Uship experience

Since this was my first time having anything shipped and having never used the site before, I made the mistake of giving and asking for phone numbers. I should have been more careful to look at the rules, etc. I received several very good bids and was pleased with the one I accepted.

j-29 San Diego-Detroit

My bid was to move a J-29 sailboat from San Diego to Detroit. Thomas' bid was competitive but not the lowest. After looking at his saftey record with USDOT I accepted the bid. The pick up went smoothly as did the drop off. Thomas made excellent time and my boat arrived in great shape.I highly recommend Thomas for anyone needing to transport a boat.

20ft thunder jet on trailer

i had a boat shipped from oregon to missouri. i was apprehensive about letting a stranger tow my new boat but the first time i talked to bobby i was at ease. i read all his feedback and it was all extremely positive. i would never hesitate to use him again or recommend him to anybody! he knows you are excited to be getting whatever is being shipped to you and he is completely selfless. he kee ...

Boat Shipping

Retrieving our new boat was going to involve wear/tear on our truck, 3 days of our life, and a lot of incurred expense. Putting the job out to bid and leaving it to someone else was the best thing we did. In the end, it only cost $300 more for us to have it shipped by people who do this all of the time. Rather than sitting in a truck for 30+ hours getting the new boat, we were able to stay at ho ...

Drag Boat

I bought an old drag boat off ebay- I needed it shipped so I put an ad on UShip, Dion was the first one to bid- he was in the area and said he could pick it up that day, he contacted the other party and made the arrangements. I waited.. He kept in contact with me everyday. The trailer had a blow out , he made arrangements with a local authorities and they watched the boat while he went and got the ...

excellent experience

all positive. i was concerned not having done this before. tony picked up on time and delivered on time as promised. the boat arrived without a mark on it. i would highly recommend tradewinds transportation to anyone who needs a boat hauled... great job

Great experience shipping our boat

We have relocated across and needed to have our boat shipped. At first we were a little weary of looking on uship. We are so glad we did. We saved several hundred dollars and the process was so easy. We would definitely recommend uship and our carrier to anyone.

First time Shipper

I am in the boat business and our local truckers are very unreliable . We tried U Ship for a critical delivery and was pleased with the price and the service . Will continue to use U Ship , and reccomend to others .

Boat Shipment

Jorge did a great job. No complaints. Trucked a 20 foot center console from Mary Esther, FL to Ocean City, Md. No problems.

Very smooth operation.

I shipped a 31' Sea Ray from Hilton Head to Annapolis. Peter picked up my boat on time and delivered it on time. Even though he had to wait nearly two hours at my marina for them to offload the boat, he took that in stride without complaint. He kept me informed of his progress with the delivery. I would definitely recommend him and use his services again.

Shipping Boat

We had an excellent experience with our shipper. They picked the boat up on time. There was plenty of communication. They recognized the trailer tires were low so they filled them up. They were patient when we struggled with getting the boat out of the water (wife beached it in shallow water). They delivered it on time and in tact.

Great Boat Shipping

Shipped my 2006 Four Winns 37' boat from Florida to Michigan for the summer. Jim, from Sundance Express was a true professional. Took care of my boat as it was his. You couldn't ask for more. I won't ship with anyone else again. Jim, YOU ARE THE BEST and you have a life customer. Larry

21.5 ft Boat from FL to VA

Needed to get a boat I bought online from FL to VA. The dealer was charging $1400! So, I said I would get a transporter. I found a certified and insured shipper here at uShip and saved myself $800. I did have to wait a few extra days, but it was well worth the wait for the money saved. I definitely intend to use uShip again and have already recommended the site to others.

Excellent experience!

I was shipping a pontoon boat across the country, and was looking at uShip, so that I would not have to take time off from work to do it myself. I found the uShip site very helpful, and although the 1st shipper I selected did not work out,as he was very short and rude, I was not hesitant to work with Mike - He was extremely open and communicative - He had my best interest in mind. The investment ...

