In short
A and P Moving Inc (USDOT 4475931) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within California, based in Novato, CA and registered since 2025. Its filing lists 7 trucks and 8 drivers. 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 A and P Moving Inc licensed?
A and P Moving Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 4475931) 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 1 year of registration (since 2025): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against A and P Moving Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 7 trucks and 8 drivers, and the registration dates from 2025.

How A and P Moving Inc operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 4 intrastate beyond 100 air miles; 4 intrastate within 100 air miles. Read plainly, it runs both: 4 on longer runs and 4 close to home.
- Commercial driver's licences
- None of the 8 drivers on its latest filing holds a CDL. A CDL is required to drive a truck rated over 26,000 lb, so on its own filing A and P Moving Inc runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Trucks
- 7 power units on file (7 owned), all straight trucks.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods, plus other cargo.

Local moves in Novato: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Novato: 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 |

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 A and P Moving Inc
- 1
Keep the move inside California
A and P Moving 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 Novato references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about A and P Moving Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Novato you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No A and P Moving 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 Novato at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $13,451 – $17,934. A surveyed, written estimate from A and P Moving Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
