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.
Reile's Transfer & Delivery
Reile's Transfer & Delivery files from Fargo, North Dakota as a single federal registrant with fifteen power units and fifteen drivers on the federal file, and no parent, franchise network, van-line relationship or related registration was located in the records reviewed. The company publishes household moving alongside freight, transload and warehousing services; those are business lines and this profile does not convert them into federal authority classes. The exact operating-authority classes on the registration were not readable in the sources reviewed, so none is asserted in either direction. The federal file carries a Satisfactory safety rating dated 7 January 2000, which is a dated snapshot and not a current certification. The company states first-party that it has been in business since 1954 and is family owned and operated.
- Best for fargo-moorhead households and businesses wanting a family-owned carrier that also runs warehousing.
- Interstate (48) coverage; founded 1954.
- The business is split across household moving, freight and warehousing, so household crews are a share of a wider operation rather than its whole focus.
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.
