Check the company identity

For an interstate move, use FMCSA’s official resources to check the mover’s registration and complaint history. Confirm whether you are dealing with the carrier or a broker.

Read before you sign

Be cautious about blank paperwork, missing written estimates, demands for substantial cash payments and vague explanations of moving protection. Ask for written clarification before proceeding.

Keep a record

Save estimates, signed documents, payment records and communications. For questions about interstate moving rights or complaints, use the official FMCSA resources linked below. Rules and processes for moves within one state can differ.
