Is Carey Moving & Storage Inc licensed?
Carey Moving & Storage Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 3389766) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within South Carolina, 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 6 years of registration (since 2020): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Carey Moving & Storage Inc, and not a mark for it.

Before you book Carey Moving & Storage Inc
- 1
Keep the move inside South Carolina
Carey Moving & Storage Inc is registered for moves within South Carolina. 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 Spartanburg references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Carey Moving & Storage Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Spartanburg you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Carey Moving & Storage Inc files 3 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
Judge the estimate against $445 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Spartanburg at $445 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $3,078 – $4,104. A surveyed, written estimate from Carey Moving & Storage Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
