Delancey Street Foundation (Delancey Street Moving & Transportation)

What the federal record says

Delancey Street Foundation trades as Delancey Street Moving & Transportation and holds USDOT number 289919 and operating authority MC-198922. FMCSA records the company as an active interstate carrier for hire with a registered address in San Francisco, San Francisco County, California. Its household goods authority is on file as common carrier of household goods and contract carrier of household goods, which is the grant that allows a company to move a household across a state line for money. The USDOT record was created on 8 April 1987, 39 years before this snapshot, and the last MCS-150 form on file was filed on 28 October 2025.

The filing reports 13 power units and 15 drivers, 1.2 per truck. A fleet in that range can usually keep two or three long haul jobs running at once, which is the point where a mover starts being able to hold a delivery window rather than a delivery month. The equipment itemized on the form is 9 trucks, 4 tractors, 13 trailers. The company reported 60,000 miles for 2024, which works out at roughly 4,615 miles per power unit. That places it 37th by fleet size among the 416 registered household goods carriers based in California.

Besides household goods the census lists 2 other cargo classifications: general freight, motor vehicles. A carrier with a broad cargo list is running household moves alongside other freight, which can mean better rates on a backhaul and less predictable scheduling. The registered address falls in the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA metropolitan area, where 45 other registered household goods carriers are based. FMCSA has assigned this carrier a satisfactory safety rating, dated 27 December 1993.
