41 moving companies are registered in Charlotte, NC, per the FMCSA federal register as of 2026-08-12. 41 of them hold carrier authority, meaning they move shipments on their own trucks, and 3 of the 41 also hold broker authority, meaning they can sell your job to another company. The median fleet is 2 trucks, and 78% run two or fewer.
Ordered by fleet size from the federal register. No company pays to appear, and we publish no star ratings: check any record yourself before you book.
A broker arranges the move and hands it to a carrier you have not met. Holding both is legal and common: ask which one your job is booked under, and get the answer in writing.
The register lists a filing as required and shows none on file. That is the single strongest signal on this page. Companies with no authority record at all are not counted here, because absent data is not the same as a missing filing.
Largest by trucks on the federal registration, which is a fact of the record and not a quality rating. Every line below is checkable at the source.

31 of the 40 Charlotte moving companies that state a fleet size run two trucks or fewer. The median is 2.
This is normal for the industry and not a warning on its own: plenty of two-truck operators do careful work. It matters for one practical reason. A company with two trucks has no spare capacity, so if your date slips, a truck breaks down, or a crew calls in sick, there is rarely a second crew to send. Ask what happens if the truck does not arrive, and get the answer before you pay a deposit.
