How household-goods moving costs vary in Connecticut
State-specific code or insurance rule: Connecticut transferred intrastate household-goods regulatory authority from the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC, predecessor to PURA) to the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) Bureau of Public Transportation Motor Transport Services — making Connecticut one of the few northeastern states where intrastate HHG carriers are regulated by the state DOT rather than a Public Service Commission — and Connecticut General Statutes § 13b-389 establishes intrastate carrier authority requirements with mandatory FVP-vs-RVP valuation disclosure on every estimate, plus Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection has parallel complaint adjudication authority.
