What the federal record says

Gore Moving & Storage INC holds USDOT number 714881 and operating authority MC-312990. FMCSA records the company as an active interstate carrier for hire with a registered address in Windham, Cumberland County, Maine. 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 19 November 1997, 28 years before this snapshot, and the last MCS-150 form on file was filed on 18 November 2025.

Gore Moving & Storage INC reports 4 power units and 1 driver, 0.3 drivers per truck. At that size a long haul booking usually means one crew and one truck for the whole trip, so dates are tight and a delay at the origin runs through the whole schedule. The equipment itemized on the form is 3 trucks, 1 tractor, 1 trailer. The company reported 18,417 miles for 2024, which works out at roughly 4,604 miles per power unit. That places it 9th by fleet size among the 19 registered household goods carriers based in Maine.

Besides household goods the census lists 1 other cargo classification: machinery, large objects. 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 Portland-South Portland, ME metropolitan area, where 9 other registered household goods carriers are based. FMCSA has assigned this carrier a satisfactory safety rating, dated 18 September 2006.

The nearest other registered household goods carriers are Tmt Portland LLC in Westbrook (6.5 miles), Local Muscle LLC in Portland (9 miles), Earle W Noyes & Son in Portland (11.7 miles). 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.

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.
