVENUE, LOS ANGELES, CA 90066.
Different branches, a relocation, or different reporting dates may explain the difference. Confirm the current operating office and the location handling your move.
California Secretary of State bizfile Online 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 POPEYE MOVING AND STORAGE LLC. No separate searches could be submitted for the supplied partial/name variants or DBA names because the official register was blocked before the search interface loaded. No result list, record pages, entity IDs, statuses, dates, agents, officers, addresses, or record as-of dates could be read; therefore no matching entity can be confirmed or ruled out. Pagination and result completeness could not be assessed because the official results interface never rendered. The register search was blocked: The official California Secretary of State bizfile Online business-search page (https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/search/business) was blocked by an Incapsula security challenge before the JavaScript search interface rendered. The page returned an Incapsula incident page (incident ID 1024000100764757890-432407317334459054), so no official-register query could be submitted and no results could be re

Changes observed in this company's federal and state records during the last 90 days. Each entry shows when the change was observed.
Oct 1, 2026MEDIUMNew operating authority on record: MC498816 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.
26+ 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

What we checked
3 passed1 caution1 failed
Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
Active federal authority: carrier. Observed Oct 13, 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 13, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
State household-goods licence
Not checked for this profile.
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 13, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
Cancelled or revoked insurance filings on record
10 cancelled or revoked insurance filings on record with FMCSA. Review the filing dates and reasons. This history does not by itself mean the company is currently uninsured. One cancellation left no filing of the same coverage in effect on the cancellation date (BIPD cancelled 2015-11-22, next filing effective 2017-12-01). For 9 of them FMCSA records a filing of the same coverage type in effect on the cancellation date. FMCSA’s authority history also records 3 involuntary revocation actions (served 2014-10-27, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2014-11-20; served 2014-09-12, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2014-10-14; served 2004-10-25, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2004-11-24), 2 revocation or suspension orders (INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2015-10-26, effective 2015-11-30; INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2006-10-25, effective 2006-11-27), 3 authority actions with a revocation, suspension or out-of-service disposition (REINSTATED served 2008-10-21, disposition REVOKED decided 2015-11-30; GRANTED served 2006-03-31, disposition REVOKED decided 2006-11-27; GRANTED served 2004-10-12, disposition REVOKED decided 2006-11-27) and 2 reinstatements (served 2018-01-26, 2008-10-21). 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.

Report assembled Oct 13, 2026. First published Oct 12, 2026. This report pulls from 162 pieces of information across federal, state, review, and identity sources. Check each source's date for when its information was observed.
NMB does not invent facts. When a section reads "—" or "this check has not run yet," that means we have not been able to verify the information from a primary source. It does not mean the answer is good or bad.
