In short
Rick's Moving LLC (USDOT 1082164) is a household-goods carrier licensed for moves within Texas, based in McAllen, TX and registered since 2002. Its filing lists 1 truck and 2 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 Rick's Moving LLC licensed?
Rick's Moving LLC is registered with the FMCSA (USDOT 1082164) 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 24 years of registration (since 2002): a rating comes only from an FMCSA compliance review, and none is on file. That is not a mark against Rick's Moving LLC, and not a mark for it.
The filing reports 1 truck and 2 drivers, and the registration dates from 2002.

A two-bedroom move in McAllen: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $37–$47 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $445 – $733.

|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $223 – $357 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $297 – $545 |

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 Rick's Moving LLC
- 1
Keep the move inside Texas
Rick's Moving LLC 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 McAllen references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Rick's Moving LLC's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near McAllen you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Judge the estimate against $445 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in McAllen at $445 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $8,969 – $11,958. A surveyed, written estimate from Rick's Moving LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
