What the registration shows
1961 holds active interstate operating authority (MC-70691) according to the FMCSA census data, so it is authorized to carry household goods across state lines. Interstate movers must follow federal consumer-protection rules: written estimates, the Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move booklet, and an arbitration program for disputes.
With 9 trucks, 1961 runs a larger fleet than about 93% of the 306 registered movers in our New York directory (median: 2).
It has been on the USDOT register for about 52 years (first added 1974), compared with a median of 9 years for New York movers.
FMCSA has given 1961 a Satisfactory safety rating (2001). Most carriers have never had a compliance review and are unrated.

- For an interstate move, confirm the operating authority is active and household goods are listed.
- Ask for a written estimate after a video or in-home survey, and ask whether it is binding.
- Ask about valuation coverage and how damage claims are handled.
- Avoid paying a large deposit up front. See moving scam red flags.
