MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE MOTOR CARRIER INDUSTRY – Trucking/Commercial Vehicles for Heavy Machinery Shipping
What types of carriers are regulated by the Rhode Island Division of Public Utilities and
Carriers?
The Division regulates all person(s) who transport either passengers or property within the State
of Rhode Island. This includes tow trucks, household goods movers, sand & gravel haulers,
taxicabs, limited public motor vehicles, jitneys, ferry boats, boat haulers, courier services, and
armored car services. Also, items requiring expertise in handling (i.e. riggers, petroleum product)
I want to start a transportation company. How do I obtain an application to start such a
business?
You may obtain an application by calling this office at 941-4500, extension 158, from this web site
or by appearing in the Motor Carriers Division office at 89 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick, RI
02888.
What are my rights as a consumer for transporting my household goods by a certificated
carrier within the State of Rhode Island?
You have plenty of rights when you have your household goods transported by a certificated
household goods mover. The most important of these rights is your assurance that the carrier will
only charge rates that have been approved by the Division of Public Utilities and Carriers. If you
feel you have been overcharged, you may contact the Division to review the rates you were
charged. The Division will then investigate all charges assessed to you and report back to you.
Also, the Division insures that all carriers maintain financial responsibility (insurance) to insure
you against loss or damage to your goods.
What do I do if I have goods damaged by a household goods carrier?
The first thing you need to do is contact the motor carrier, in writing, notifying them of damages to
your goods during the move. With your letter include a copy of any documentation you have as to
the estimated cost to repair the item(s). Most times, the carrier will send someone to inspect the
item(s). If they accept responsibility for the damage, they usually will approve the repair and deal
directly with you in the matter.
What if a carrier does not accept responsibility for damages?
If the carrier does not accept responsibility, you may file a claim directly with the insurance
company of the certificated carrier. Insurance information can be obtained by calling the Division
at 941-4500.
