In short
John & Sons Moving (USDOT 2049684) is a household-goods carrier registered for interstate work, its MC authority not active in this snapshot, based in Williamstown, NJ and registered since 2010. Its filing lists 1 truck and 1 driver. 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 John & Sons Moving licensed?
John & Sons Moving is registered with the FMCSA as an interstate carrier (USDOT 2049684), but it has no MC operating authority on record 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 16 years of registration (since 2010): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against John & Sons Moving, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 1 truck and 1 driver, and the registration dates from 2010.

| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $309 – $565 |

Before you book John & Sons Moving
- 1
Ask whose authority an interstate move would use
No MC number is on record in the September 24, 2026 snapshot. Check the live FMCSA record before booking John & Sons Moving for anything that crosses a state line.
- 2
Ask for Williamstown references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about John & Sons Moving's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Williamstown you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No John & Sons 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 $465 – $761
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Williamstown at $465 – $761 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $468 – $624. A surveyed, written estimate from John & Sons Moving far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
