Made it very easy and affordable

I was originally shocked when I went to the big shipping companies such as FedEx, UPS, Schneider, etc. to receive a freight quote that included a lift gate delivery. UShip made it very easy to find a reliable and must better priced delivery that fit my time line and budget.

Flooring

I was shipping very expensive flooring half way across the nation. UShip lead me to a fast, reliable provider who handled the floor with care. They delivered the flooring sooner than expected and had no problems upon arrival. In addition, UShip saved me $1,200 over what the flooring company wanted to charge!

UShip needs improved!

I probably will not use UShip again. I had some farm equipment shipped from Montana to Washington state and found the UShip experience totally frustrating. The shipper did well and I was happy with him and his service. I do not like the extremes USip goes to in order to prevent communication between the provider and the user until Uship gets their fee. I had things I wanted to speak to the provid ...

very good experience overall

I was a bit skeptical since it was my first time using Uship. But this will definitely be my shipping preference from on.

Auction pick-up

We purchased a truckload of items from an independent auction 187 miles from home. Uship enabled us to move our goods well below the cost of utilizing an independent freight line.

vacuum tank

Being a first time shipper I was a little skeptical about using uShip. I was seriously considering driving 1500+ miles each way to get the vacuum tank myself. After receiving the bids that were made, I could see that I could not save anything by driving the 3000+ miles to get it myself and I could use that time in better ways at home.

50 Chairs is excercise!

Selling restaurant equipment here in Seattle has its challenges sometimes. Especially when you need to get 50 chairs to Walla Walla Washington that are NOT boxed or palletized. Most freight companies won't even accept my business. Uship worked out fantastic. A local courier service wanted $680.00 to deliver. I posted the job on Uship and accepted a bid for $350.00 the next day. That evening, all w ...

Well done

I bought a post driver (that works behind a tractor) from a company in scotland and when it was built ifound out delivery was not part of the deal,didnt fancy 800 mile round trip from kent to collect it so browsed the web for hauiers ,found uship entered details and bigal0772 won the bid. JOB SORTED

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

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 ...

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.

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

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

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 ...

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!

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 ...

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 ...

Engine Shipment

My advise is to try to find a "little guy" who can take your shipment, the freight brokers really can't guarentee anything or make anything happen. JMHO

BMW Engine

I needed an engine shipped from the bay area to Oregon. I placed a listing on uShip and immediately received bids. I chose the lowest bid and I couldn't be happier. Thanks uShip!

very happy

was shipping sports apparel back to the manufactor. received bid very fast. showed up the next day and delivered very timely. Will use them again

Not Rain, Snow nor Budget...

Dedicated independent shipper stayed in close contact as he fought his way through severe storms & delays. It's nice to see there are independents who are willing to ship things for individuals who can't budget a corporate shipping rate... a new day is here... we all should feel empowered. uShip opens up many new possibilities.

Saved a bundle.

Had been quoted $1500 to ship a machine to me in Indiana from California. Got many quotes on uShip for under $500, and final deal went through at $470. Logistics were a little troublesome dealing with my schedule, but everything came together well in the end.

uShip experience

It was a great pleasure doing business with you. Looking forword to do it again in the future! Thank you Jack

Great experience

This was my first encounter with uShip. Not being an experienced shipper at all I was very leary. I found uShip easy to use. The reviews I was able to read and the profiles of the providers helped me to overcome my fears of using such a service. I saved 30% in frieght cost by using uShip instead of a common carrier. I knew EXACTLY when my shipment was to arrive. Not "24-36" hour notice. ...

2 pieces of machinery

I looked and looked for someone to move the remaining pieces of machinery for my sawmill. I was getting bids for full semi loads to haul, but thanks to Uship, was finally able to find Halvorson Express who moved it reasonably for me.

excellent service

This was my second uship experience and both have been great. I had seven pallets of stone vaneer shipped to my home that is under construction.

uShip worked very well for me.

I needed to ship some industrial equipment to Texas from Chicago. It was a small machine on a single pallet. uShip made it easy to get quotes and book the shipment for about half what I would have probably paid with any other service. My provider was professional and punctual. The overall process was very easy. Will definitely consider using uShip again.

Pleased with USHIP

I am pleased with uship. It is a good service at a reasonable price and provides many options when shipping.

Carpet Cleaning Equipment

Mike I was totally impressed with your service and with your down home personality some thing missing form many businesses. Your price was very fair, you delivered on time and did your job as you promised.I would say to anyone who reads this feedback, This is a man you can trust. I have placed you at the top of my favorites list and look forward to doing business with you again

Ebay Item Seller not willing to Ship

When I won bid, PK bid on shipping and was within my budget and timing was quick. He was polite and kept very good care of my item! Would recommend and use again!

Pilates Chair

Jason was able to pick up an item on short notice. He called when he picked up the item and was even able to deliver it to my house instead of the businss. He called me 3 times to make sure we were on the same page. I will use him again.

skid steer shipment

I had a positive experience and would recommend using Uship to others. Needed a ramped trailer to haul new skid steer from dealer to the farm.

