Best shipping around

I was looking into different ways to ship some household items for a cross country move, and someone reccomended uShip. I used the uShip calculator to determine how much I could expect to pay a provider to ship my goods, and it was far cheaper than the cost of renting the smallest U-Haul. The odd thing is that after I posted my shipment, most of the bids I recieved were way above what I expected ...

Happy with Uship

Uship helped me to get a wide variety of quotes from people without having to do all the running around myself. I booked the shipment and the shipping company was very nice to deal with. The only issue was that one item that I booked the measurements were off by 3 inches so they were not able to fit it in the trailer. I understand that it was not their fault I was going by the measuements I was ...

18th Centry Grandfather clock shipped safely to California for the UK

This clock originally started out in Europe, and was given to me by my great great uncle who was a 'Prisoner of war' in in the spice islands of Indonesia during the 40's. He passed away recently well into his 90's and I had the tough task of trying to find a safe way to get my clock to the US. Luckily I found uShip who matched me with a service provider who safely packaged and shipped my clock v ...

Reunited with my boxes

When I moved abroad a few years ago, I sold just about everything and then stored a few boxes of personal items in my parents' basement in Seattle. I moved back to the States - but to Austin this time - and am finally reunited with my boxes! Frank and Lois (aka seattledriver) are what I love about uShip. They are are a dynamite husband-and-wife team who will make you feel crazy for ever considerin ...

Shipped luggage

I will definitely use UShip again. It provided great rates which was quite affordable for me to ship my items from Chicago to Georgia. I received adequate bids that were in my budget.

Moving Memories from ME to OH

My folks sold their home of 54yrs and moved into a 2 bedroom apartment. Problem was they live in ME and I live in OH. They were only taking smaller pieces of furniture and I was offered some of the other items. Not top of the line antiques, but I'm 58, and I did grow up with them : ) Husband told me about uShip from watching the Clark Howard show. Found it very easy to use and received ...

Golf Cart Shipment

I shipped my golf cart to my winter residence in Florida from my Wisconsin residence. Shipper kept in touch the entire time, and delivered as promised. Extremely happy with service and price!

Shipment worked out fine

My first time using uship, was a little disappointed that nearly all responses were from brokers. I was hoping independent truckers needing to fill out a load would see my shipment. I may have saved a little in freight, but at least I got the insurance coverage I needed that other carriers wouldn't provide. I had to cancel a second shipment due to bidders refusing to address my insurance n ...

Good experience

I was shipping a piece of furniture that I had bought. Uship was easy and I got a decent price. Paul was a great courier and I was very pleased with the overall experience. Will consider again.

shipping engine dyno system

Uship saved me at least 600 dollars over what the other guy was getting for shipping quotes! And it was picked up and dropped off with a liftgate. Thanks!

Great First Experience

I purchased a 1960 Oldsmobile hood which the seller claimed could be shipped via Greyhound. It unfortunately was too big. I tried UPS, but they were never satisfied with the packaging. Although they never said, it seemed like they would only be satisfied with a full box or crate. For crying out loud, it's a solid piece of metal, not a Ming vase! Fortunately I discovered uShip. The hood arrived saf ...

First Time Long Distance Buyer

I've never bought anything that I couldn't take with me, so was very uncertain of the whole process. Myerstrucking explained what they would do, how they would do it, and kept us informed every step of the way. Our used quad arrived on the promised date, a bit earlier in the day than promised (which was a good thing), with absolutely no damage whatsoever. I was out of the state, so my wife rece ...

Transport of furniter

Good experience overall. The shipper was excellent. Happy wih number of bids received. Found the site a little hard to navigate and find things but resolved it. Will use uShip again and recommend others!

4 item deliveered in new jersy

Very good driver and his companey,the goods was delivered in good condition and on time. I will like to use them again.

Shipped a 144 lb 44" X 44" glass coffee table

Due to my parents moving, I decided to take their glass coffee table which needed to be shipped from New York to Colorado. After a professional mover quoted a bid that was ridiculously expensive, I found U Ship online and decided to give it a try. I received several bids within 12 hours and chose a mover who happened to be leaving the New York area later that same week and was making a stop in Co ...

Furniture shipment

This was the first time I used Uship. Very good experience. 5 stars to Vic. I will use his company again. The cost to ship and deliver met my companies budget. The furniture arrived in perfect condition. And most of all my customer is very pleased.

Great Tool

Its a great tool...! Totally recommend it as I found a good deal on here for my move which otherwise could have never been possible. Cheers....! DJ

First time Shipper, Went Great!

