Legal name, entity status, operating authority, fleet counts and safety rating come from the FMCSA motor carrier census and licensing files, and appear only where the identifier on the federal record matched the company record on this page. Where a row is absent for one company, this site holds no verified federal value for it.
A. Fazio Moving & Storage
A. Fazio Moving & Storage files from Ramsey, New Jersey as a single federal registrant with five power units and two drivers on the federal file, and no parent, franchise network, van-line relationship or sibling registration located in the records reviewed. The company prints its own federal identifiers on its website and they match the registration described here. The exact operating-authority classes carried on the registration could not be read from the sources reviewed, so no authority role is asserted in either direction. No federal safety rating is carried on the file; a compliance review date from the 1960s exists in the record but a review date is not a rating and is not published as one. The company describes its history only in relative terms, so no founding year is stored.
- Best for bergen county households wanting a small owner-run new jersey carrier rather than an agency chain.
- Interstate (48) coverage.
- The federal file shows five power units and two drivers, so capacity for large or tightly scheduled moves is limited.

- Best for large interstate and international moves.
- All 50 states coverage; founded 1928.
- Pricing skews higher than budget operators; binding estimates require an in-home survey.
