In short
Laaks Moving Services (USDOT 2995987) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within California, based in Irvine, CA and registered since 2017. Its filing lists 1 truck and 1 driver. 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 Laaks Moving Services licensed?
Laaks Moving Services is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 2995987) 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 9 years of registration (since 2017): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Laaks Moving Services, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 1 truck and 1 driver, and the registration dates from 2017.

Roadside inspections, last 24 months

How Laaks Moving Services operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 1 intrastate beyond 100 air miles. Read plainly, every driver it files works beyond 100 miles, the profile of a long-distance operation.
- Commercial driver's licences
- Its one driver does not hold a CDL. A CDL is required to drive a truck rated over 26,000 lb, so on its own filing Laaks Moving Services runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Trucks
- One power unit on file, owned, a straight truck.
- Miles driven
- 35,000 miles reported for 2017.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods, plus general freight and other cargo.

What a move with Laaks Moving Services should cost
Not Laaks Moving Services's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Irvine costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Irvine: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Irvine: 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 Laaks Moving Services
- 1
Keep the move inside California
Laaks Moving Services 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 Irvine references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Laaks Moving Services's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Irvine you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Laaks Moving Services 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 Irvine at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $12,749 – $16,998. A surveyed, written estimate from Laaks Moving Services far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
