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.

Solomon & Sons Relocation Services

Solomon and Sons Relocation Service Inc files from 3524 SW 30th Avenue in Dania Beach, Florida, active on the federal census with 17 power units, 25 drivers, a household goods cargo entry and an MCS-150 filed 30 April 2025. Docket MC-871506 sits on the census row, and the registration carries the company's own email domain, which is the bridge between the federal record and the brand. The FMCSA licensing mirror returned no operating-authority rows for this registration at the time of reading, so no authority role is stated either way. No federal safety rating is on file, which is neither a positive nor a negative signal. The company states on its own site that it was established in 2014, and the federal registration was added in June of that year.
