Is Metcalf Moving and Storage licensed?
Metcalf Moving and Storage is registered with the FMCSA as an interstate carrier (USDOT 1127088), but its MC authority (MC364862) is not active in this snapshot. A mover needs active MC authority to carry household goods across a state line for hire, so ask whose USDOT and MC numbers will be on the bill of lading before an interstate booking.
It has no safety rating on record in 23 years of registration (since 2003): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Metcalf Moving and Storage, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 21 trucks and 18 drivers, and the registration dates from 2003.

Before you book Metcalf Moving and Storage
- 1
Ask whose authority an interstate move would use
MC364862 shows as inactive in the September 24, 2026 snapshot. Check the live FMCSA record before booking Metcalf Moving and Storage for anything that crosses a state line.
- 2
Ask about the 1 out-of-service order
1 of Metcalf Moving and Storage'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
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Metcalf Moving and Storage files 14 tractors. If a full rig cannot reach your door, the move needs a shuttle truck, which is a separate line on the bill; ask before the estimate is written.
- 4
Ask whose truck arrives
7 of the 21 power units Metcalf Moving and Storage files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 1127088, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $535 – $873
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Saint Paul at $535 – $873 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $5,274 – $7,032. A surveyed, written estimate from Metcalf Moving and Storage far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
