What the federal record says

East West Movers LLC holds USDOT number 3957023 and operating authority MC-1474568. FMCSA records the company as an active interstate carrier for hire with a registered address in Clifton, Passaic County, New Jersey. 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 September 2022, 3 years before this snapshot, and the last MCS-150 form on file was filed on 9 May 2026.

East West Movers LLC reports 2 power units and 1 driver, 0.5 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 2 trucks. The company reported 10,000 miles for 2025, which works out at roughly 5,000 miles per power unit. That places it 168th by fleet size among the 380 registered household goods carriers based in New Jersey.

Household goods is the only cargo classification on the record, so this is a dedicated moving operation rather than a freight carrier that also takes household work. The registered address falls in the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ metropolitan area, where 568 other registered household goods carriers are based. FMCSA has assigned this carrier a conditional safety rating, dated 13 August 2024.

The nearest other registered household goods carriers are Mkd Carrier INC in Clifton (same ZIP code area), Amplified Moving LLC in Clifton (same ZIP code area), Express Haulers LLC in Clifton (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.

Before you book East West Movers LLC

  • Check the USDOT number on the quote matches 3957023. Brokers routinely quote under one company and hand the job to another.
  • Ask for a written binding or not-to-exceed estimate. A non-binding estimate can legally rise, and the carrier may demand up to 110 percent of it at delivery before unloading.
  • Confirm valuation coverage. The free option is released value at 60 cents per pound per article, which pays about $60 for a 100 pound dresser.
  • Get the same scope priced by at least two of the nearby carriers listed above.

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.
