uShip

We wanted a couch shipped from Florida to Georgia. We looked into traditional freight shipping and companies wanted anywhere from $750 to $1500. The couch would have to be crated and shipped and it was not going to be worth the effort. I found uShip on the Internet and posted my bid request of $350. I received over 10 bids and was able to find a great vendor (Southeast Transport) that picked u ...

Awesome online service

It took a few listings but the 2nd shipper i found did the job and i was overall really happy with the price and service! no unexpected costs and so simple to navigate. I'd definitely use uship again! - Jen

Great service, very pleased

Dave picked up a wardobe in Ipswich and delivered to Reading on time and in perfect condition. Great communication throughout, a very good value for money service. Thank you.

Great team, would definately use again!

This father son team transported a new leather sectional and chair for me from Houston to New Orleans. Items were blanket and shrink wrapped, arrived in perfect condition. Both guys were very nice, attentive and did a thorough job bringing the items into my home and setting up. We had a little hiccup pinning down the delivery time at my house due to weather but communication was good and it all ...

Sofa to be shipped

I sold a small, wood, antique sofa frame to a customer in Kentucky, but needed to get it to her in a timely manner from my home in Connecticut. I listed it on Uship and with in 24 hours I was contacted by Dave who said he could have it there within a week. He gave me a bid and I counter offered, my customer was paying for the delivery and would only pay so much. Dave accepted my offer and we made ...

Rocking chair

I had an oversized antique rocking chair that was impossible to find a container for and very few wanted to ship at a price I could afford. If they shipped it they wanted me to deliver it packaged. Michael not only shipped it, he picked it up from my home, boxed it and shipped it within a couple days from California to Michigan. He was also the lowest bidder on the transaction, yet his service ...

shipped household furniture

We had a great experience with this shipper. He kept in contact with us and was flexible to our needs.

Delivery of tv cabinet

The Cabinet was large and heavy. It was picked up when asked and delivered the next day in perfect condition. I'd work with them again

Choosing Uship

We needed a dining room table and six chairs delivered from Bend, Oregon to Seattle, WA. This was a unique handcrafted piece but getting it home almost kept us from buying it. Our biggest fear was having to drive down ourselves to get it and renting a truck to do so. We tried uShip with honestly very little hope of success and some trepidation of going this route. I also felt my asking price was l ...

USHIP was very helpful

I went to Google and put transportation of furniture and USHIP came up. I had no idea that this service existed. I asked several questions because the bids that I was receiving were twice the average and plus and they answered promptly each time and were very helpful.

bicoastal relocation: from san diego california to small town in new jersey

We had funitures, books, and baby stuff in a two-bed room to ship from san diego california to a small town englewood, new jersey. At the beginning, we were planning to rent a truck and troller to tow my SUV. The budget easily topped 4k. One of my friends recommended uship.com. He had good experiences because he used uship service in a short trip relocation, whithin east coast. When I started lis ...

Solid Oak Mission Panel Bed

The bed of our dreams! After two furniture makers discontinued the line, after 8 years of looking we found our bed online at Craigslist in Milwaukee. We had to have it! Uship made it soooo easy! Milwaukee to Boston and in one week our perfect bed was all ours!

Mattress & Box Spring

I needed to get a mattress and box spring from San Francisco to LA in less than a week for as little money as possible. I went onto uShip.com and I got the bid I was looking for within a couple of hours. I ended up with an amazing deal with a great company/service provider. They were polite, fast, cheap and efficient. I saved hundreds of dollars and I am 100% satisfied with uShip. This is the ...

first UShip

My first experience with UShip was with a piece of antique furniture. The seller recommended uShip, and I had a good experience. I'm glad he warned me not to fall for the initial high-ball bids but to wait for more reasonable ones. I like the feedback system to find who is and isn't good. I picked a good quality service and was pleased. I'd use uShip again!

Shipping two sofas

I highly recommend uship. This is my second time using this service. I am an interior designer who often buys expensive items from one coast and transports to another. This venue allows the most economical way of transport while providing more often than not more secure shipping methods of transport than larger moving companies.

table and chairs

This site sucks. i just typed a nice feedback story and it deleted itself. Not writing it all out again

Shipping furniture

I wanted to ship 3 pieces of furniture, and it was difficult to find anyone who would ship them, together or individually. They were not large. I placed a bid on USHIP for what it was worth to me to ship the items, and after three bids, Specialty Transport matched by price, and then performed as well as I could have expected. I am extremely satisfied, and I will use the service again.