Small Machine Gets New Home Thanks To U-Ship!

I had a small machine in a cabinet that needed to go from New Hampshire to North Carolina. Our budget was tight and we did not think we would get the item there because of cost. However U-Ship has now come thru for us on two occasions. Both times we got good quotes from reliable companies who got the job done. Our Company will always go the U-Ship route. They have the connections and know ...

Large Load of Fabric

I was bidding on a large load of fabric that was in Florida and I am in Mississippi. There was no way I could go get it all myself and to send it UPS or FedEx would have been outrageously expensive so the seller suggested UShip. I filled out my UShip load information, took bids on my shipment and selected the shipper that best fit with my needs. I did not however pick the cheapest bid. The cheapes ...

Restrictive time slots met!

A co that was eager to please and could both collect and deliver in two limited time periods seperated by 6 days. Excellent

Two parking lot paint sprayers Michigan to Tenn.

I needed a shipper to haul two parking lot paint sprayers from Michigan to Tenn. I received a bid for $130.00 to haul these I was making the deal with the buyer and the shipper waited a day till I made the deal final and I accepted the bid. The shipper kept in touch about en route to my house to let me know how far he was from me. When he arrived Chuck was very nice my son and Chuck loaded the ...

Shipping a sign

Bought a large item - needed it shipped - posted it on uship - bids came quickly - booked shipment - no complications - arrived safely at reasonable cost. a1 transaction.

Outstanding first experience w/ uShip

I had a truck crane shipped from Minnesota to South Carolina. I would definitely recommend this website to anyone in need of shipping services.

Doors Will Travel

7 Doors from Bristol to Plymouth ebay Purchase Good experience of using the site. Not sure how much I saved using uShip, but I was happy with the amount charged. ( Though you uShip seem to take a high commission 20 % approx for providing just the websit network ) The delivery by ' goldwing1969 ' a 2 man team was successfully & professionally completed within 3 days. I would use ...

Semper Fi Hauling

I choose Mike and Semper Fi Hauling not just because he had a very competitive price, but I also liked the name of his company. I always try to choose a veteran over other companies when possible. I quickly found out that Mike exceeded my expectations.

My first shipment was a BREEZE!

What can I say. This was a great money saver. I was very nervous at first but the shipper walked me through every step. I was even able to track my box on the internet. I have always dealt with the two big shipping companys (ups & fed) but I won't do that anymore. I saved hundreds of dollars and these guys gave me 4 star service. I own a motel and will use this service to save a bundle!!! I am so ...

great experience shipping my transmission flush machine

I got the lowest price I could find, fast pick up and delivery and did not have to palletise or even box my machine. Thanks to Rick rtnenterprises. I do think uship fees are a bit much $50 out of $290 for doing nothing and their little mail in rebate is a joke making you think you are getting a good deal for jumping through way too many hoops.

great worked out better then exspected

Uship and They carrier B & J transport was just great easy at every step will recommend both for future shippment either mine or to anyone asking for shipping services

Perfect

I shipped two large flat files and I found USHIP fast and easy. I bought the files on Craigslist, so everything was site unseen, but it all worked perfectly. I love USHIP and will use you again. Thanks!

Ashtrays

Uship thru one of its partners Uqccorp saved me from looking incompetent with my customer by going beyond what was expected. These guys mae a sunday delivery at no additional charge when i explained to them that Saturday was not an option becaue the customers crew had taken a sick day. Will adefinately use these guys again. Great price...great service....Definatelly Happy!

Package finaly left

Had issues shipping our pallet, it had to go on a truck and they tried to keep sending it by truck to air and by truck again. That went back and forth three times, finally I made it clear that it could only go ground, they made some calls and two days later the package left and made it to its destination.

Move of studio recording equipment a success on Uship!

I was able to use Uship succesfully to complete my Shipment. Chuck from Anson Transport did an excellent job of moving my studio recording mixing console. Being that it is huge (over 6 feet long), heavy, and fragile- it was important to find a carrier that could take proper care of it. Chuck shrink wrapped the unit and packed it amongst shipping blankets to keep it snug and safe. I was amazed at h ...

Lots of responses - but a clear choice

I was moving a telescoping radio tower that is 23 feet long (nested), 23 inches on a side (triangular) and weighs 750 pounds. I needed it moved from one residential location to another about 40 miles away. I received a lot of responses from people who were curious and interested in the business, but the provider I chose stood out - he responded confidently, had done this before and his pri ...

Great experience shipping my freight

I needed to ship 2 large items from Florida to Georgia in a short amount of time. I looked at renting a truck and also looked at hiring a national company to move the freight. Both options were cost-prohibitive. Then I found USHIP by accident while searching the WEB. I entered my information and was delighted to receive several bids below market price. The USHIP site was easy to navigate and ...
