Insurance on file

Liability (BI&PD) pays for injury and damage to other people and property; it does not cover the freight. Cargo insurance covers the freight. FMCSA only requires cargo filings from household goods carriers and freight forwarders, so most carriers file none: ask for a cargo certificate that fits your load. Cargo cover filed: $5,000.

How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Massachusetts average covers 21,932 vehicle and 35,941 driver inspections of all Massachusetts-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile ↗ · SAFER snapshot ↗

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the Massachusetts column is the mix across all Massachusetts-based carriers, so you can see which kinds of problems stand out. A high count partly reflects fleet size and how often trucks are inspected.

Questions about EAST COAST BOSTON MOVERS INC

What does EAST COAST BOSTON MOVERS INC's operating authority allow?

MC1225655: Household goods carrier (may move household goods for hire).

Which information about EAST COAST BOSTON MOVERS INC is old or missing?

MC1453269, filed under another USDOT, is shown with its last known status from May 14, 2026. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.

What should I verify before booking EAST COAST BOSTON MOVERS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3604698. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (617) 716-6501, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1225655, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
