uship worship

Finding uShip online was a true life-saver. I wasn't sure how I was going to get a storage unit full of antique furniture left to me from my family in Texas all the way to New York. Driving a U-haul 1,900 miles did not appeal to me, nor did the time it would take and huge expense it would incur get me all excited for a road trip. And there it was....uShip. I listed my shipment. Gave plent ...

good experience

i would use uship again and recommend it to others. within days, there was a match for my goods at the price i wanted to pay. i appreciated the feedback others gave to the different trnsportors.

super experience shipping some chairs to my folks!

I was so pleased to find the Tom and Preston to deliver some chairs to my folks. They did a great job and are very nice guys! I hope your feeling better Tom. Thanks for such a good job! Keep up with those Kentucky Wildcats Preston!

Oh Natrel! What a great experience.

I needed two important peices to complete my office suite in an immediate fashion. Natrel facilitated the delivery of two collector's peices to me within the time he said and in the great condition that I had expected. I would definately recommend him to anybody and would gladly do business with him again. Definately.

First shippment

UShip certainly made my experience smooth. I wasn't sure of the service but, upon reading other experiences I felt confident. I had several offers and choose one with lots of feedback and very positive scores. I am happy with the price and the service. It was very quick, I had the trunk within nine days of placing it on UShip; only 4 days from accepting an offer! The trunk is over 100 years o ...

Everything went very well

We shipped a large chest of drawers from San Francisco to Atlanta. Communication before, during transit and delivery was first rate. I would definitely use them again. Good people to work with.

excellent

A week ago today I posted my transport needs. I had never heard of uShip.com before that day. A week later, my shipment made it from Eastern PA to central IA. Excellent service! Will definitely pass a positive word on...

Dresser shipped from Michigan to New Orleans

I was thoroughly impressed with the bidding process and how well everything worked out. We saw the initial shipping prices of 300+ dollar and wound up saving 50% and getting the dresser in less time than we could have arranged using a freight line. It was door to door service at an incredibly good price. We are definitely looking at using Uship to purchase items from IKEA whose ship rates are ridi ...

Furniture to kids

We wanted to get kitchen table and chairs and coffee table to our kids in Denver. These guys did it in one day and just carried it our of our house and wrapped everything for us. They were very courteous, customer friendly and professional. We will definitely use them again.The price was right too.

Putting Antiques to Use

I have had some antiques in my basement for over a year that I've been trying to get to my son 2000 miles away. I tried a couple of times to ship them but the cost has been too much. Then I found UShip via Google. And from UShip, I found Mike @ Main Street Movers. I booked with Mike/Main Stree at 1/3 the cost of anyone else to ship my (4) antique pieces that have been in the family for 80+ ...

No problemo with my antique chairs

I was shipping two mid-century modern lounge chairs from my grandmother-in-law's home in PA to my front door here in CO. fed ex gave us a sickening quote so i started looking at other viable options and along came uship! found it on accident, then got all set up and happened to be bid on by none other than thzig, a superstar here on uship. i felt at ease right away knowing this would all go down ...

Bidding process was orderly and clear

Had to change move dates due to travel commitments and Uship updated my information easily. Communication with shippers was very good and I was able to confirm the qualifications and price I needed with shipping this piano. I never felt pressured or locked in and appreciate the latitude of communication with the site and bidders. Very, very pleased with this process and look forward to using th ...

First time

Had heard about Uship from a friend after I received bids from moving companies; comparison in price was night and day with identical services. I found the website helpful and easy to use as well as communicate with the shipping contact.

Good experience

shipped bed, dresser and small night stand. saved approx $200 as compared to larger moving companies. pick-up was one day late due to traffic and other circumstances and phone call was not received to notify of date change. i had to get in touch with him instead. after i expressed my desire to be notified if timing changed, ted was very willing to contact me with updates. delivery next morning! it ...

Baldwin Artist Grand

I was getting ready to have a 5'8" Baldwin Artist Grand piano, that I had inherited, moved from Georgia to Michigan. After putting my information on a website for moving quotes I began getting loads of e-mails and phone calls from moving companies. It was daunting. Then I discovered UShip. UShip took all of the pressure off of making a decision. I know from experience that many moving companie ...

country furniture shipment picked up as planned ,and delivered on time

From the time I accepted the bid till the time after delivery, I was kept informed about my shipment . I had questions about my shipment before I accepted,and all those were answered, and no problems after that. I would use Anthony again if the need comes up . Honest and dependable good combo. Vince

Bed Shipment

Well we were moving down from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and well the Lady had to have her bed here when she got here and moved in. So we did not have anyway of getting it here, we turned to U-Ship and in turn got her bed down here since she is the boss lol and it was ready to go for moving day into the new apartment down here in Ohio. It was great.

NC to Hawaii

My wife and I just got married so the next step was getting her stuff from NC to Hawaii. We were on the fence for a while, deciding whether or not to ship or sell. We had a living room set that we wanted to move along with a number of boxes. I came across uShip website and was allowed to bid on movers that could fit my budget. Anyway, i found someone that was willing to help me out, and got the ...

