In short
Puma Moving Inc (USDOT 2694165) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within California, based in South San, CA and registered since 2015. Its filing lists 2 trucks and 2 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 Puma Moving Inc licensed?
Puma Moving Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 2694165) 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 11 years of registration (since 2015): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Puma Moving Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 2 trucks and 2 drivers, and the registration dates from 2015.

Before you book Puma Moving Inc
- 1
Keep the move inside California
Puma 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 South San references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Puma Moving Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near South San you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Puma 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 South San at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $13,478 – $17,970. A surveyed, written estimate from Puma Moving Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
