RE: Uship

WOW this was so easy,so many bids,found such a great price and the shippers was excellent . I think this site is awesome. I would recommend it to anyone. It was easy to use. I especially like the link to Ebay so that the vendor can see exactly what he is shipping. Makes it easier for all . What a great site. I shipped a large armoire from Virginia to New York. The whole transaction took a week ...

Great experience

Greg arrived on time and was very careful in removing the items for shipment. He delivered them promptly. He was very helpful on both ends of the delivery.

Shipping a gun safe

The whole UShip experience was novel to me. It was very easy to use. Just an excellent way to ship those "odd" items when you don't know to whom to turn for help. Website was easy to use. My service provider was excellent keeping me up to date with his location and ETA. UShip is just a great idea!

worked out just as I had hoped!

Mike transported an antique bench for us and i was concerned that it be handled appropriately. It arrived in perfect condition!

bed and dresser

Wanted to get Queen size bed and dresser to just graduated from college son in another state. For the same amount he would have spent on a cheap mattress was able to shop him his bed plus dresser. Great experience with UShip. Will recommend them to others needing this type of service. FlByNight did an excellent job and set everything up for him on his end and for the first time in 2 months he slep ...

Great experience-great price

Mom is moving, so I needed to ship some furniture and a footlocker full of childhood stuff from Texas to Minnesota. The prices for shipping were insane! I called about 4 shippers in Austin and got bids in the $600-650 range. This was for curbside delivery! My U-Ship bid was $260 and they carried my stuff down to the basement. Plus, I loved using a family owned business based in a Minneapolis ...

Perfect Shipping experience with UShip!

I had a family heirloom (dining room set) to ship - no real monetary value, but priceless to my Mom. I called a moving company and they wanted $2,000 to ship. I searched Google and found UShip and decided to give it a try. Within 24 hours I had 6 bids, ranging from $700 to $1900. I decided to use a local bidder that seemed honest and trustworthy. It was a great experience from start to finish. ...

An excellent service

Thanks! I stumbled across uShip on the web, and now I am telling all my friends. I had been dreading getting a bed up to our daughter in North Carolina. Moving companies were outrageously expensive, it wouldn't fit in our car, and our Prius won't pull a trailer. Van rental, with gas, meals, and motel, was out of the question. What to do? Then I discovered uShip! The bidding process was stra ...

Fantastic

Thank you for the very easy and expedient service. Everything was in tact, on time and reliable. Definately recommend!

wooden desk draws & chair

They kept in touch with me the whole way of the pick up and delivery. Great communication scills and very professional in a frendly maner. Made me feel that I was dealing with an old friend ir a close family member. I would defenatly use them again if they are available.

AntiquePurveyor VERY HAPPY CAMPER

It was time for us to find a new carrier to help with east coast furniture deliveries. Alb, which I found on Uship, certainly made us very happy with first shipment. Only a few minutes after we submitted our shipment, ALB bid and promised delivery to and from within 7 days. It's what we needed, and there feedback was awesome. We tried albtransport and was extrememly pleased with the entire ush ...

Shipped Boxed chairs.

We had 2 chairs to ship from NY to GA. WE initially had bids that were more than the cost of UPS, but when I replied as such, one of the shippers lowered their bid to be competitive.

Shipment of craftmatic bed

I was left in a bind when the seller of my craftmatic bed said she was leaving for Fla. for 6 months in 6 days.The pickup was in a basement and at an elderly ladies home in a Chicago suberb. I am in N.C. After accepting my bid on USHIP my worries were no more. I was informed of the progress of the delivery at intervals. It was delivered to my storeage by a very nice gentleman,who made sure it was ...

Refund of Deposit

thomas1462 agreed to transport a large motorized lounge chair from Pendleton, Indiana to Hernando, Florida. I paid a deposit of $21.93 plus the Uship listing price of $12. Thomas called to say when he would be there and asked if there was anyone to help him load it. I checked with Jane in Pendleton and there was not. He said he had a van and was pulling a boat. I questioned whether or not the ...

Furniture

I came upong this service by searching the internet. They bid in my price range and immediately started with an excellent level of communication. This was furniture that our son had purchased and put together for Mother's Day. It had great sentimental value for us. They communicated their every move, told us when to expect delivery and worked around our schedule. Our furniture was handle ...

Plesantly surprised; good experience

Did not expect it to go so smoothly, but item was promptly picked up and promptly delivered. Very professional.

Bedframe

I was shipping a bedframe and mattress from CT to IL. and wasn't sure how to do it. I got some ridiculous bids from other companies. All I wanted was a service that could put it on a truck that could take a partial load. UShip was fabulous. I had 4 different bids and the service provider I went with was so professional and honest and actually cared that my shipment was packed right. I really ...

