Does Nebraska license moving companies?

Yes, for moves inside the state. The Nebraska Public Service Commission (NPSC) issues the credential. Ask for the NPSC household goods mover licence and check it on the official site.

Does the state rule apply to an interstate move?

No. A move that crosses the state line is under FMCSA rules: written estimate, binding or non-binding, the 110% rule, and a USDOT you can check on SAFER.

Where do I complain about a mover in Nebraska?

In-state: the Nebraska Public Service Commission. Interstate: the FMCSA National Consumer Complaint Database, and the hotline for a hostage load.

What to know before the deposit

Nebraska replaced its certificates with an annual household goods mover licence in 2021, and the NPSC no longer sets moving rates. The commission publishes the list of licensed movers.

Registered is not the same as good. A state credential means the office can find the company and that it filed what the state requires. Read the dated reviews, then call.
