Trust & methodology

Data sources

Our ratings and route pages combine public records, verified customer reviews, real move data, and hands-on editorial research. Here's where the information comes from.

Licensing & safety records

Public FMCSA / USDOT records — active interstate authority, carrier vs. broker status, and safety history.

Accreditation & complaints

Better Business Bureau accreditation, ratings, and complaint history.

Customer reviews

Verified customer feedback from reputable platforms including Google, ConsumerAffairs, and Trustpilot — weighted for recency.

Company information

Public company websites, service descriptions, and contact/licensing disclosures.

Real route data

Completed-move records used to build our city-to-city and corridor route pages — so coverage reflects lanes that actually happen, not invented service areas.

Editorial research

Hands-on review by our team to verify details, compare service fit, and flag low-quality or fake reviews.

Why this matters. Many mover-search experiences are either too broad or too broker-driven. Grounding our pages in verifiable records and real move data makes route research and mover comparison more specific, easier to interpret, and more useful for real people planning long-distance moves.