BOAT TRANSPORT

I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE BANK AT MY END AND BOB, MY TRANSPORT CARRIER, ADJUSTED HIS SCEDULE TO SUIT ME AND EVERYTHING FROM THEN ON IN WENT LIKE CLOCKWORK. IF I SHIP A BOAT AGAIN I WILL CERTAINLY CALL BOB.I CAN ONLY THANK USHIP FOR GETTING ME HIS DETAILS.

New boat moved - no problems

It will always be about finding the right shipper, my end experience was good. At the end, a fair price was paid for a safe shipment.

Great service at a very fair price

Larry and his company did a great job of scheduling and delivering my 27 foot Sea Ray boat. I would recommend Larry to anyone.

Boat Shipment

Uship was a helpful resource and resulted in a great shipment price. Paul and Jay were excellent and I recommend them. My boat arrived right on time and in great shape. Puala and Jay were very friendly, professional, and responsive, staying in contact throughout the process.

Shipment of Boat

This was my first shipment, and I was very nervous as to the legitimacy of any shipper. I can say I was overwhelmed by how outstanding my shipper was. But would recommend as an extra piece of mind to all those in my situation I would have liked to see a certain sort of verification service carried out by UShip .. this may cost the shipper money to get certain checks carried out but this would make ...

U-ship

I was happy with my overall U-Ship experience. I did find checking and accessing into my current and past feed backs in my profile to be difficult. I did also see that some of the service providers did not seem to see all the information I put in my profile causing some confusion. I felt U-Ship should have been up front from the start that they would require a credit card to confirm the order and ...

What a great Transaction getting our boat to Canadian Border

We contracted VinnyVince69 to haul a boat from Reno, NV to the Canadian border(sweetgrass montana). He was to pick up the boat at 10pm in Reno, but around dinner time when the bank closed we became aware that the wire transfer to the seller in the USA did not go through, therefor could not release the boat to shipper. Seller agreed to release it in the morning if we could get the bank to confirm t ...

Paula and Greg at Team Transport

They made moving my Sea Ray from MN to Colorado a breeze. They picked up the boat ontime and keep me posted throughout the trip. They are an excellent to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to move a boat. Great experience for me and I will use them again.

Yamaha 250HP Outboard Motor

Great experience shipping a loose 250HP Outboard Motor. Motor did not have a crate, so Shawn very carefully placed the motor on padding in the back of his pick up truck, and strapped the motor down to prevent movement. He was punctual, professional and courteous.

Boat Haul

Good communication prior to service.On time. A little problem getting the boat from block to trailer. Cautiously drove to ramp. Waited at the ramp for us while we got a part that was needed for the boat.Launched the boat and the wind was so strong it was pushing the boat to shallow water. Wayne went in the water and pushed the boat.Thank you.

Long distance shipping of 17' Chris Craft Ski Boat

I shipped a 1959 wooden Chris Craft on a trailer, from Tulsa, OK to McCall, ID. The boat had been sold to a new owner who stored the boat at the McCall Boat Works. Based on their experience with uShip, the owners of McCall Boat Works suggested I use uShip for obtaining bids to transport the boat. This was a first time experience for me and it proved to be an excellent way to find a quality serv ...

Sailboat

The uship experience was just great! It is really a great service getting shippers and transporters together.

Great boat delivery

Great service - highly recommend them . They delivered my boat on time with great communication throughout.

boat

when Simon accepted this project, it was to be a simple tow job. It turns out that the trailer was not road worthy, so Simon bought a lumber rack and loaded the boat on top of his truck. What a great guy!

Boat Hauling from Phoenix, AZ to Alberta, Canada

Shipping made easy and affordable. This is the second time I used uShip and have had a great experience both times. Had my boat hauled up to Canada the first time and to the US/Canada border the second time. The last time, I bought the boat in Phoenix on a Wednesday and went on uShip that night. I accepted a bid on Thursday, he picked up the boat Saturday and I met him at the US/Canada border on ...

Eh

Wasn't as great ad I wanted it to be. WAY too many illegitimate people. BUT in thr end I got my boat by the weekend.

