In short
Ameritex Movers Inc (USDOT 1951984) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within Texas, based in Houston, TX and registered since 2009. Its filing lists 8 trucks and 12 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 Ameritex Movers Inc licensed?
Ameritex Movers Inc is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 1951984) as an intrastate carrier: it may move you within Texas, 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 17 years of registration (since 2009): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Ameritex Movers Inc, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 8 trucks and 12 drivers, and the registration dates from 2009.

How Ameritex Movers Inc operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 12 intrastate within 100 air miles. Read plainly, every driver it files works within 100 miles, the profile of a local mover.

- 8 power units on file (8 owned), all straight trucks, plus 2 trailers.
- Miles driven
- 365,000 miles reported for 2024, about 45,625 per truck.

What a move with Ameritex Movers Inc should cost
Not Ameritex Movers Inc's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Houston costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Houston: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Houston: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $37–$47 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $445 – $733.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $223 – $357 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $297 – $545 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $445 – $733 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $741 – $1,344 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,259 – $1,955 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,555 – $2,331 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Texas: hand movers there earn a median $18.05 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $37–$47 per mover per hour.

Before you book Ameritex Movers Inc
- 1
Keep the move inside Texas
Ameritex Movers Inc is registered for moves within Texas. 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 Houston references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Ameritex Movers Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Houston you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Ameritex Movers Inc 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 $445 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Houston at $445 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $7,511 – $10,014. A surveyed, written estimate from Ameritex Movers Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
