This division is composed of Nebraska Trucking members who move household goods and operate storage facilities. It serves as a forum to deal with issues common to movers, whether you are a local mover or a long-distance one.

Moving is the only part of trucking still regulated by the Nebraska Public Service Commission (PSC), so the division deals with the PSC on tariff and other regulatory matters, doing its utmost to ensure that Nebraska movers are on a level playing field.

The division meets as needed. It communicates with members on any federal or state legislative issue that may affect movers, and advises the Nebraska Trucking staff and legislative committee on its unique concerns.
