What the federal record says
Samonas Prime Moving & Storage INC holds USDOT number 1292731 and operating authority MC-502447. FMCSA records the company as an active interstate carrier for hire with a registered address in Sound Beach, Suffolk County, New York. 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 6 October 2004, 21 years before this snapshot, and the last MCS-150 form on file was filed on 3 December 2024.
Samonas Prime Moving & Storage INC reports 4 power units and 3 drivers, 0.8 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 74,568 miles for 2023, which works out at roughly 18,642 miles per power unit. That places it 134th by fleet size among the 342 registered household goods carriers based in New York.
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 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 Richthemover LLC in Miller Place (2.2 miles), Harbor Moving & Storage LLC in Syosset (8.6 miles), Akan Freight INC in Centereach (8.6 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.

Before you book Samonas Prime Moving & Storage INC
- Check the USDOT number on the quote matches 1292731. 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.
What this kind of move costs
A full service van line is the most expensive of the eight methods this site ranks. These are our national cost bands for a two bedroom home, off peak, from cost by distance. Peak season, June through August, adds 30 to 40 percent.

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.
