Uship the only way to go!

Had read about UShip through a news article about a year ago. Wasn't sure how the system worked but kept it the back of mind for my next shipment. A recent auction had be succesfully bid on a few items, so I thought I would begin getting some quotes the conventional way and include Uship in the process as well. To my surprise it wasn't even 12 hrs later and I received my first bid. I reviewed the ...

Shipping CAT 246B

As with all 'first times' I was a little apprehensive at first. I have to admit that I didn't even know uship existed. In todays internet days and the possibilites of scams etc. I am always hesitant with new or unfamiliar ventures. After completing the transcation and making the arrangements, everything just fell into place. It couldn't have gone any smoother. Thanks a bunch I am very satisfi ...

Truck was in very good condition, I couldn`t be more satisfied. Doug V

Needed to get a Volvo MC-70 skid steer from Toronto to Regina as economically as possible.

Farm Tractor

I was trying to import a farm tractor and looking for a shipper. I was having difficulties getting a trucking company to commit to timelines and pricing. Some of these problems were further compounded by the broker. I decided to do the coordination myself and save some money, rather than pay the extra money for excuses. I had never used UShip before and decided to give it a try. I listed my tr ...

Hauled 3 step decks from vegas

This was my first go at uship so I wasn't sure. Didn't get a lot of response and it seemed many guys would do it for astronomical rates. But, after my load sat for 3 weeks it seemed guys were keeping it as a backhaul option, and then the good prices started coming. Andy from dak seemed quite well connected and got me hooked up for a reasonable fee. Was nice to work with a guy who had tons o po ...

shipping our 262C skid steer

The first provider we went with, although he promised to deliver, did not, and he was very difficult to communicate with. HOWEVER, the second provider we got (after having to cancel the first) - JTHotshotting- was awesome and we would have given them a 6/5 if that was possible! They were very professional, kept in constant contact, were accomodating at the pick up end when our contact couldn't m ...

Ritchie Bros. Auction

I bought my item at a Auction, and needed it to come almost across the entire country.I had heard of u-ship, but never used before.I wasn't in a hurry for my item, and this made for a better deal, as the shipping Co. could then plan a bigger trip. all i KNOW IS i COULDN'T DRIVE A 1/4 OF 1 WAY for what I payed. I'm happy p.s I like the show too, but somebody's gotta kill that hippie :)

FARM DRILL

Backhoe shipment

We saved money vs local freight providers and the load was delivered within our time frame,i would highly recommend this service to anyone with shipping needs.

Successful shipment for our business

We acquired a shipment consisting of equipment and associated hardware. A small load for most carriers, but larger than what we could do ourselves over the distance from the Lower Mainland of B.C. to the Interior. We listed the shipment on the uShip site, as I had used it previously on unrelated shipments. The responses and messaging services worked very well, and we were able to establish reli ...
