How Mod-Movers operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 2 interstate 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
- None of the 2 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 Mod-Movers runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Trucks
- One power unit on file, owned, a straight truck.
- Miles driven
- 10,000 miles reported for 2024.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods, plus general freight, metal and coils, motor vehicles, drive-away / towaway, logs and lumber, building materials, machinery and large objects, garbage and refuse, paper products and construction.

Before you book Mod-Movers
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC1294330
Mod-Movers can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC1294330. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask which truck and crew you get
Mod-Movers had 4 roadside inspections in 24 months and 0 vehicle out-of-service orders (0.0% against 19.0%). The record covers the company; the truck and crew on your day are what you are buying.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Mod-Movers 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 Monterey at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $13,451 – $17,934. A surveyed, written estimate from Mod-Movers far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
