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.
Ontrack Moving & Storage
Ontrack Moving & Storage files as a single limited liability company in the San Francisco Bay Area. Fleet figures on this profile come from the controlling federal file, which shows twenty power units and twenty-five drivers; smaller counts circulating in aggregator listings are stale mirrors and are not used. The California household goods permit the company publishes is a state licence identifier and is not recorded as a federal registration. No federal safety rating is on file, which is neither a positive nor a negative signal. The company publishes no founding year of its own, so none is stored or published here.
- Best for san francisco bay area households moving locally or across state lines with an in-house crew and warehouse storage.
- Interstate (48) coverage.
- The company publishes no founding year, so its trading history cannot be stated precisely, and third-party listings carry fleet figures that disagree with the federal file.
Atlas Van Lines
Atlas Van Lines books interstate household goods shipments under its own federal registration and handles them locally through affiliated agents. The agent assigned to your origin is a separate business from the van line, so ask which company's crew is scheduled before you sign.
- Best for corporate and government relocations.
- All 50 states coverage; founded 1948.
- The company performing your move is usually a separate agent business rather than the van line itself, so the terms, crew and equipment differ by market and are not set by Atlas.
