Great Concept
We are downsizing, so we have items of furniture and household goods to disperse to our family in different cities in the US. We have been delighted to discover this service and to use bids to obtain reasonable moving services to get the goods to our family.

Successful shipping of one piece of furniture cross country (Chicago to San Francisco)
I had never used uShip before so I was very wary about the process, shipping costs and delivery. I was pleasantly surprised that everything was went smoothly! Using uShip was so easy. All I had to do was list my item and delivery wishes and I received shipping quotes within minutes! I will definitely use uShip again!

Uship
I had a good experience with uship. I was referred by a friend who moved from Florida to Arkansas. He told me it was easy and it was. I followed the steps and was getting bids in minutes. Its a great way to save money. Wish I thought of it.

Furniture
I was so excited I found a special piece of furniture that went to a bedroom suite of mine that had been discontinued. With out thought I purchased it immediately. Well the seller was in Williamstown NJ and I am located in Stockbridge GA. With no clue as to how I was going to get it here, I was told about uship. Well I place my bid and was happily surprised by the bids that were coming in. I sel ...

A heavy mattress from LA to Palo Alto, near San Jose
uShip provided us with a fast, easy and efficient way to get the best bids on our shipping project all in 24 hours! We had a very positive experience with our Service Provider - excellent communications and coordination, prompt pick-up and delivery, very friendly and helpful attitude and highly competitive pricing as well.

This is a great service to use!
I bought some furniture off of Craiglist and this was the perfect way to get it the 400 miles I needed it to travel.
Will definitely use again!

Transcontinental Furniture Moving
Q-Ball was terrific, including spending extra time carefully padding and wrapping our hand-made furniture, and then unwrapping and setting up at the destination. Driver Andre kept us informed by phone on the trans-continental move.
On delivery day, Florida was hit by several tornadoes and driving winds/rains. Andre called ahead, alerted us, kept us advised, and treated us so decently we thought ...

My shipment
I shipped three chairs, a kitchen table, a very heavy glass top coffee table with a marble base and a wrought iron curio unit. I was caught off guard because I thought it would take longer to arrange for these items to be shipped but the bids started coming in within hours of posting the shipment. We settled on using Wade, he was from Minnesota which is where the shipment was going to and he liv ...

Sub Zero fridge
My deal fell through due to the seller changing description of fridge after I bid on it but when I am ready to use U Ship again I will absolutly go with Dwyane for his kindness and honesty, and any man who isnt ashamed to say God Bless is ok in my book! Thanks Dwyane

uShip is Great!
My experience will uShip has been excellent. My serive provider(Landlift) is the best. I have use them twice and will use them again. Steven is very professional...he communicates with me from start to finish. Excellent customer service.

I love your company
This is a wonderful service. It's made for people who shop on Craiglist and ebay for larger items. I found you by googling but you need to buy ads on google, and e-bay. You're gonna do great and I will use you whenever I can. I feel better about getting things from out of state that are larger than the average shipping experience.

Awesome
We saved a lot of money by buying a trash compactor for our new house on Ebay. Then the fun began...how to get it from CA to GA??? Never really thought it would be anything more than calling UPS...WRONG! WOW! They wanted like $1000 + to ship it and no telling how it would have been dropped, tossed and packed along the path. When I found Uship, I was amazed with how the system was set up, how easy ...

moving furniture
Went well and as expected, the deposit system is a little funny though. I dont understand why extra fees where tacked on to the bid and then uship took a portion of the bid total as well. Other than that good service will and have recommended to friends.

Shipping from Florida to El Paso, Texas
I purchased (actually stole) two pieces of furniture on ebay. Being new to both ebay and shipping, I felt a bit queezy when I realized I bought a bed and nightstand in a town 1800 miles away for a ridiculous amount WITHOUT thinking about how I was going to get it home! The sellers were not offering a shipper and I showed major signs of stress. I was not going to renig on the purchase so decided I ...

sending a Venetian mirror across country
WildPhantom Transport was tremendous. I highly recommend Phyllis, Mike and Ron and would use them again in the future. Very professional!

Great Experience
Wayne called and gave me a heads up just before he arrived. He was great. Would use him again in a heartbeat.

