In short
Guardian Relocation of Ohio (USDOT 595681) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within Ohio, based in Columbus, OH and registered since 1995. Its filing lists 4 trucks and 11 drivers. 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 Guardian Relocation of Ohio licensed?
Guardian Relocation of Ohio is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 595681) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within Ohio, 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 31 years of registration (since 1995): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Guardian Relocation of Ohio, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 4 trucks and 11 drivers, and the registration dates from 1995.

What a move with Guardian Relocation of Ohio should cost
Not Guardian Relocation of Ohio's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Columbus costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Columbus: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Columbus: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $39–$49 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $465 – $761.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $231 – $369 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $309 – $565 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $465 – $761 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $777 – $1,398 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,323 – $2,035 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,635 – $2,427 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Ohio: hand movers there earn a median $18.97 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $39–$49 per mover per hour.

Before you book Guardian Relocation of Ohio
- 1
Keep the move inside Ohio
Guardian Relocation of Ohio is registered for moves within Ohio. 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 for Columbus references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Guardian Relocation of Ohio's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Columbus you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Guardian Relocation of Ohio files 2 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
1 of the 4 power units Guardian Relocation of Ohio files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 595681, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $465 – $761
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Columbus at $465 – $761 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $2,480 – $3,306. A surveyed, written estimate from Guardian Relocation of Ohio far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
