Each year, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Admin. (FMCSA) receives about 3,000 consumer complaints regarding interstate moving companies: some involve egregious offenses, such as holding goods hostage. Over the years, Congress has raised concerns about the adequacy of FMCSA's oversight of the industry. This report reviewed the: (1) extent to which states have used authority in the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act to take federal enforcement action against interstate movers and challenges in using that authority; (2) extent and timeliness of FMCSA's progress in its consumer protection efforts; and (3) advantages and disadvantages of options for enhancing consumer protection in the industry.