Great experience shipping my vintage Fridge
If it were not for uShip I would not have been able to buy this beautiful antique. I was lucky to find a 1940 GE Deluxe Fridge at a low price but it ended up being too far away. With uShip I was able to find shipping at a cost within my budget. I was able to pick from a list of shippers bidding on my shipment. I was able to see their feedback, type of vehicle they were using and of course their p ...

My first experience with uShip
I was bidding on an exercise machine in a liquidation auction and needed an estimate of the probable shipping cost, should I happen to win the auction. The uShip estimator provided a list of ten items and shipping distances similar to what my requirements would be. This allowed me to keep my bidding (and shipping) within my budget. I then posted my shipment on uShip, even though the auction was ...

I use uship whenever I have to arrange for ebay or other delivery myself. Had only two experiences so far but both were great. UShip model is terrific.

Great first-time shipping furniture experience
Needed to ship some bedroom furniture to my daughter within a short time frame. Their bid came in immediately upon posting at a very reasonable price with a delivery date never thought possible. The whole deal was finalized in a matter of maybe one hour--on a Sunday yet! Furniture was picked up the following Tuesday in St Louis and delivered in Denver on Thursday, 7:30 AM--all as promised. I w ...

large sofa
I was very happy with our shipper. Uship had some communication issues that I was not happy with though.

First time using this service--success!
I bought an item on line--but the seller wanted to charge more than the cost of the thing to ship it. I found uship.com and the rest is history. Rusty made it happen, for half what the seller wanted to charge me.

Washing Machine Shipment
I was moving a small washing machine from Maryland to Georgia. The shipper I used had a very low price but his truck broke down on the way. This delayed the shipment by about a week. If I had to do it again, I would have been willing to pay more for someone who delivered on time. My impression is that UShip does not provide any sort of guarantee for the vendors on the site and there isn't much leg ...

Shipment with Qball(Andre)
The service was really very great,Andre was extremely helpful and very polite man.I had a last minute change in the Items to pick up there were more items than what i told him initially, but he dint charge me single penny more, he is a good man and good heart.

Excellent service shipping my jukebox
I bought a jukebox from a guy in Nashville, TN on Craigslist and I needed to get it shipped to Austin, TX. I somehow found Uship and listed my machine and within hours I had 3 bids. I was a little apprehensive at first having never used a service like this, but eventually I accepted a bid from a guy named Howard based not only on his low price, but also he excellent feedback. The personal experien ...

First Everything as a Real Grown-up
I am at that age where I am starting to settle down and furnish my home with the possessions and furniture that are not from Target and IKEA. My parents are at the place where they are trying to get rid of things and be true empty nesters now that they are assured none of us are coming back! I have always love one of the beds in the house and they offered it to me. I started calling shipping compa ...

Great Experience
My parents who are in their late seventies were downsizing and I needed to ship my grandmother's desk and chair from Philadelphia to my cousin in Atlanta. UPS estimated shipment at $700+. Searching for an alternative online, I came across uShip, and was able to send both the desk and chair for just $200. Rubberduck shipped our antiques, which were worth far more in sentimental value, more than ...

Auction Item and 20 hrs drive time
I wound up being the winning bidder on an online auction item. The real work began, trying to find a shipper. I stumbled onto uShip by way of a search engine and viola! I had already figured out what it was going to cost me to go pick it up so I added some margin to that for the time factor it would save me and convenience of using a shipper. I used that figure as my max $$ and had several bid ...

uShip experience
We had never tried uShip before but we have been very pleased. We were surprised how quickly our job was completed. The entire process was easy, fast, and cost effective. We highly recommend uShip and would use the service for any future shippings needs that we may have.

Easy tio use and understand - Great results
I needed to have some items delivered to my daughter in California. They were items left from college and some items she had inherited from her grandmother. U ship found me 5 shippers who were willing to deliver these items and all at a reasonable cost. It saved me hours of phone shopping and many headaches. I would recommend the service

King Size Bed
We purchased a King size bed frame and night stands from an online posting then contacted Uship for transportation. Peter provided great service and communication through out the entire process. Buying from an unknown seller and contacting an unknown shipper can be scary. Peter put our minds at ease through the process and we were greatful. We would not hesitate to use his services again.

pennantique
u-ship was recommended to us by a relative that shipped a number of items cross-country.
When we found out that the trailer rental company no longer rents hitches, we gave u-ship a try.
We had mulitple offers from reputable companies to move household goods halfway across the country.
The only shortcoming we saw with the u-ship service was that the website does not integrate payment, whic ...

