Florida · mover research
MoveTrustHub organizes federal authority identifiers, Florida FDACS registrations, and directory headquarters so you can research a mover before you hire. This is a research system — not a paid lead marketplace, ranking, or “vetted” list.
These figures count registrations and directory profiles separately. They are not “all Florida movers,” and headquarters is not service area.
1,099
Active Florida IM registrations
Not “all Florida movers.” Inactive/expired rows are excluded. Most registrations are not public directory profiles.
Open matching research26
Active Florida moving-broker registrations
Small population. Unresolved/unlinked brokers are not counted as companies.
941
IM registrations linked to a company (verified)
A verified link is not a published profile and is not a safety rating.
483
Publishable directory profiles headquartered in Florida
Headquarters is not proof of Florida operating authority. Address-only HQ is not FDACS registration.

Official FDACS contact observations
Not a complete phone book. Missing contact is null, never invented.
Authority extract as of 2026-08-21. Not a live FDACS session.
Intelligence aggregation mth-fl-state-intel-v1 · generated 2026-08-26 22:20 UTC. Regenerating the payload updates these figures without changing page copy.
USDOT, MC, Florida registration, and the legal business name stay distinct unless a verified link exists. A company can hold more than one authority.
Inspection volume is not quality. Out-of-service events are not automatically a “bad mover” score. This page does not publish Florida inspection, crash, or safety-rating censuses because the live directory safety-rating field is Not Rated and no inspection event table is attributed to this population.
Look up a specific USDOT on Verify DOT.
A complaint is not a violation. A complaint is not a final finding. An investigation is not enforcement. A notice is not a final order. FDACS complaint and enforcement extracts are not loaded, so this page does not display complaint counts.
Official contact observations currently stored: 3,875. Secondary phones and emails are kept as separate observations and do not overwrite a primary company contact.
Figures below use headquartered in / business address in as stored. Operating geography is not inferred from headquarters.

Official sourceFMCSA directory identity & authority flags
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
USDOT / MC identifiers, allowed-to-operate / authority_active flags, and safety-rating field on directory companies.

Official sourceFDOT
Florida Department of Transportation
No mover-specific bulk dataset is currently contributing to this page.
Coverage: n/a. USDOT existence is not a reason to ingest unrelated trucking data. FDOT is listed for transparency.
Official sourceA move that crosses a state line is interstate and is regulated federally (USDOT / MC authority). A move that stays entirely inside Florida is intrastate and may require a Florida FDACS mover registration. Headquarters in Florida does not, by itself, prove either authority.
ContinueA carrier operates trucks and is responsible for the shipment. A broker arranges transportation and does not haul the goods. Some companies hold both. Research the entity that will actually move your household goods, not only the brand on the estimate.
ContinueUSDOT identifies the motor-carrier entity. MC (docket) identifies operating authority. They are related but not interchangeable. A Florida registration number is a third identifier. Do not treat a numeric fragment as unique.
ContinueIntrastate household-goods movers in Florida register with FDACS. Registration status is a source field. Expired, inactive, or unresolved rows are not treated as current authority. Out-of-state companies can be registered to operate in Florida without being headquartered here.
Compare the written estimate, the mover named on it, and the authority identifiers. Binding vs non-binding estimates, extra fees, and who will actually perform the work should be in writing before a deposit.
ContinueLarge up-front cash demands, last-minute truck swaps, and pressure to sign blank documents are research red flags — not automatic proof of fraud. Verify the named carrier’s authority and keep the paper trail.
ContinueA complaint is a raw observation, not a finding. An investigation is not enforcement. A notice is not a final order. When this research graph has final dispositions, they are labeled separately. Counts of complaints are not guilt.
