In short
Sunshine Movers Inc (USDOT 1646986) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within Florida, based in Palm Harbor, FL and registered since 2007. 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 Sunshine Movers Inc licensed?
Sunshine Movers Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 1646986) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within Florida, 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 19 years of registration (since 2007): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Sunshine Movers Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 2 trucks and 2 drivers, and the registration dates from 2007.

What a move with Sunshine Movers Inc should cost
Not Sunshine Movers Inc's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Palm Harbor costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Palm Harbor: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Palm Harbor: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $38–$47 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $455 – $733.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $227 – $357 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $303 – $545 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $455 – $733 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $759 – $1,344 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,291 – $1,955 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,595 – $2,331 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Florida: hand movers there earn a median $18.35 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $38–$47 per mover per hour.

Before you book Sunshine Movers Inc
- 1
Keep the move inside Florida
Sunshine Movers Inc is registered for moves within Florida. 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 Palm Harbor references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Sunshine Movers Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Palm Harbor you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Sunshine Movers 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 $455 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Palm Harbor at $455 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $5,256 – $7,008. A surveyed, written estimate from Sunshine Movers Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
