Fresh reports pulled from federal records by MoverAudit users. Run your own to see the company behind the quote.
Hostage-goods complaints by state, from the federal database: movers who reportedly demanded extra money before releasing belongings.
Every one of these complaints sits on a specific company's federal record. Find your mover in the directory and open its report before you book.
Every checked company gets an A-F grade from its federal record. Out of 74,949 movers checked so far:
A = clean federal record. C usually means a broker or a notable complaint history. D and F mean serious, repeated problems: read the report before you even take a quote.
companies in our database are brokers only: they legally cannot move your belongings themselves. Most advertise as if they were movers. The first line of every MoverAudit report tells you which one you are talking to.
registered "moving companies" have zero trucks on file with FMCSA. Some are honest brokers or paperwork shells; others are sales offices selling moves they can never perform. Fleet size is on every report.
companies checked so far have hostage-goods complaints: customers reported belongings withheld for extra payment. Federal fines for this start at $10,000 per day, yet it keeps happening. Check the Hostage Goods row before you book.
Moving fraud works because the timing is cruel: by the time you discover the problem, everything you own is on someone else's truck. Every step of the playbook is visible in public records before it happens.
Check Your MoverCheck the company here: broker or carrier, real fleet, complaint history. The lowball phone quote and the Zelle deposit are how the playbook starts.
Get a written binding estimate after a real survey of your home. A serious mover looks before it quotes. Never pay a large deposit by wire, Zelle or Venmo.
Do not pay cash on the sidewalk. With a binding estimate the mover must unload at the agreed price; non-binding is capped at 110% before unloading. Call FMCSA at 1-888-368-7238 and follow the hostage load guide.
