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.

Hall Lane Moving & Storage

The registrant behind the brand is Original Hall-Lane Moving and Storage at 67 Mall Drive in Commack, New York, carrying the DBA the company trades under, with 10 power units, 16 drivers and a household goods cargo entry, and household goods authority on the licensing record. The company marked 75 years in 2025 and dates its business to 1950. The number displayed alongside its northAmerican branding identifies North American Van Lines, not Hall Lane, and is recorded here as a van-line relationship rather than as the company's own registration, so a reader comparing numbers is looking at the right entity.

How do I check complaints against Hall Lane Moving & Storage or Allied Van Lines?
