Every interstate moving company in the United States is required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to maintain a written, published tariff describing their rates, surcharges, accessorial charges, and rules. Most movers dread it. MoveSpace gives you three options to get one up the moment you sign up.
Operating an interstate move without a published tariff is a violation of 49 CFR § 375.207. FMCSA can levy fines, customers can file complaints with the National Consumer Complaint Database, and arbitration boards routinely side with customers when the carrier can't produce a tariff on demand.
A real, defensible tariff is also the carrier's best protection — it puts the rates and rules in writing BEFORE the customer disputes a charge.
Pick the path that fits where you are today. You can switch later.
Most movers pick this
Set your hourly rates, transport rates, surcharges, valuation coverage, and accessorial charges in your admin dashboard. MoveSpace generates a fully-formatted FMCSA-compliant tariff document from those values, including the required Section 4-1 / 4-2 / 5-1 boilerplate. Edit any value, the document updates automatically.
For carriers with one already
Already have a tariff filed with a previous platform or attorney? Upload the PDF in your admin dashboard. MoveSpace hosts it on your tenant page at {your-name}.movespace.market/tariff so customers and FMCSA agents can pull it on demand.
Fastest path — for new carriers
Brand new to interstate? Adopt the MoveSpace platform tariff by reference. It's an FMCSA-formatted document with industry-standard rates and rules you can use as-is. You set your own rate values inside it; the structure, boilerplate, and legal language is shared.
Note: MoveSpace provides the publishing infrastructure. Final responsibility for tariff accuracy and FMCSA compliance remains with the motor carrier. The platform does not act as a broker and does not file tariffs on behalf of carriers — each carrier publishes under their own operating authority.
Sign up takes about 10 minutes. Pick your tariff option after you complete company verification.