New Boat

Kaz and group were great to work with. Was very exciting getting our 1st crusier to her new home. Hope to put ,"Sassy Sirenis" in the water next week.Looking forward to Marina life !! Nothing I love more than Boats, Beaches, and the water. Thanks from Deb & Ger.

Boat delivery

Our boat was delivered as promised. We thank you Wayne. uShip worked great for us and we would definitely us this service again.

Great experience!

These guys were great. I booked the shipment at 11pm on a Wednesday night. They drove 500 miles the next day and picked it up at 2pm, then brought it to NH 800 miles away for delivery the next morning. Could not have been easier or smoother.

Maristar 230 VRS

Smooth access to multiple shippers through an easily navigable platform. Will recommend to friends and use in the future.

Pontoon boat delivery

it is over all a good experience; except the waiting for bid part.Some don't response right away and after some waiting time(about 4-5 days), I got a few bids.... after I accepted one of the bids; there were more bids calling and emailing which is good but not to my benefits anymore; I just wish they will response faster and complete for a better price. Once, the bid is accepted you have to pay a ...

21' Four Winns

Purchased a boat in MA and needed it shipped to NC. The dealership recommended their hauler, but their price seemed way too high. I signed on to the UShip site and listed the shipment. The process was quick and I received many competetive bids. After accepting the bid I made contact with the service provider. Everything went very smooth & the whole process exceeded my expectations. I'll use ...

uship is great for connecting... but

one misleading item about uship is they lead you to believe that the biggest part of the deposit you pay goes to the shipper. that is not true. for instance on a 2400 ship fee, the $33 fee AND the $250 fee all goes to uship. it is not like ebay where a small fraction goes to them.

My First Time!

I needed to get a Boat and Trailer, I purchased in Indiana; home to Colorado. A friend suggested uShip. I went on line, without knowing what I was doing. Put my bid in, filled out and told too much(address)got warned(uShip) not to put in an address(How was I to know). If you ship something, they need to know where it's going! As always, Computer Geeks, make it harder than it should be. ...

On time and On Schedule

My Boat Started it's Haul in South Florida and ended in the Pacific Northwest. It was about as far away with in the U.S. one can get and the boat made a couple hours earlier than projected and I was pleased with the experience.

Shipped boat from Houston to Chicago

I found the uShip services to be very helpful. I really like being able to float my services needs, receive multiple proposal and then review the many different bidders credentials to help me choose a provider. There is the ability to interact with the bidders to get more information that helped me as a first time user of cross country shipping services.

Shipping a boat

The shipper I usually work with quoted me a price and then a week before he was to pick up my 26 foot sailboat boat he upped the price by 1400.00. I cancelled. When I cancelled he warned me, "Don't go with uShip". I had never heard of uShip before he said that. I have to disagree. I would never go with anything else but uShip now. I can read reviews of the shipper who I am working with from ...

Small Sailboat and trailer...WA to MS

Very pleased with the UShip process. I got my small sailboat and its trailer moved across country both loaded on a large flat bed trailer. Uship allowed me to shop for a fantastic rate, and view feedback on the provider before comitting to the shipment. I will look to Uship for any of my transportation needs in the future.

A good long day!

It was a windy day (32mph winds)and our 32' Nordic Tug needed to travel 202 miles to reach our dock. Mark pulled up and marked our boat with flags and wide load signage. He expressed that he was very experienced and we shouldn't be worried about anything on the windy day. Experiece proved that big shipments can still be done safely in not the best weather. Everything worked out perfectly and witho ...

Great expreience shipping my motor

I checked the reviews of this company and the number of shipments they had made and decided to use them. I was very happy with the results. Everything went as promised.

Learned a lot about UShip and shipping

I bought a 25' SeaRay boat in Michigan and needed it shipped 2500 miles out to me to be picked up at the border in Blaine. After accepting a bid way back in Nov. 2009, my original shipper fell through after I had been VERY flexible with getting my boat out here. He basically bailed on me after 2 months of delaying when he said he could get it done. So I listed it back on UShip and didn't have muc ...