Cedar Chest

My friend in Louisville, KY, held onto a cedar chest that my late parents got for me in 1997, when I graduated from high school. I lived in KY for one year then moved back home to Georgia, but was unable to bring back large furniture. I never really thought I'd ever get the chest back, but my friend said she was moving and couldn't keep it any longer, and she knew my parents got it for me so she ...

GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH MCALLES

I was shipping a very heavy iron patio set with 13 pieces. The buyer purchased the item, and needed shipment (90 miles) so I helped her arrange. Always used UShip great experience. We saved the time and money of doing the shipment ourselves. Mitch was extremely responsive and professional right from the outset. Would definitely use UShip again.

Simple and straighforward service

Found UShip through a trawl of the web to find a courier to bring a ebay win to me. Within an hour of listing had my first bid to collect item: I held my nerve and waited for a bid then viewed the feedback of the bidding companies to make my decision. I chose well as the item arrived promptly and in perfect condition. Uship is a one stop shop that makes getting anything from anywhere to anywhere ...

Shipment of Furniture

My husband and I needed to buy new furniture for our living room. The furniture we had purchased before retiring was too large for our new home and not really comfortable for us. Our daughter could use the furniture, so we had planned to pack up a trailer and take it to her in Georgia; however, since other members of my family had used U-Ship, we decided to try that first. I feel we saved time ...

Saved 150 Bucks on Shipping 2 Chairs from FL to AZ

I found that using the Uship "Directory" was the better way, though it took a few hours. I had bought 2 upholstered chairs from a seller in Florida, on ebay. I needed someone to pickup the chairs from the seller's store, wrap them to protect them during shipment, and bring them to my house in Arizona. I posted this on Uship. I got no reasonable bids during the first 24 hours. I turned down th ...

Recent shipment of items from Florida to Michigan

This was the first time we registered on U-Ship and we were pleased with the courtesy and professionalism of B&E Solutions and the care that was taken to deliver our goods. We saved $$$ using U-Ship as our long distance carrier. We definitely would use U-Ship and would recommend it to our family and friends. :-)

Dining Room Sluite

I wanted to ship a dining room suite which belonged to my late husband's mom to one of his daughters in Indiana from my home in Georgia. This is "family furniture" and I needed it to be protected all the way. I got many bids and, at first, thought that I would not be able to afford to ship it to her. When I received the bid from RIGHTWAY Trucking I knew it was a reality !!!! Ken Shippy made it ...

Great experience shipping a crib and mattress

I needed to ship a crib and mattress from just outside of Chicago to outside of Philadelphia quickly - within a week's time of posting the shipment on UShip. I picked BMC because it was not only the lowest bid but the time for pickup and delivery accommodated our schedules the best. I couldn't have been happier with Dave from BMC. He kept in constant communication regarding his ETA for pickup ...

my new sofa

I bought a corner sofa from an ebay seller, and tried many courier companies to collect and deliver, unfortunately no one got back to me, unfortunately during this time my father passed away, and i was ill so completing took a while, uship came to my rescue, and gave me the chance of a quick turnaround at a great price, many thanks to them.

ship

This a great service and can be very cost-saving versus traditional shipments. The bidding makes the experience competitive and all providers I have worked with have been very professional.

My first experience with U Ship

My first experience with U Ship I knew about this old bedroom chaise that was my grandmothers, inherited by one of my siblings and had been stored in my parents basement for years. I moved to knew home and thought of that chair. My sister said I could have it but my husband would not allow a lot of $ to get it from SLC to Colorado. I learned of U Ship from a shipper I contacted after trying ...

Great Service!

I had some items that I wanted to get to FL to my son's. He had just moved to a new house. The items had been his grandmother's and had a lot of sentimental value. I heard about Uship from someone that had stopped at a garage sale I was having. I decided to try it out and the rest is history. We were on a time schedule and I happened to be at my son's house when the furniture arrived all safe ...

cross country

We had 2 hand made old growth cypress benches and some chairs to move from S Louisiana to Central Coast California - I wanted something from LA with me here. I could not have done it without U-Ship who saved us approx $3000! and the entire process was easy and done without a hitch.

The delivery of my sofa by reddog

Several of the shippers were very difficult to deal with, but reddog was amazingly easy to work with. I have nothing but positives regarding the shipment of my sofa from New Jersey to Virginia. It was quick, and my sofa arrived in perfect condition. No complaints whatsoever. Reddog belongs at the top of uShips list of shippers.

Dining Table and 6 chairs

We needed to get the above from Georgia to Florida, from one family to another. We got great service and price--definitely worthwhile.

