Dircks Moving & Logistics

We do not publish a numeric score for moving companies.

Dircks Moving Services Inc trades as Dircks Moving & Logistics from 4340 W Mohave Street in Phoenix, the address on both its site and its federal filing, with 24 power units and 24 drivers on the census and active common authority carrying household goods. It states first-party that it is a Mayflower agent, so interstate shipments move inside the UniGroup network while the local company handles origin and destination work. The company's own newsletter marks a twenty-fifth anniversary in 2015, dating the business to 1990.

What is Dircks Moving & Logistics's USDOT number and is its authority active?

The USDOT number of Dircks Moving & Logistics is 923640. This reflects the federal record as of 2026-08-15.

Is Dircks Moving & Logistics the same company as Mayflower Transit?

No. Dircks Moving & Logistics operates as an agent of Mayflower Transit, which is a separate company with its own federal registration, USDOT 125563. The van line's number appears in agent branding and interstate notices, not as this company's own registration. The record that belongs to the company itself is USDOT 923640, and that is the one we publish above.

The distinction matters when you check a mover. A van line's safety history, fleet size and insurance filings describe the van line. They say nothing about the agent that will pack your home, load the truck and hold your contract.

Is Dircks Moving & Logistics licensed to move within Arizona?

Arizona issues no mover-specific authorisation; what a mover holds there is ordinary business registration. What a consumer can check instead is the Arizona Corporation Commission business registration. We have not verified Dircks Moving & Logistics's Arizona business registration. Holding federal interstate authority is a separate thing from holding state authorisation for a move that starts and ends inside one state.

What is Dircks Moving & Logistics's USDOT number?

How big is Dircks Moving & Logistics's fleet?

Dircks Moving & Logistics reports 24 power units and 24 drivers on its federal registration. Power units count trucks, tractors and other self-powered vehicles the company operates, not trailers. Dircks Moving & Logistics last updated that federal registration on May 21, 2026, so the counts describe the fleet as filed on that date rather than today.

Does Dircks Moving & Logistics have a federal safety rating?

Dircks Moving & Logistics has no federal safety rating on its census record. Most interstate carriers have never had a compliance review, and a rating is only assigned after one, so the absence of a rating is not a negative signal about Dircks Moving & Logistics. It means no rating review has been recorded, and the other federal registration details remain the material check.

Is Dircks Moving & Logistics a carrier, a broker, or both?

Dircks Moving & Logistics holds motor carrier authority on its federal licensing record and does not hold property broker authority. Carrier authority means Dircks Moving & Logistics is licensed to perform moves with its own trucks and crews rather than arrange them through another company. The crew that arrives on moving day works under this authority, and Dircks Moving & Logistics carries the federal liability for the shipment. The licensing record for Dircks Moving & Logistics shows household goods authority, property authority, and no broker authority.

Is Dircks Moving & Logistics authorised to move household goods?

Dircks Moving & Logistics holds active operating authority covering household goods on its federal licensing record. This is a stronger statement than the cargo classification on the census registration.

How much can a mover charge above a non-binding estimate?

On an interstate move priced with a non-binding estimate, a mover may require no more than 110% of the estimated charges before it will release your goods at delivery. That cap is set by 49 CFR 375.407, and it applies to the mover you hire regardless of what the final weight turns out to be. Anything owed above that amount is not payable on delivery day: the mover must bill you for it, and you have 30 days from delivery to pay it under 49 CFR 375.407.

Source: 49 CFR 375.407, eCFR

What is a mover liable for if my belongings are damaged?

Every interstate mover must offer released value, the no-extra-charge level of liability set by 49 CFR 375.701. Under released value the mover owes 60 cents per pound per article, so a claim is settled on what a damaged item weighs rather than on what it is worth. A heavy item pays out more than a light expensive one. The alternative is full value protection, which a mover must also offer, costs extra, and settles at repair, replacement, or a cash equivalent. Released value applies by default if you sign nothing else.

Dircks Moving & Logistics in one paragraph

Dircks Moving & Logistics has been operating since 1990 (about 36 years), runs out of Phoenix, AZ, and covers all 50 states. Current FMCSA filing shows USDOT 923640 and MC 398594. Dircks Moving Services Inc trades as Dircks Moving & Logistics from 4340 W Mohave Street in Phoenix, the address on both its site and its federal filing, with 24 power units and 24 drivers on the census and active common authority carrying household goods. It states first-party that it is a Mayflower agent, so interstate shipments move inside the UniGroup network while the local company handles origin and destination work. The company's own newsletter marks a twenty-fifth anniversary in 2015, dating the business to 1990.

Estimated cost of a move with this carrier

This is an estimated quote range, not a record of prices paid. For a 2-bedroom interstate move, Dircks Moving & Logistics quotes generally land in the $1,800–$5,400 range, with the midpoint of that estimated range near $3,600. The low end of that range usually applies to off-season runs under 1,000 miles with self-packing; the high end shows up on full-service summer moves over 2,000 miles.

Local hourly pricing through Dircks Moving & Logistics is not published by the company and we hold no rate card for it. Our national editorial estimate for a two-mover crew and a truck on a local move is $105 to $155 an hour, May 2026, and it is a model figure rather than a quote from this carrier. Ask whether travel time, fuel surcharge, and stair fees sit inside or outside the hourly number, because that is where two apparently identical quotes diverge.

Where this carrier may fit

Arizona household and commercial moves that need a national network for the long leg. That is an editorial view of fit, not a measured performance result: we hold no complaint-rate, claims-outcome or satisfaction dataset for Dircks Moving & Logistics. Three things make any move with this company more predictable, whatever the carrier: an inventory list locked in two or more weeks ahead, a binding not-to-exceed estimate in writing, and a destination ZIP the company services directly rather than through a subcontracted agent.

How to work around the main trade-off

The trade-off summarised at the top of this page is the one that most often costs readers money with Dircks Moving & Logistics. Two questions defuse it at quote stage: ask for the specific line items that drive the number up on your move profile, and ask whether the crew at your origin is employed directly or subcontracted to a local agent.

Then price the same inventory with one alternative below. A second quote on identical inventory is the only reliable way to tell whether the premium buys you anything on your particular lane.

Booking process, step by step

  • Request a quote with a complete inventory list. Online forms are fine for a first pass; a video survey is what makes a binding number stick.
  • Insist on binding-not-to-exceed in writing. Federal rules let a carrier collect up to 110% of a non-binding estimate at delivery, with the balance billed later; a binding not-to-exceed estimate removes that exposure.
  • Confirm valuation coverage. Released value (the federal default) pays $0.60 per pound. Full-value protection costs more but actually replaces a damaged TV.
  • Confirm pickup and delivery windows. For interstate jobs the delivery window is a range, not a date — plan accordingly.
  • On move day, walk the truck and check the inventory list before signing the Bill of Lading. Note any pre-existing damage on the form.

What this page does and does not say

We publish no numeric score, star rating or ranked order for Dircks Moving & Logistics, and we recommend no company over another. What this page carries is the federal registration record above and the sourced facts beside it. Read those, then price the same written inventory with one alternative before you sign.
