How First Class Moving Service operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 1 interstate beyond 100 air miles. Read plainly, every driver it files works beyond 100 miles, the profile of a long-distance operation.
- Commercial driver's licences
- Its one driver does not hold a CDL. A CDL is required to drive a truck rated over 26,000 lb, so on its own filing First Class Moving Service runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Trucks
- One power unit on file, owned, a straight truck.
- Miles driven
- 100,000 miles reported for 2024.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods, plus general freight and other cargo.

A two-bedroom move in Durham: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $38–$47 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $455 – $733.

Before you book First Class Moving Service
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC11778
First Class Moving Service can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC11778. 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 about the 2 out-of-service orders
2 of First Class Moving Service's 3 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (66.7%, 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 First Class Moving Service 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 $455 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Durham at $455 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $2,196 – $2,928. A surveyed, written estimate from First Class Moving Service far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