This was my first time using this service. I was a little nervous after reading a few bad stories online. It is scary to trust thousands of dollars in goods with a total stranger driving away. We were moving delicate appliances also. We ended up going with the first bid we got, though we received plenty. Many responses struck me as professional, capable and ready to do the job. We chose Jeff an ...

Jacobsen Turfcat

I needed this tractor shipped from Portlant CT to Lake Villa,Il and RMJS trucking came through. They were on time and kept in communication with both parties. I would use them again..

Family Heirloom

Shipping some items can be very challenging when you don't have accounts with large firms. Uship seems to be a great brokerage service for the little guy with an occasional shipment that won't fit well with big companies. My Grandfather passed away in the early 1960's. My only memories of him were sitting in this chair. I was happy to find an affordable way to get it shipped over 2,000 miles ...

Terrific experience

I needed to ship some furniture from Chicago to my brother in Connecticut. When I found UShip, I was pleased with how easy it was and how transparent the marketplace and bidding process was. It was terrific. My vendor, Adam Brooks of Brooks Transport couldn't have been more flexible, trustworthy and accomodating. The fact is, I booked the shipment in March yet due to being out of count ...

Entertainment Center Delivery

Really like it when a bidder comes in the center and is very flexible. They bid, I accepted, and they picked up the next day all the way from GA. Came straight to my house, went straight to the destination house in SC. Note: Local movers cannot do that. So that was very impressive!! Really admire the motivation and dedication the team demostrated with getting the job done with care. Job was succes ...

shipping electronic collator for printing field

i am pleased to have found uship. the experience of finding just the right person for the time, communication, and money was worth it for me. i will use the service again, and recommend for your shipping needs. thank you

First time user

uShip proved to be both easy to use and cost effective. The process is transparent and helped to save me time and money. I would definitely use uShip again. LDM International was my service provider, and they in turn contracted FedEx freight. FedEx dropped the ball repeatedly on pickup, but LDM had great customer service and made me feel better about the whole experience. I needed a ...

A Surprise Purchase in Austin has a Happy Ending in NJ!

We were in Austin for a combined vacation/conference/family visit and never imagined we would buy furniture. Well low and behold we stopped in on a great shop - Uncommon Goods on South Congress St. in Austin and found a great modern sideboard/bookcase for a very fair price. But we knew shipping costs would prove prohibitive. The shop owner agreed, but suggested that we try Uship.com. This was new ...

Rolls Royce engine to France

Quick response to my shipping request through USHIP, Jones was not only the best price but also the quickest delivery to the dock in New Jersey. Very good communication and follow through. Thanks for a job well done. Brian @ Formula Automotive formulaautomotive.com

uShip experience

I was shipping a few miscellaneous items from my parents' home to my new apartment. The shipper I met on uShip worked out great.

Positive Shipping Experience - Floor Buffers

Very professional shipper. He was on-time for the pick-up and delivery. The shipper was patient as I was a little late to the delivery sight. He never complained or made me feel as if I was causing an inconvenience. I was extremely pleased with the entire shipping process and would use the shipper again. Thanks for a great experience. RT

Set your price

Last year the median price for the same shipment was ... $880+ - no way I would have ever paid that. I put down that I would pay up to $325. I had takers but ended up not shipping. This year, the median price for the same shipment was $370. What happened to the other $500 since last year? WE happened. Give the price you can pay, within the limits of fairness. If no one accepts, then you kno ...

I saved big with uShip!

I had been looking for a specific color hardtop for my Jeep Wrangler for two years. When I finally found one in my price range, it was 500 miles away. I assumed shipping such a bulky item would be prohibitive, and I figured I was out of luck. On the seller's suggestion, I tried uShip and had several quotes by the next day. When the bidders started competing for the job, the price went to a reas ...

Amazing experience with my U Ship provider!!!!

Going into this blind, and relying on faith directly after the loss of my Father was no east undertaking. My shipment consisted of a pricy washer dryer set, and several boxes. After looking through feedback for several of your providers, as well as checking prices, I settled on Mike Hill (Hillobit), to ship my items from New Jersey to Florida. I could not be more pleased with the service ...

Miehle Vertical shipment

Press was located in Missouri and the price from freightquote was a bit more than I could afford. Halvorsen Express was the low bid and was able to pick up and deliver the press faster than I had expected. There was absolutely no damage to the equipment and I was informed of pick up and delivery. All in all I was very please with the service they provided.

Fragile aircraft wings shipped

I purchased a set of fabric covered experimental aircraft wings at the other end of the country. The price was great, but how could something like that be shipped for a reasonable price, without having to pay someone to crate them up for a lot of money. Uship is the only way! I used it for other odd thing like a set of aluminum floats, which are just a bulky and fragile as a set of wings. Every t ...

couldn't have had a better experience

needed to ship an antique filing cabinet from anaheim to las vegas antique dealer actually recommended u ship service i would have had to rent a truck, pay mileage and gas and brave the freeways of california to pick it up myself instead i was referred to a service that put me in touch with a multitude of providers from white glove to blanket shippers. they brought the bids to me and i got to ...

