What the FMCSA Record Says About Moving APT
Moving APT operates under USDOT number 395840 and is headquartered in Aventura, FL. Moving APT is on file with a "Conditional" FMCSA safety rating. It has a shorter FMCSA history than most of the carriers we track here.
The FMCSA database lists 89 total consumer complaints against this carrier, a rate of 5.60 per 1,000 shipments (High risk on our absolute scale). That puts it in the highest quarter for complaint volume among the 91 carriers in this dataset. Last inspection date on file: 2026-01-01.
Rounding out the record: the carrier holds active HHG (Household Goods) authority, while on insurance it meets the FMCSA minimum of $750,000 with $750,000 on file.
How we read this record, and what to verify before booking
Consumers should always cross-check figures on this page against the live FMCSA SAFER lookup for the most current reading, since complaint rates and safety ratings change over time. The FMCSA's household-goods complaint process covers disputes over lost or damaged items, hostage-load situations, estimate accuracy, late delivery, and billing disagreements, so a complaint count reflects a broad set of consumer-protection issues rather than any single type of failure.
The "per 1,000 shipments" rate and risk-level label above are PlainMove's own computed estimate, not a figure FMCSA itself publishes (FMCSA does not release a per-carrier shipment-volume field, so any complaint-per-shipment rate is necessarily an estimate). We are currently reviewing the accuracy of this estimation method; until that review is complete, treat the rate and risk-level label as illustrative rather than a verified measurement, and rely on the raw FMCSA complaint count and the live SAFER lookup above for anything decision-relevant.
Before signing any binding estimate, verify DOT# 395840 directly on safer.fmcsa.dot.gov, confirm that HHG authority is still active on the day you book, and request the carrier's cargo and liability certificates in writing. Authority, insurance, and complaint history together form the minimum FMCSA-backed due-diligence floor for any legitimate interstate household-goods move.
