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.
- Best for south florida local moves and outbound long-distance work booked directly with the carrier rather than through a broker.

- The federal licensing mirror returned no operating-authority rows for this registration when it was read, so interstate authority is not evidenced here even though the census row carries an MC docket.