You made our daughter's day...

My wife and I had recently moved to a new home, and because of that, we had several pieces of furniture that we no longer needed. We live on the east coast and our daughter lives in Arizona, so I didn't think there was an easy way to make our stuff, her stuff. Our daughter had used uShip when she relocated from Tampa, Florida to Yuma, so you were the first suggestion that came to her mind. I wa ...

Estate furniture

I had previously found out about Uship while traveling and in dire need of help hawling a trailer as our Boy Scout Troop vehicle was having mechanical problems while we were cross country with the scouts. Fortunately the problem was worked out but the response from people willing to help was quick and very encouraging. When I had this job to do Uship was the first place I looked and was very sat ...

Shipping memories 1500 miles...

A year after my Mother passed away my Father decided to sell the house I grew up in. Though it saddened me, I want my Dad to be happy. I flew back home and had to pack up things from my childhood and items my Mother wanted me to have. This included childhood toys, furniture, and boxes of family photos going back several generations. Needless to say it was an emotional trip to pack the items fo ...

moving daughter back home

We moved our daughter home from college in Florida. She had a full bedroom of furniture. Rental trucks would have cost us half again as much. These guys were much more reasonable and didn't disappoint us. It was our first time using a small mover and I was REALLY skeptical. uShip made a great website that eased all of my fears. Class Act moving was truly wonderful. Nice people that were honest, ti ...

Perfect Shipping Experience (steamer trunk)

I had sold a steamer trunk on ebay and need it shipped to Chicago IL from Liberty MO (about 9 hrs away). I first went to my local UPS store and couldnt believe what there charges were. I just couldn't see spending that kind of money for one item. I had heard about USHIP from an ebay member and decided to look into it. Believe me I was more than a little skeptical. But I thought I would try it. I f ...

Great experience shipping my furniture.

Needed 3 items shipped from Florida and didn't want to pay big moving company minimum charge of 1000 pounds when my total shipment was less than 250 lbs. Found uShip on internet and saved $600. Communication was great with service provider. They answered all my questions and delivered furniture as quoted. Great experience and would definitely use again.

Uship Saves the Day

I bought a designer sleeper sofa on ebay. I was thrilled at the price, not thrilled at the location: it was literally on the opposite side of the continent. As I looked at the prices quoted by traditional movers, I begin to see the savings from buying on ebay slipping away. The seller tipped me off to uship, and within two days found a white glove mover who would deliver door-to-door at a very ...

Mom's antique rocking chair

I shipped my Mother's antique rocking chair from my brother's home in Illinois to my home in southern California. Marc kept me informed at every step, working with my brother for the pick-up and my schedule for the delivery. The price was very reasonable and the most important thing is that the chair was handled with great care. I am 100% satisfied with Transport Service/toynut and uShip and wou ...

shipping my antique windsor chair

Leonard did a great job. Great care in blanket wrapping my antique windsor chair. Arrived on time with great communication on both pick up and delivery. I will definitely use Leonard again.

Excellent service

My home burned two years ago. I lost my grandfathers rocking chair. I found one very similar on ebay, bought it, it was in Michigan so I emailed uship. I accepted an offer from Gary. He was wonderful to work with, he delivered the rocker to my brothers business. That was close to his home also. The price was right, the service and communication were excellent. I would recommend him and uship a ...

Furniture shipment

I have an antique dining room table that was damaged in Hurricane Katrina - one leg probably ended up in the Gulf but the table and other 5 legs were still standing with a dish unbroken on the table. I had 3 1/2 feet of water in my home and a foot of marsh grass! I've looked for over 3 years for a table base or leg to replace mine and finally found one very similar on e-bay & really got a deal. I ...

Great job on large items

I bought some old trunks on craigslist, but the location was 3 hourse away from my house. I was unable to pick them up, but gave uship a try. (before I tried uship my shipping cost from freight companies was 5 times what I paid with uship). I got the items in a matter of days, and it was easy as pie - I would highly recommend uship and my service provider, Emily's Expediting. Wonderful!

Move

Moved from Ga to Fl. They were right on time and kept in contact the whole time they had our belongings in their care. They were very polite and were very timely. would use them again.

Got what I wanted, and saved money too.

I really wanted this particular dresser, and had been trolling the California Craigslist for months. Finally, one came up, but it was in Southern California, and I live in Northern California - too far away to go pick it up myself, even if I did own a pickup truck - which I don't. The Uship bidding service allowed me to get a fair bid quickly, and just as important, a quick pick-up. I saved ...

Success Moving Furniture

We helped a friend in NJ break down her Mom's house. She gave us three antique tables and some china in return. We needed to move it to CA. We listed the job on UShip, got several bids, and took the most competitive bid. Scott met us in NJ at the day and time agreed, whisked the goods away, packed them, and had them shipped. They arrived in CA in a week, as agreed. The packing was spectacular ...

delivered our antique chairs perfectly

We shipped 4 antique chairs to a customer from FL to DE. Worried about shipping with fragile goods, but our shipper Ted, delivered them all in one piece. The customer was very pleased with how smooth the delivery went & how friendly the driver was (Ted). I took comfort in knowing that Ted handles antique deliveries on a reg basis. We will definitely use Ted again for future shipments to the no ...