My weekend was made perfect by using Uship and finding the best courier ever!

After being let down by another courier this site was recommended to me by another company. After entering the details, I waited a while..no replies..but then looked around the site and notice I could ask to be considered..Great feature!! Within minutes of clicking I had a email, which turned out to be the best courier ever! At short notice he drove from Leeds, to North Yorkshire then down to ...

Excellent delivery of a massive cherry display cabinet

I needed two pieces delivered from two different addresses (just down the road from eachother). One piece was smaller, one was a massive super heavy display cabinet. Everything was organized perfectly, pieces picked up, I was notified throught the process, and pieces were then delivered to me. Excellent work! Highly recommended!

Single mom moving across the country

I spent more than a year planning this move right down to the last detail. When I came across u-ship I initially didn't think I could afford to pay a transport company. I was looking for the most cost effective way to get my personal items moved without going broke (as I had done this before in 2005). I was pleased to see bids coming in and being able to communicate with transporters to have qu ...

2 small wooden rockers

Definitely would use UShip again. Site was easy to work with and provided sufficient information. Service provider was great.

Satisfied with the movement of my household goods.

I moved from Phoenix to Santa Barbara for work. I wanted movers to move a one-bedroom apartment worth of stuff. I got a bid in my acceptable price range. I was able to find somebody who was able to accommodate my move dates and was flexible if need be. The mover was a hard working, nice guy. Will use uship for future moves and probably recommend it to others.

shipment for NC to CO

I was dreading having to move a few pieces of antique furniture from NC to Colorado, but Uship made it easy. My service provider was affordable and excellent -- thank you!

Harry's customer focus

I was shipping a couple of sofas, and needed to have them picked up before a new one was delivered. Despite the fact that Harry didn't have a shipment in my vicinity, he sent someone to make a special trip so I could have my sofas picked up in the time frame I needed! Above and beyond the call of duty!

Great experience

Rick did a great pick up and delivery of my items. He was in communication the entire time and very friendly. On time and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend and use again! Thanks!

I had a table shipped from OK to NYC: Fabulous!!

I am so happy to have come upon this site! Within 24 hours I received a bid I could afford. I was wary, at first, of using someone off the internet, but the company I chose did an amazing job bringing a table I bought all the way from Oklahoma City to New York City-- in pristine condition. Bravo!!! I will use uShip again, definitely.

delivery large bookshelves.

I had a listing for large bookshelves and included the dimensions and weight in the listing. I had a few offers from couriers, but they claimed they saw the listing for 'large bookshelves' but were unable to see the dimensions. Therefore the first courier had to cancel, as when I confirmed the size to him, he said it would not fit in the van. I listed the item again, including sizes and weight. ...

Great site, great service!

I recently had a high-end leather chair shipped from Boca Raton, FL to New Orleans, LA. This was an expensive ebay purchase and shipping costs were a factor. After about 2 weeks a good bid came in from a well-rated shipper (viper105). He was fantastic. He arranged the pickup of the chair with the seller and had it to me in 2 days. I couldn't have asked for better service from the shipper nor an ea ...

Moving from Colorado to Florida

We were looking for a company to help us move all of our household things and even our car. We wanted to get everything shipped at once instead of having to pay to ship our car and furniture separately. We only had las than week a left to find a company so we called a lot of companies. The prices that we were quoted seemed really high so we decided to give uShip a try. To our surprise, we had ...

Great way to find a shipping company

I needed to ship an antique bed that was part of my Mom's estate from Maryland to my cousin in Florida. I had only a few days to make this arrangement as the closing date on the sale of my parent's house was fast approaching and I had to get it out of the house and on its way to my cousin. JDX Deliveries worked with me to get the bed in time and offered me the most competitive pricing. Turned out ...

Antique Furniture Move

We recently acquired some antique furniture that needed to be moved from Pennsylvania to Missouri. Using UShip was a great experience. The site was very user-friendly and I was shocked at how quickly bids came in. We were also thrilled with outcome of our shipment. Not only was our service provider, JSMoves professional, friendly and affordable, but he was flexible and got things to us extreme ...

Teak table

U ship saved me the cost of hiring a van and fuel costs, have already recommended to a friend. Well done great service

Great experience shipping 2 big & heavy pieces of furniture

I had bought 2 big and heavy pieces of furniture from a colleague and did not have much time to organise the shipment from their home to mine. I was originally not thrilled with using the online bid (not much confidence I would receive any bid, and how reliable would that be) but pressed by time I submitted my order. The site forces you to put the necessary details that would prevent unpleasant ...
