Mover licenses in
Indiana
Indiana licenses or registers movers working inside the state statewide.
Get a written estimate, confirm the company name matches the paperwork, and ask how it covers loss or damage. Your state's consumer protection office can tell you what applies. Find your state's office (opens official site).
Ask the licensing office directly: Indiana Department of Revenue, Motor Carrier Services (opens official site).
Moving to another state?
Interstate movers are registered with the federal government, not the state. Search the company in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's mover database, which also shows complaint history.

What the license should say
Ask what license or registration they hold and who issued it, then check it with that office. Make sure the name matches your paperwork.
The rule to know
Carriers that move household goods for hire in Indiana must apply for Indiana Operating Authority.
