Highlights
- Fair employer — Indeed reviewers cite reliable, on-time pay
- Safety awards — cites an NTTC award and a 3rd consecutive Grand Safety Award
- Wrong category — this is a fuel-oil trucking carrier, not a household mover
- Reckless driving reports — two public complaints describe dangerous highway driving
J S Transport Co, in Lynn, isn't a moving company at all — it's a bulk fuel-oil and petroleum products trucking carrier. The Hamel family has run it since 1992, operating around a dozen trucks and over twenty drivers hauling refined petroleum for shippers across the Northeast, according to its own leadership on LinkedIn. There's no track record here of packing boxes or hauling furniture, so the reviews that exist don't tell you anything about a move. What's on the public record instead: two complaints, one from 2023 and one from 2025, describing company trucks driving recklessly on public roads — tailgating at high speed in one case, nearly rear-ending another driver in the other. Employees on Indeed, meanwhile, describe the company as a fair, reliable place to work, with on-time pay. The company's own site lists safety awards from the National Tank Truck Carriers group, which sits awkwardly next to those driving complaints. If you're looking for a household mover, this isn't the business — it showed up here because of how it's categorized on some directories, not because it moves people's belongings. If you need a fuel-oil delivery or bulk petroleum carrier instead, its DOT and MC numbers (638928 / 300615) are on record, but that's a different job than the one this directory is built around.

One of the drivers was far behind me on lynnfeild street and came flying up behind me going at least 50mph and continued to do so all the way to Boston street . Reckless driving like that is going to get someone seriously injured.
