PROBLEM
Another business, “Kenova International Moving Company”, shares the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (800) 444-6430 (also printed on its site)

The same phone number listed for two business names is a connection worth understanding before you book.

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 261884.
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): "PXI (U.S. DOT# 261884) 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 (MC176235 Broker of Property (Except Household Goods) — Inactive; MC176235 Motor Carrier of Household Goods — Active; MC176235 Broker of Household Goods — Active; MC176235 Motor Carrier of Property (Except Household Goods) — Active).
Check the dated FMCSA records before relying on this authority category.
Follow-up on a related business: partly established
The permitted page identifies the international-moving operator as Walker Transfer-Powell, LLC, displays 800-444-6430, and lists Kenova, WV and a Grand Rapids, MI address while linking Grand Rapids to powellmoving.com, but it does not establish that the operator is Powell Relocation Group or document shared ownership, people, filings, succession, or rebranding.
No state-register record, FMCSA record, shared-person evidence, dated official filing, or consumer statement about succession or rebranding could be verified from the only permitted source; the page does not name ‘Powell Relocation Group’ and has no printed full posting date.
Ask the company what its relationship is to the other business before you book.
Follow-up on a related business: partly established
The permitted page verifies that PXI, LLC is listed at 4937 Starr St SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49546-7934, with toll-free number 800-444-6430, but it does not establish a relationship with Powell Relocation Group.
No state-register or FMCSA filing, shared person, website link, succession or rebranding statement, or consumer statement about Powell Relocation Group appears on the permitted page, so those points remain unverified; the page also prints no source date.
Ask the company what its relationship is to the other business before you book.

ON RECORD

“PXI LLC” (federal record). 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.

The research provider failed: Refusal: Error: Agent reached max credits. Nothing was established.

What kind of company is this?
Broker + Carrier
The captured federal record lists broker and carrier roles. Registration alone does not establish current authority. Confirm in writing which company 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.

What we checked
4 passed2 caution1 failed
Federal operating authority (FMCSA)
Active federal authority: carrier and broker. 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
The captured FMCSA record reports interstate household-goods carrier authority. Observed Oct 14, 2026. Confirm the actual operating carrier and any separate operating restrictions for your move.
Federal broker authority
The captured record reports active broker authority: arranging transportation, not hauling goods as the carrier. Observed Oct 14, 2026.
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 BIPD insurance filing (dated record)
On-file BIPD amount ($1,000,000) met or exceeded the recorded requirement ($1,000,000). Cargo coverage is a separate question. As observed Oct 14, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
Cancelled or revoked insurance filings on record
7 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. 3 cancellations left no filing of the same coverage in effect on the cancellation date (SURETY cancelled 2013-10-01, no later filing of that coverage on record through 2026-05-14; SURETY cancelled 2000-10-14, next filing effective 2004-06-28; SURETY cancelled 1995-08-16, next filing effective 1995-08-17). For 2 of them FMCSA records a filing of the same coverage type in effect on the cancellation date. For 2 of them, whether coverage continued cannot be judged from the files: FMCSA’s own later record of the same filing is dated after the cancellation (CARGO cancelled 2023-01-20, later record dated 2023-10-01; CARGO cancelled 2001-08-30, later record dated 2003-04-10). FMCSA’s files hold 41 filing records for these 32 filings; 6 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 5 involuntary revocation actions (served 2026-03-30, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2026-04-10; served 2023-05-22, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2023-05-26; served 2022-12-27, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2022-12-29; served 2007-08-06, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION decided 2007-08-15; served 1992-04-01, disposition DISCONTINUED REVOCATION), 2 revocation or suspension orders (INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2003-05-06, effective 2003-04-10; INVOLUNTARY REVOCATION, served 2000-11-09, effective 2000-10-14), 4 authority actions with a revocation, suspension or out-of-service disposition (GRANTED served 1990-10-17, disposition REVOKED decided 2000-12-29; GRANTED served 1990-10-01, disposition REVOKED decided 2003-06-23; GRANTED served 1987-05-05, disposition REVOKED decided 2003-06-23; GRANTED served 1986-06-10, disposition REVOKED decided 2003-06-23) and 1 reinstatement (served 2003-09-09). 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
Property use and a customer-accessible operating facility have not been established. A registered address, mailing address and local office can serve different purposes.
Operates under a single brand name
Website markets the company under 4 different city-specific brand names (Powell Moving & Storage, Inc., Powell Moving…). This is sometimes a multi-brand SEO strategy.
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 statusWhat 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.
Interstate HHG carrier authorityWhat 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.
TrucksWhat does this mean?FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases.
