Questions about moving in Milwaukee

How many moving companies are there in Milwaukee?

138 carriers based in Milwaukee are registered with the US Department of Transportation to carry household goods for hire and updated their registration in the last two years. 95 of the companies listed here are licensed for moves to other states.

How do I check that a Milwaukee mover is licensed?

Ask for the company’s USDOT number and look it up in the government’s public record (every listing here links to it). For a move to another state the mover also needs an active out-of-state license, shown as an MC number. For a move within Wisconsin, also check the mover with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), Motor Carrier Unit.

Do movers need a license for a local move in Milwaukee?

Wisconsin has no license specific to movers, but a company hauling goods for pay within the state needs WisDOT intrastate for-hire authority (an "LC" number) unless it is registered under the Unified Carrier Registration system. Ask the mover for its LC or USDOT number. Send complaints to DATCP's Bureau of Consumer Protection at 800-422-7128 or online.

What is the cheapest way to move?

Move less. Every item you sell before moving day is one less thing to pack, load and pay to carry. Price it to go, and let the price drop each day until you move.
