Officially, no. Not what you wanted to hear, we know, but that is the honest answer.
We are not licensed to broker the shipment of household goods and, likewise, our carriers are not licensed to transport them from state to state. Both parties are licensed to carry just about anything else EXCEPT household goods. You can verify that by viewing our license from the Department of Transportation using the link below, just enter 632461 in the field next to MC. You can do the same with any other company to quickly view the same, as well as find out if they are a carrier or a broker.

You will hear a lot of companies tell you that you can put up to 100 pounds of items in the trunk, but that is not entirely true. That fact is that items of that amount are fairly common and the department of transportation is probably not going to split hairs and fine the trucker over items of that amount, provided they are not over their weight limit. They will fine them if they see a vehicle stuffed full of personal items and the carrier will most likely pass that fine on to you, if they allowed you to leave them in there in the first place, that is.
