Before you sign with Forbes Hewlett Transport Inc
4 questionsDrawn from this company's own filing. The answers tell you more than any rating could.
What insurance covers damage to my belongings, and can you send the certificate?
No cargo policy appears in this company's federal filing. The liability coverage on file covers damage to other people, not to what is inside the truck.
Read: Released value vs full value protection
Is this a binding estimate, a non-binding estimate, or binding not-to-exceed?
These are three different contracts. Only one of them caps what you can be charged, and the difference commonly shows up as hundreds of dollars on delivery day.
Read: Binding vs non-binding estimates
What is the charge if there are stairs, a long carry, or no parking for a full-size truck?
Access charges are the most common reason a final bill lands above the estimate, and they are rarely quoted unless asked.
Read: What drives moving costsAm I getting released value protection or full value protection?
Released value is the free default and pays 60 cents per pound — roughly $18 for a 30-pound television. It is not insurance.

What these terms mean
- USDOT number
- A permanent registration number issued by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. It stays with a company for its lifetime and is how any filing is looked up.
- Docket (MC) number
- The number attached to a grant of operating authority. A company holds one docket per authority type, so a company that both carries and brokers has more than one.
- Operating authority
- Federal permission to move goods across a state line for money. Without it, a company cannot legally perform an interstate household goods move.
- Cargo insurance
- The policy that covers loss or damage to a customer's belongings while the carrier has them. Required of household goods carriers, not of brokers.
- Public liability (BIPD)
- Bodily injury and property damage coverage. It pays for harm the company causes to other people and their property — a vehicle it hits, a wall it drives into. It does not cover the shipment.
- Power units
- Trucks and tractors the company reported to FMCSA on its most recent biennial update. Self-reported, and often out of date.
We reproduce federal filings as filed and do not rate, rank, score or endorse any company. If this record is wrong, the company can correct it with the FMCSA and the next daily pull will carry the change.
