Is Simple Moving Inc licensed?
Simple Moving Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 3126394) 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 8 years of registration (since 2018): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Simple Moving Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 1 truck and 4 drivers, and the registration dates from 2018.