UShip is a great tool, overall experience has been excellent

This is my second time using UShip; Excellent sight, user friendly, and great way to save money. The providers I have used have been highly professional and willing to work with me on all levels. Takes the guesswork out of shipping; Saves the user money, and gives you peace of mind to know who you are dealing with. Thanks UShip!

CNC MACHINE TRANSPORT.

A very expensive machine had to be moved from Chicago to Naples. I purchased it from a bank sale, so the price was very good. Uship is very easy to use and it works good for me when I need to ship items. I don't have to baby sit the site. I get nice texts alerting me that someone has a question or bid. I probably saved 1000 on this load using uship. Bullseye transport did a great job s ...

Quick & Easy Shipping for a reasonable cost

After my Dad passed we cleared his house to sell it and brought items we wanted to keep to our house. My daugther wanted a long wooden buffet but it would not fit in the back of her truck to take from Chicago to Kentucky. I found uship online and the service was very intuitive. You put a description of your shipping item (+ weight, measurements), where you want it to go, where to pick up and ...

Organising from Australia

Uship helped me organise sending an item from Northern California to Southern California from the other side of the world, It was easy and cheap.

Gulf sign pole

Outstanding shipper , had item picked the day I accepted bid and to me in 3 as promised. What more can you ask for. Thanks again

Snowmobile Shipping went very well

I bought a snowmobile out of state and needed it shipped and the dealer's shipping fell through. I was tasked with lining up my own shipping on a budget that I had already paid. I hesitantly found this site and followed the instructions on shipping from there to here. In the first hour I had several bids and that is where this transaction came to be. This couple ships throughout the upper Midw ...

Perfect Delivery

As a first time user of this site I was hesitant at first, but quickly realized I was dealing with a professional. The delivery was early and in perfect condition.

Motorcycle from FL to PA

Great price, Easy to work with. Had bought a Honda Shadow motorcycle on Ebay that was in Florida and needed it to get to Philadelphia, PA. Discovered Uship for the first time and being a student needed a cheap way of getting it here. This shipper offered the right price, was very adaptable with dates to pick up and drop off, and worked around my school schedule. It was shipped on an open flatbed t ...

Uship and service provider

I had a very heavy mixer that need moved. There was no way I could lift,or move it. uship,and their service provider moved it for me, and they did a wonderful job. I will use uship again when needed. Thanks to all, Barb

Transport

There were heirloom items of extremely sentimental value. They arrived in excellent condition. Don did a fantastic job!

Polaris Ranger

I purchased a Polaris Ranger on Ebay from a store in San Diego, CA. I live in Montgomery, AL. My bid price was matched by the shipper (Lady K Transport), and he picked up my shipment within 2 days. It was delivered across the country in less than 5 days. This was a new experience for me, and I had no problems. My shipper was constantly in touch via email and text and ensured safe transport. If I ...

marble table top

Took excellent care of a delicate object. Were communicative regarding the situation of where it was, etc. When the truck came and it wasn't in there - they were very apologetic and reimbursed me appropriately. Thanks!!

Lawn tractor shipment

This was our first shipment using uShip and boy did we hit a home run booking with Farmers Transporting. We needed a lawn tractor ship from Maryland to Arizona and Eric and Ron did a fabulous and professional job the whole way. From the booking to delivery, Farmers Transporting took care of it all. Excellent communication! Eric kept us posted to ensure a smooth pickup and delivery. The G.P.S. trac ...

my first time with uship

Didn't really know what to expect from the website, but took a chance on it and glad I did. Everything went well, and price was reasonable. Jaime was easy to work with, obviously cared about doing everthing right and taking care not to damage the furniture. Will certainly use him again if the need arises.

Returned a giant stuffed animal!

When our second child was born, we received a generous gift of a huge stuffed animal from FAO Schwartz. Unfortunately, we owned the very same one already! We had to pay return shipping so I tried uShip and saved 50% vs. FedEx and UPS. However, when my courier delivered the item back to the Vegas store - she discovered that it had closed down! (a fact which FAO neglected to tell us when we called ...

Good experience shipping antique furniture.

Blanket wrap service means they completey cocoon your furniture to keep it from getting scratched. These folks were very nice and did a good job at a reasonable price. They took almost a month to get my stuff across the country, but then, I had told them it was no hurry. The most annoying thing was that once I sighned my contract, they were really bad about communication. I expected them to ca ...
