What the registration shows
Empire Movers USA INC is registered as an intrastate carrier, meaning it is set up for moves that stay within California. It does not need interstate authority for those moves, but it cannot legally carry a move to another state. For in-state moves, California requires every company that moves household goods within the state to hold a Household Mover permit from the Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS), which took over this role from the CPUC. Movers must show their permit number (often called a Cal-T number) on their vehicles. Use the BHGS license search to check the permit is active and the mover is insured.
With 1 truck, Empire Movers USA INC is one of the smaller registered movers in the San Francisco 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 10 years (first added 2016), compared with a median of 5 years for San Francisco movers.
