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.
Bohren's Moving & Storage
Bohrens Moving and Storage Inc files from Robbinsville, New Jersey, active on the federal census with 19 power units and 23 drivers, and carries docket MC-4368 on the registration. The federal filing records the trade names Bohrens Logistics and Bohrens Fine Art Transportation, both of which sit on this one registration rather than on separate federal companies. The operating-authority presentation read for this registration shows motor carrier of household goods and motor carrier of property authority; the detailed Licensing and Insurance page was unavailable at the time of reading, so nothing further is stated about authority and no broker authority is inferred. No federal safety rating is on file, which is neither a positive nor a negative signal. The company states first-party that it is an agent of United Van Lines; United Van Lines is a separate registrant and any United corporate identifier is recorded as a van-line identifier rather than stored on this record. The company states first-party that it was founded in 1924.
- Best for central new jersey households and fine-art or high-value shipments handled by a long-established agency with its own crews.
- Interstate (48) coverage; founded 1924.
- The company does not publish its USDOT number on its own site, so the federal record here was joined by legal name, filed address and telephone rather than by a number the company prints itself.
Allied Van Lines
Allied Van Lines operates one of the largest North American moving networks through agent-affiliates, and offers interstate and international household-goods moving. Full value protection is offered as the paid alternative to the default released value liability, as required of interstate carriers.
- 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.
