In short

It has no FMCSA safety rating. It had 1 roadside inspection in the last 24 months, 1 of 1 vehicle inspections ending with a truck put out of service.
Is SC Moving licensed?
SC Moving is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 2324405) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within Maine, 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 14 years of registration (since 2012): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against SC Moving, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 3 trucks and 2 drivers, and the registration dates from 2012.

Roadside inspections, last 24 months
SC Moving had 1 roadside inspection in the last 24 months. 1 of its 1 vehicle inspections put a truck out of service (100.0%), above the 19.0% across all listed movers; 0 of 1 driver inspections took a driver off the road (0.0%, against 13.0%). With fewer than five inspections, a single result moves these rates by 20 points or more, so read them as a handful of events, not a pattern.

How SC Moving operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 1 intrastate beyond 100 air miles; 1 intrastate within 100 air miles. Read plainly, it runs both: 1 on longer runs and 1 close to home.
- 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 SC Moving runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Trucks
- 3 power units on file (3 owned), all straight trucks, plus 1 trailer.
- Miles driven
- 10,000 miles reported for 2016, about 3,333 per truck.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods, plus general freight, metal and coils, logs and lumber, building materials, machinery and large objects, paper products and construction.

Before you book SC Moving
- 1
Keep the move inside Maine
SC Moving is registered for moves within Maine. 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 about the 1 out-of-service order
1 of SC Moving's 1 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (100.0%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No SC Moving 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 $495 – $817
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in South Portland at $495 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $1,454 – $1,938. A surveyed, written estimate from SC Moving far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
