Is The Professionals Moving Specialists Inc licensed?
The Professionals Moving Specialists Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 3383907) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within Illinois, 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 6 years of registration (since 2020): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against The Professionals Moving Specialists Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 34 trucks and 15 drivers, and the registration dates from 2020.
