How Black Belt Movers operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 4 interstate beyond 100 air miles; 10 intrastate within 100 air miles. Read plainly, it runs both: 4 on longer runs and 10 close to home.
- Commercial driver's licences
- None of the 14 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 Black Belt Movers runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Trucks
- 9 power units on file (8 owned and 1 term-leased), all straight trucks.
- Miles driven
- 4,000 miles reported for 2021, about 444 per truck.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods only.

Before you book Black Belt Movers
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC1096316
Black Belt Movers can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC1096316. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask for Lincoln references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Black Belt Movers's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Lincoln you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Black Belt Movers 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
Ask whose truck arrives
1 of the 9 power units Black Belt Movers files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 3404204, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $505 – $817
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Lincoln at $505 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $6,215 – $8,286. A surveyed, written estimate from Black Belt Movers far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
