Interstate moving companies should be registered with the Department of Transportation (DOT) and carry a DOT number. In addition, all moving companies that provide interstate service must be licensed and insured.
Available company information available through the Department of Transportation includes the location of the company's headquarters, contact information, registration status and possibly a safety rating. A company with no safety rating does not necessarily mean that it is an unsafe mover; it simply does not have a record.