Great experience shipping my desk

Moved my mother in law to Phoenix from Chicago, did not have enough room to bring her desk. U-Ship saved the day. The shipper was excellent, prompt and took pride in his work. Cost was within her budget because we were able to name out price. If I ever need this service again, I will definitely use uShip. Thanks

James was AWESOME

Two thumbs up. James was easy to communicate with, very punctual, professional and flexible. I would would definitely work with James again.

My first Time!

I am a shopper! I love Ebay and now I have a shipping family to count on when I purchase an item where the buyer is responsible to arrange shipping/packing on their own. I'm not sure I saved any money because WHO was going to collect my antique brass bed and deliver it across the country to me? Black Bear did!! My shipper was great. He was easy to trust and I'm thankful for giving him ...

Absolutely outstanding service with our antique.

Always nervous when you don't know a mover. But LandLift made it feel like we'd known them forever. Real, down to earth people. Steve stayed in close touch with us from the time he got the order to pick-up to delivery. Absolutely no complaints. When LandLift arrived, we had a nice chat and learned we were born and raised in the same area. A magnificant moving experience. Will choose Lan ...

Dinning set and curio cabinet,

I did'nt know that such service exist, I went to the internet and find you and I'm happy that I did,just love this service,Ken did a excellent job.:-)

Great experience shipping 2 favorite pieces of furniture from my parents' home to mine.

uShip makes it so easy to post and comparison shop -- on price and service. I didn't have much time to scout out a mover to ship 2 pieces of furniture from my parents. And, because these were cherished family pieces, quality of service was as important to me as cost. uShip's customer comments and online bidding provided the perfect solution. I made a confident decision on the shipper, and the onli ...

Horse drawn carriage

This is the second time I've used uShip and both experiences were very good. My latest experience was with Jay at Evergreen Motorsports. He bid on the shipment of a horse drawn carriage that I purchased in New Mexico. I had other bids as well, but Jay had the best rating along with a fair price. The carriage required careful loading and tying down to ensure it would not be damaged. It a ...

Great service shipping my Ethan Allen furniture

Good Old Movers did a wonderful job transporting my furniture across several states. They were very professional and handled things with great care. I am keeping their number in case I have anything else come up. I would definitely recommend them to others.

Great Experience

Shipped furniture from Houston to Atlanta. Picked up on time, delivered on time. Great communication. Will use again. Thank you William.

My Mother's Cedar Chest

My mother passed away in August 2008. She wanted my daughter to have her cedar chest. I thought that would be a good time to move mine from the room it had been sitting in for over 30 years also. I called several shipping companies trying to find a reasonable way to get them from Illinois to California. Very few wanted to move just two items and those that would wanted an outrageous amount for mov ...

great experience

great experience. great service. wonderful and fair price and a great shipper and delivery. have already recommended to my friends.

Great experience

I have never shipped a large item. In the past, I have not made purchases because i was unsure ow to get them delivered without spending more than I paid for the item with frieghter's or postal services. This experience was excellent and it is great to know that I can have items shipped for a good price and trust who is shipping. ALSO, I like the idea of supporting the individual business owner ...

Gife from a friend in Chicago

A good friend in Chicago wanted to give us his dining room chairs and a antique wooden bench after our return to the US. We live in Portsmouth, NH, so the expense of moving the itmes was significant. We recieved a price on ubid 80% lower than the initial price I received in the yellow pages. Tony K of Greyhound, our mover, did an excellent job. He communicated with us very profesionally and I' ...

good, easy, effective!

I found a game table that I wanted to give my grandchildren (and teach them to play chess) on ebay but was not able to go after it due to health problems. Wizard brought it to me for about the cost of my going after it, had I been physically able to. Wonderfull experience, likable, friendly shipper! What more can I say? So, yes, I will, absolutely, use uship again!

Great experience finding tranportation for a piece of furniture from NH to SC.

I wanted to transport a large chair and a half from my house in NH to my neice in SC. I was having a difficult time finding a freight carrier that was resonable and would help move the chair out of my house and into my neices like a mover. uShip was a great solution to finding the right transporter, and Samples Transport Services did a greta job. Good Job!

thanks uship

My sister had furniture that was handed down from family members that we really wanted to keep in the family for sentimental value. However, the furniture wasn't working in her house, as she needed office space instead of an extra bedroom. I happen to need a bedroom set for my new apartment. So good timing and Uship made it happen. my service provider was excellent!! I'd definitely use this servic ...

The Beast

I describe the piece of antique furniture I bought as The Beast. It's a big old solid secretary that was made to with stand an A bomb blast. Must have used it in Hiroshima! Anyhow, my mover somehow managed to treat it with kid gloves enough so that it will live for another 100+ years and continue to challenge future owners - The Beast lives!!!!!!!Thanks to FLYBYNIGHT!!

