International Van Lines review (2026)

Is International Van Lines licensed to move within Florida?

For a move that stays inside Florida, movers are authorised by Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, and the authorisation is called Household Moving Services Registration, issued as an Intrastate Mover (IM) number. The agency publishes no public lookup and no recorded phone or email for verifying an individual mover. We have not verified International Van Lines's Florida authorisation, and nothing here says it lacks one. Holding federal interstate authority is a separate thing from holding state authorisation for a move that starts and ends inside one state.

Is International Van Lines registered to carry household goods?

International Van Lines lists household goods among the cargo classifications on its federal census record, alongside no other class. A cargo classification records what the company registered on its MCS-150 form. It is not the same thing as active household goods operating authority, which is held on a separate federal licensing and insurance record and has to be checked there.

How big is International Van Lines's fleet?

International Van Lines reports 24 power units and 15 drivers on its federal registration. Power units count trucks, tractors and other self-powered vehicles the company operates, not trailers. International Van Lines last updated that federal registration on March 6, 2025, so the counts describe the fleet as filed on that date rather than today.

Is International Van Lines a carrier, a broker, or both?

International Van Lines holds motor carrier authority on its federal licensing record and does not hold property broker authority. Carrier authority means International Van Lines 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 International Van Lines carries the federal liability for the shipment. The licensing record for International Van Lines shows household goods authority, and no property authority, no broker authority, no passenger authority.

Is International Van Lines authorised to move household goods?

International Van Lines 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, which only records that International Van Lines registered household goods as a cargo type. Authority is the licence to carry that freight for hire, and it has to be active for International Van Lines to move a household across state lines lawfully.

What are International Van Lines's out-of-service rates?

International Van Lines has a vehicle out-of-service rate of 33.3%, against a national average of 23.4%. International Van Lines has a driver out-of-service rate of 11.1%, against a national average of 6.7%. Both figures are read from the federal record as of March 18, 2026. An out-of-service rate is the share of roadside inspections that ended with a vehicle or a driver being placed out of service. These are roadside inspection results, not a service quality score, and they describe the inspections in the federal window rather than any individual move.

Has International Van Lines had a federal compliance review?

International Van Lines has a federal compliance review recorded on July 10, 2025. The federal record marks that review as non-ratable, which means it did not result in a safety rating. A non-ratable review is neither a pass nor a failure: it records that the review took place and that no rating was assigned from it, so International Van Lines carries no federal safety rating from this review.

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.

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.
