Movers Licensing Information

In general, household goods moving companies are regulated by state or federal authorities.

States regulate moves that take place within the state. Federal laws and license apply when move's destination is in another state than origin.

At MoversExposed.com, before admitting any new movers to our network, we check their license information and make sure it's valid and up to date to ensure you receive quotes from licensed moving companies only.
