Moving out of Maine: what the data shows

13 of 15 Maine moving companies (86.7%) hold interstate operating authority, compared to 82.4% across the 3,185 movers GoodMigrations tracks nationally. Any company moving your household across a state line needs that authority and a USDOT number, which you can verify yourself through the FMCSA company snapshot tool.

6 Maine movers (40.0%) offer full valuation coverage, against 29.2% nationally. The alternative is released-value protection, which every interstate mover must offer at no charge and which pays 60 cents per pound per article. On that basis a 50 pound item worth $1,500 settles for $30.

80.0% of the Maine movers GoodMigrations tracks offer storage in transit, which matters on long routes where your delivery window and your lease dates do not line up.

Local moves inside Maine average $135 per hour for a crew, which is billed by time. Interstate moves are priced on shipment weight and distance instead, so an hourly rate is not a useful benchmark once you cross a state line.

Licensing rules for movers in Maine

Although a local license is not required in Maine, make sure the moving company you’ll be hiring is registered with U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT). To verify if you’re dealing with a legal and licensed mover, you may ask them their USDOT registration number.

The Maine Motor Transport Association is the state industry body for Maine movers. State registration status can be checked directly at the Maine regulator.