Antique Buffet

My mother-in-law in CT had an antique buffet that she wanted to pass on to my wife, out here in CA. I trawled the internet, looking for shippers, and accidentally stumbled upon uShip. At first, I was a bit skeptical, but looking at the extensive information trail available for every shipment, and reading through some of those comments, etc., convinced me to give it a try. I'm glad I did: My uS ...

A Family Tradition Continues

My uShip experience allowed a family tradition to continue. My son and his wife recently had their first born. The antique Lincoln rocking chair that I nursed him in when he was born was here in Ohio with me and my new grandson was in Oregon. The cost of conventional shipping methods were prohibitive. I found uShip through google and completed the form noting the highest price I could afford t ...

Ship Loveseat Across Country

After my mother passed away, I wanted to ship a 60 year old beautiful loveseat that was part of my home growing up on the east coast to the west coast. For a few years, I searched for a mover to transport this lovely loveseat economically and with confidence it would arrive undamaged. I could not find a shipper to handle this until I discovered uShip on-line and read about the wonderful experien ...

tools

Second time in three weeks I had to ship my tools. One day turn around and perfect service. This is the only way to go when you need an instant move, to work from one site to another.

Great experience moving

Mike did a great job. He was running late but let us know early on and we rescheduled. He then made sure to "make it right" by showing up early in the morning so I could still get to work on time. For me, the true test of the quality of a service provider is not how they act when everything goes well but how they act when something goes wrong. I have a lot of confidence in Mike now and would b ...

Chair shipped to Maryland

I got the price I needed to ship a reclining chair from Atlanta to Maryland. The shipper was perfect and the overall experience was perfect.

SMOOTH MOVE

Shipper kept me up-to-date on his whereabouts and delivered the day as promised. Smooth, easy transaction. I recommend this shipper.

great!

Afriendly Moving Co. is fantastic!! we would use them again. they are a father and son team who work so well together. I wish them all the very best of luck for the future! u ship is like the e-bay for shipping!

So glad I found uShip and J & J Shipping!

Since I'm not in the business of shipping often, (although I used to arrange shipping for a museum!) uShip was very useful in figuring out how to ship a family treasure half way across the United States. uShip made is possible to locate a professional and friendly company who was willing to help and stay within my limited budget. I could not have figured that out without uShip! The whole experi ...

Seamless Move Across the Miles

i just discovered U-Ship and needed a few, but very lovely Antique pieces, carefully transported from La Jolla Ca. 250 miles to the North. Mr. Davis accepted my bid which was more than reasonable. He uses his very own pick-up truck w/ a trailer hitch. I saved tons of $$ as a result and more importantly, he was the consummate professional, punctual AND careful from the pick-up point, to delivery ...

Good shipping experience.

Pieces were secure on the truck and the driver did a great job communicating with me so I knew where he was and when he would arrive at my home. He even helped put the new bed together!

Couch and Love seat.

When women say they want to paint the living room, it really means it's time to get new furniture. I got the furniture, but it was in South Carolina. I live in Wisconsin. LTL shippers are very expensive so I hit the Internet trail. The first bid on uShip was from Justcall2haul. It was acceptable and arrived within 2 hours of placement on Monday morning with a promise to pick up Tuesday ...

Moving Mothers Furnature

The move was a bedroom set bought in 1970 that I gave my mother she used it for 38 years and was in excellent shape, it was a very well built all Oak . My mother passed away in April and I wanted to have the set sent to my home in Washington, she lived in New Jersey. Uship provided the service with timely pickup and delivery using modern equipment and professional and curtious Drivers. Would use U ...

Wonderful. Would use again.

We have lived on the East Coast for nearly 30 years. My brother-in-law has always lived on the West Coast. We have a great-grandmother coffee table which we wanted to keep in the family. My brother-in-law wanted it but we couldn't figure out how to get it to him in one piece. Another sister-in-law had a good experience with U-Ship It so we tried it and loved it! Mark Bibbee was great and we would ...

small shipment from NYC to DC

A friend was closing down her apartment in NYC and she gave us a desk and leather chair. First problem, how to get them to DC--since most movers don't take very small shipments, or charge an arm and leg. We wnet on UShip and several shippers contacted us. Gene from Eastern States e-mailed a bid that was the most reasonable and we accepted (other bids were double to triple their price.) Once we ...

Fabulous experience shipping my grandparents dining room table and chairs!

I was not sure how to choose a shipper when the opportunity came about to ship my grandparents dining room furniture. My Grandfather had recently past away at 99yrs old and their home was to be sold. USHIP made it easy to get a bid as well as get to know the shipper before just choosing one randomly. The cost was great! It would have been much higher to have used a moving company, and without an ...