Great value shipping sofa

Needed to ship 8' sofa to my son. Should be easy - just an 8 hour drive up I-75. Too expensive to rent a truck or trailer (no hitch). Shipped with cdavemove - easy for him and easy for me. First time won't be last time with UShip.

Awesome job of moving furniture

I needed to get furniture shipped from mid East Florida to Southwest Louisiana. Moveprotx did an excellent job with pick up and on time delivery. Everthing was blanket wrapped and strapped to prevent damage. We will diffently use again without hesitation. Rates were reasonable and within our budjet Thanks so much, Jeff.

My furniture

UShip was very easy to use and I would recommend using this service. If needed we will use Uship again. Corey, Cincinnati, OH

Save me money and time

I was moving into a smaller place and had a nice expensive bedroom set that I did not want to give away and could not sell at its valued price. I decided I wanted to send them home to my room in Atlanta but the move needed to be cost effective. I searched for weeks trying to find an affordable shipping service from Miami to Atlanta. I am single and in college so I needed something reasonably pric ...

Antique dining room set

I used the company to have my antique dining room set and I was very impressed with the price of the delivery as well as how organized it was. I had many different bids and some were very expensive but I did find a company that was very reasonable and they did a wonderful job. I would definitely use uShip again.

Great experiemce shipping antique furniture

I had several furniture items that I needed shipped from my mother's house after she passed away recently. It was a tough time for me personally, and I was worried about how I would find a reasonable and competent mover for some antique furniture and books that were not terribly valuable but meant a lot to me. uShip was the perfect solution, and Mike the shipper was a godsend. It couldn't have b ...

Great experience shipping the family furniture

This was my first time using Uship and although at first I was a little leery, everything worked out just fine. The shipper was polite, courteous, on time and kept me well informed. Overall, it was a great experience.

Great experience

Michael was great! I was really nervous due to bad experience with random companies on the internet, but he was responsive and fast. Thanks to him my parents will have chairs to sit on for Thanksgiving. My father is a retired Navy Captain and it takes a lot to impress him, but he was definitely impressed. Pick Michael! P.S. I thought it was weird there were so many positive responses, but now ...

Family Heirlooms Arrive Safe and Sound!

My story is probably not unique--- I inherited some very fragile and unique items from a family member and wanted them shipped halfway across the country. These items meant so much to me and I had worried for months about how to get them to my own home safely but without having to spend a fortune on shipping. I heard about Uship and decided to try it. My experience was great. Everything was in ...

Furniture Move

We thought we could never get our furniture moved for a reasonable cost. UShip made it so easy, and found us the perfect professional for the job. We are absolutely thrilled and would recommend UShip to anyone. Thank you.

Shipping a mattress & box spring

I was moving and needed to get things cleared out of my home and I was on a tight schedule. I called some movers and they wanted over $650.00 to ship from Baltimore to Boston. I found uShip online, looked at their references, and then signed up. within a few minutes, I received the first bid. I went with the second bid which came in the next morning and was less than $250.00. I received great serv ...

Dinig Room Furniture shipment

Used uShip for my grandmother's Dinig Room Furniture. The shipment went as planned and smooth. uShip was great to get comparative bids, services and dates. ctscbob was a great provider. I will use uShip again when I have goods,items or furniture to ship.

easiest move ever

I listed my shipment on UShip and 2 days later I had my shipment delivered! The price was reasonable (less than many bids I'd received from other shipping companies and comparable to U-Haul w/o the hassles of moving it myself). The service provider was professional, honest & fair. I've moved many, many times and wouldn't hesitate to use Uship in the future.

Great experience shipping my antique sofa!

I needed to get my antique sofa from MI to southern CA. Jimmy picked up my shipment at my "ship it now" price, saving me quite a bit from Plycon's quoted price. Also, the shipment was to arrive within within 10 days of scheduling pick-up! Jimmy kept in contact with me though out the shipment and the delivery person was prompt (he said he'd be here at noon and he was!) very nice & professional. ...

Great experience as a first time user

I only had to ship about 8 to 10 items includling boxes and furniture. I recently had surgery on my shoulder and was not able to move things. Normally, I could have made the move myself. I found out about uShip from my daughter so I bit the bullet and arranged the move on the net. It quickly became apparent to me that I could make the move for much less than if I had done so myself and with a ...

A great experience shipping our bedframe

When we found UShip we were hopeful, but skeptical, that we could seriously have people bid on our "shipment" and actually find someone who would--for a reasonable price--deliver my wife and I's new bed frame from Washington to Montana. We'd looked at the price it'd cost to rent a U-Haul...way to much. We'd considered borrowing my Dad's truck and driving it all the way out there to pick up the bed ...
