What the federal record says

Security Storage & Van Company of Norfolk Va INC holds USDOT number 121073 and operating authority MC-128699. FMCSA records the company as an active interstate carrier for hire with a registered address in Norfolk, Norfolk city, Virginia. 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 1 June 1974, 52 years before this snapshot, and the last MCS-150 form on file was filed on 27 March 2026.

The filing reports 19 power units and 10 drivers, 0.5 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 15 trucks, 4 tractors, 10 trailers. The company reported 110,000 miles for 2025, which works out at roughly 5,789 miles per power unit. That places it 23rd by fleet size among the 274 registered household goods carriers based in Virginia.

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 Virginia Beach-Chesapeake-Norfolk, VA-NC metropolitan area, where 50 other registered household goods carriers are based. FMCSA has assigned this carrier a satisfactory safety rating, dated 10 September 1980.

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.