Bookcase from Portland to San Francisco
I agreed to purchase a bookcase on-line in Portland provided I could find a reasonable way of getting it moved to San Francisco. I received too bids that seems very reasonable to me and chose one - simply a matter of timing of pick-up and delivery. The bookcase arrived within the agreed-upon window, and in perfect condition.
This was my first experience with UShip and I was very pleased.
|
Excellent Experience
I highly recommend this company's service. The drivers were prompt and courteous and the items were delivered on time and with great care. However, the communication, time and assistance I received from the home office is well truly what exemplifies a first class business. They provided a solution to a problem that I was experiencing on my end that ultimately saved me a considerable amount of time ...

great experience
I was hesitant accepting a bid form a shipper fairly new. I believe they had 15 ratings. They really came though !!I could not have asked for anything more from them. It is really great to have this service U-ship provides. We saved $$ compared to standard rates from other shippers.
UTW (union transport worldwide) is a top performer. Leah really works with you to get things scheduled.

Complex move went well!
We were sending a dining room table and six chairs to our daughter and son-in-law in San Francisco. They were moving into a larger apartment with a new baby on the way. However, the furniture needed to be stored for a couple of weeks before they actually got into the larger place. Lois and Frank made every effort to hold onto the furniture in their storage unit in Seattle until they got moved a ...

Uship: Accolades and Suggestions
Accolades:
uShip has a great site that made it very easy to provide all necessary details about my requirements and get many bids from transportation companies. The site lets you set up alerts, view/reject/accept bids, see reviews on transporters and communicate with them. While I had almost decided to go with Uhaul and hual the load myself, uShip helped me watch others transport it for the same ...

My uShip
As a first time person, and disabled, I was disappointed that I could not find a telephone number for someone I could call for assistance. Then I was sanctioned for asking a shipper to call me because I thought I entered my information wrong and wanted to explain it when I thought he may have bid too low. I was only trying to be fair to the shippers. It would have been nice if there was a help de ...

First Time UShip-er
I needed to move some items from my elderly parents house in the midwest to my new house on the west coast. Did not know where to go or what to do! Did a google search and found UShip. First few weeks did not go so well, and I had lot of rejects. But, I kept at it and followed the advice from the Uship emails. With that, I sent out feeler emails to prospective shippers and that is how I found ...

Great experience with U ship
I had an antique hosier cabinet to ship from Miami to Western Massachusetts and decided to give UShip a try. I had several bids and chose the service provider who could pick up and deliver the furniture in the time period that worked for me. Price was also a factor.
I was exremely pleased with the entire process including the bidding, communication, pickup and delivery.I really liked being abl ...

shipping my washer and dryer
Thanks to Tony Lincoln, using uship was a very positive experience. It's nice to work with trustworthy people who take care of your goods as if they were their own. He showed up on time and was a very fun positive person to work with. It wasn't easy getting our washer and dryer down the steep stairs and onto the truck but Tony was very careful to wrap it properly and move it onto the truck. I w ...

I found a Simmons mattress in Michigan selling for $2100. I found the same mattress at the Simmons mattress outlet in Atlanta GA for $869. I needed to have it shipped. I named my own price and Sample Transport (John Sample) accepted my bid of $400 for shipping.
I ran into same snags along the way and John helped me resolve them.
I received my mattress and now I am enjoying a wonderful res ...

Delivery of expensive antique table
UShip was the perfect service at the right time. I needed a delivery service on short notice to get my expensive antique table the final 50 miles home after a lengthy adventure getting it overseas from Paris. I've never dealt with Customs or international frieght shipping and its been a difficult learning process. UShip and the service provider ManTruck that they linked me up with were a Godsend ...

Great furniture shipment
Used uShip to try to find a shipper which did not outprice our purchase to the point of making no sense. Very satisfied with the quotes we received and the manner uShip took our info and responded. Great service!!!
