What the registration shows
Deft Movers LLC is registered as an intrastate carrier, meaning it is set up for moves that stay within Louisiana. It does not need interstate authority for those moves, but it cannot legally carry a move to another state. For in-state moves, Rules for moves that stay within Louisiana vary. Some states license or register household-goods movers through their transportation department or public utilities commission, while others don't. Ask the mover for any Louisiana license or registration number and check it with the issuing agency, or ask the Louisiana attorney general's consumer protection office. For moves to or from another state, the mover must be registered with FMCSA and hold interstate household-goods authority.
With 2 trucks, Deft Movers LLC is one of the smaller registered movers in the Louisiana area (the median is 2). Smaller companies can offer more personal service; ask about availability in peak season.
It has been on the USDOT register for about 5 years (first added 2021), compared with a median of 10 years for Louisiana movers.
