Showing 30 of 48. Search any mover by name or DOT number on FMCSA’s SAFER site.
What to check before you hire
Check the US DOT and MC numbers
Both should appear on the estimate. Look them up on FMCSA's SAFER site: the authority must be active for household goods.
Get an in-person or video survey
Estimates given over the phone without seeing your belongings are often low and grow on moving day.
Ask for a binding estimate
A binding or binding-not-to-exceed estimate caps what you pay. With a non-binding estimate the mover can collect up to 110% of it at delivery and bill the rest later.
Read 'Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move'
Interstate movers must give you this FMCSA booklet before the move.
Avoid large deposits
Reputable movers rarely ask for a big payment before they load your goods.
Choose your valuation coverage
Basic coverage pays only 60 cents per pound per item. Full-value protection costs more but covers replacement.
Questions people ask
How many long-distance movers are based in Oakland?
3 movers hold active interstate household-goods authority from the US Department of Transportation with an address in Oakland, and another 45 are based elsewhere in the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA area (FMCSA, 2026-10-12).
How do I check a mover's license?
Ask for the mover's US DOT number and look it up on FMCSA's SAFER system. For a move across state lines the company needs active household-goods authority (an MC number), and FMCSA should list its insurance on file. Each mover on this page links to its FMCSA record.
What insurance do interstate movers need?
Household-goods carriers must keep liability insurance on file with FMCSA, usually at least $750,000 for trucks over 10,000 pounds, plus cargo insurance. Of the movers listed here, 30 of 30 have at least the required liability coverage on file.
Which Oakland movers have the largest fleets?
By trucks registered with FMCSA: Waters Moving & Storage Inc (35 trucks), Crown Worldwide Moving And Storage LLC (25 trucks), Nor-Cal Moving Services (23 trucks). Fleet size isn't a quality rating, but larger fleets can usually take a move on shorter notice.
Sources and method
Movers listed hold active interstate household-goods authority and are active interstate carriers in FMCSA's census. A mover is placed in a city by its physical address ZIP code; a ZIP code shared by two cities counts toward the one where most of its residents live. Distances run from the city centre to the centre of the mover's ZIP code (Census Gazetteer).
