Buckhead Logistics LLC (Buckhead Movers)

Interstate household goods carrier registered with FMCSA under USDOT 1268823 and MC-495616, based in Atlanta, GA. Record as published in the Motor Carrier Census snapshot of 4 September 2026.

What the federal record says

Buckhead Logistics LLC trades as Buckhead Movers and holds USDOT number 1268823 and operating authority MC-495616. FMCSA records the company as an active interstate carrier for hire with a registered address in Atlanta, DeKalb County, Georgia. Its household goods authority is on file as common 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 21 July 2004, 22 years before this snapshot, and the last MCS-150 form on file was filed on 25 August 2025.

The filing reports 7 power units and 10 drivers, 1.4 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 7 trucks. The company reported 33,000 miles for 2024, which works out at roughly 4,714 miles per power unit. That places it 51st by fleet size among the 253 registered household goods carriers based in Georgia.

Besides household goods the census lists 9 other cargo classifications: general freight, motor vehicles, driveaway/towaway, logs, poles, beams, lumber, building materials, machinery, large objects, commodities dry bulk, paper products, construction. 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 Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswell, GA metropolitan area, where 148 other registered household goods carriers are based. FMCSA has not assigned this carrier a safety rating, which is normal: most registered carriers have never been through a compliance review.

The nearest other registered household goods carriers are Classic Logistics LLC in Atlanta (same ZIP code area), Masterpiece Installation Services INC in Atlanta (same ZIP code area), Armstrong Relocation Company in Doraville (same ZIP code area). Distances are between ZIP code centers, so they are approximate. Getting three written estimates from companies in the same area is the single cheapest thing you can do to avoid being overcharged.

Complaint history is not published here

FMCSA records household goods complaints in the National Consumer Complaint Database. That database has no bulk or export route open to the public, so no complaint counts appear on this site. Check the company yourself before you book. The FMCSA mover search returns complaint counts for the past three years alongside the registration record.

Our walkthrough of those lookups is on the FMCSA SAFER mover lookup guide.

Where this data comes from

Every company on these pages is registered with FMCSA. Registration is a filing requirement, not an endorsement, a licence to a standard, an approval, or a quality check by FMCSA or by this site. Fleet counts, driver counts and mileage are self reported by the carrier on form MCS-150 and are only as current as its last filing. Figures are reproduced as the federal files recorded them on the snapshot dates above and may have changed since.
