Reactivating MC or New Numbers?

I voluntarily deactivated my DOT/MC numbers in December. I'm moving out of state, and trying to decide if I should go through the effort of moving my 4yr old DOT/MC numbers or just start over. Would I have to go through another new entrant audit if I reactivate the old number?

Is there any difference from a broker standpoint? I know its almost impossible to work with most good brokers on new numbers, but have heard its essentially the same if you deactivate them and start again a few months later.

I have a good reputation with most of the brokers I've worked with, but one of my drivers was in 2 accidents 2 years ago with over 2m in claims, Insurance cost was unsustainable 58k for 1 truck. Im told insurance policies in the new state will only be looking at the past 3 years, the big one will roll off in May, but im not sure if that also factors in claims payouts or just the accident event itself. but from a brokers standpoint alone, does deactivating your numbers "for the winter" start you over from scratch?

 

One thing I forgot to mention, is if I go the new numbers route I will be closing my existing business, and opening in a different state with a new LLC. Infact, that will likely happen regardless, I just wasn't sure if It was worth trying to merge them, and transfer the MC. It doesn't sound like there is much point in it.
