SERIOUS
Official record of an adverse agency or court action against this company (“Spokane Movers”)
“Docket TV-100322 involves a penalty assessment issued by the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (Commission) against Gerald Jahn d/b/a Spokane Movers (Spokane Movers) for alleged violations of the Commission’s statutes and rules governing household goods movers.” The record is quoted as filed; it names this company.
The record names “Spokane Movers”, which matches this company’s name. Its procedural posture (assessment, notice, order) is as quoted. The cited records do not establish that [name withheld] was the Gerald Jahn respondent, was personally charged or found liable, or that he participated in the 2010 violations; no official DOJ, DOT OIG, FMCSA, or court action against [name withheld] personally was verified in the sources read.
An adverse action recorded under this company’s own name bears directly on the business you would be contracting with.
Ask the company about this record and read the official docket yourself before booking.
Another business, “Long-Distance Moving (2 Movers & Truck) in ...”, shares the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (509) 455-8211 (also printed on its site)
A web page for “Long-Distance Moving (2 Movers & Truck) in ...” shows the phone number this company’s website actually dials, (509) 455-8211 (also printed on its site) and the phone number printed on this company’s website, (877) 455-8211. Excerpt: “They state a Spokane address at 201 East Sprague Avenue, Spokane, WA 99202, and give a local number (509) 455-8211 and a toll-free number 1 (877) 455-8211.”
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 “Long-Distance Moving (2 Movers & Truck) in ...” and make sure the name on your contract is the company you expect.
Follow-up on a related business: partly established
The supplied FlashCrafter page presents Spokane Movers as the profiled business and reports its claimed Spokane address and two phone numbers, but it does not establish any corporate, ownership, personnel, succession, or rebranding relationship beyond that profile.
No state-register or FMCSA filing, shared person, official ownership record, consumer statement about succession or rebranding, or independently verified website relationship appears on the permitted page; the page expressly says its prices, services, and contact details are not verified.
Ask the company what its relationship is to the other business before you book.
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. I could not obtain or confirm any entity record from the official register. Because the system verification blocked the search response, I could not complete separate searches for SPOKANE MOVERS INC, SPOKANE MOVERS, and JERRYS HAULING SERVICE (including suffixless variants), nor determine whether any matching entities exist. No entity detail page, entity ID, status, formation date, registered agent, officers, address, or record as-of date could be read or confirmed. The register search was blocked: The official register's Corporation Search was blocked by its Cloudflare Turnstile/system verification. After submitting a business-name search, the register returned the message "System verification in progress, please wait." and did not return readable search results.

“UTC Company Details” (state 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.
Every exposed BBB review and complaint record was read: 0 reviews, 0 public complaints
BBB exposes no reviews. BBB reports 0 complaints; no public complaint narratives were available to read. Complete retrieval of the exposed record is not proof the reviews are authentic or that nothing was removed.
No BBB complaints in the last 3 years. Source observations: accreditation 2026-10-09T04:55:15.455Z; complaint count 2026-10-09T04:55:15.455Z; rating and review count 2026-10-09T04:55:15.455Z.
A BBB letter grade is BBB's own assessment; it is not an endorsement, a licence check or a clearance of the company.
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.
25+ 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
3 passed1 caution
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 authority
The 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 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 9, 2026; confirm current coverage before booking.
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 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.

TrucksWhat does this mean?FMCSA calls these "power units", meaning trucks, tractors, and other registered moving vehicles the carrier owns or leases.
5
DriversWhat does this mean?Drivers the carrier has registered with FMCSA. This is the official number; some carriers operate with more drivers than registered.

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
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.

How current is this report?
Report assembled Oct 9, 2026. First published Oct 12, 2026. This report pulls from 368 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.
