In short

It has no FMCSA safety rating. It had no roadside inspection in the last 24 months, so there is no inspection record either way.
Is 5 Smart Movers Inc licensed?
5 Smart Movers Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 3887329) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within California, but a move across a state line would have to go through a carrier holding interstate authority, often a van line the company works for as an agent. Ask whose USDOT number would be on the bill of lading.
It has no safety rating on record in 4 years of registration (since 2022): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against 5 Smart Movers Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 1 truck and 1 driver, and the registration dates from 2022.

What a move with 5 Smart Movers Inc should cost
Not 5 Smart Movers Inc's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from San Francisco costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in San Francisco: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in San Francisco: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $44–$56 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $515 – $859.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $251 – $411 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $339 – $635 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $515 – $859 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $867 – $1,587 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,483 – $2,315 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,835 – $2,763 |
Hourly rates are scaled to California: hand movers there earn a median $21.50 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $44–$56 per mover per hour.

Before you book 5 Smart Movers Inc
- 1
Keep the move inside California
5 Smart Movers Inc is registered for moves within California. For a move to another state, ask which interstate carrier would haul it and look up that company's USDOT number as well.
- 2
Ask for San Francisco references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about 5 Smart Movers Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near San Francisco you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No 5 Smart Movers Inc driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $515 – $859
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in San Francisco at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $13,455 – $17,940. A surveyed, written estimate from 5 Smart Movers Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
