Is A Moving Company "Licensed"? |
It would be more accurate to say that a moving company is "registered." For example, United Van Lines has been issued a certificate of authority by the federal government to move household goods among any of the 50 states. As a motor carrier that held a certificate of authority on Dec. 31, 1995, United Van Lines is automatically registered with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) for five years after that date.
A local moving company ("agency") affiliated with a national van line such as United may also be registered with the DOT to move interstate shipments within certain geographical areas.
