My first time with uship

This is my first time with uship, trying to ship a sofa chair from Atlanta to Texas. Had to post thrice the same item as the first one had dates conflicts, the second one had problem with his truck, the third one worked out perfect. Still waiting on refund of money from first 2. Except for this part experience with uship is good . I would totally recommend this and would be for sure be back fo ...

First Time User

We were worried about shipping out antique furniture. Everything just fell into place perfectly, like clockwork. I was very impressed with the communicatiom and will definately use this service again. They were extremely reliable.

On time and fast!

Thomas is awesome. Picked up same day as booking. This guy moved my piano down the stairs as if it was a toy. Delivered same day as well and my mom was nice enough to cook him dinner as my piano was going to her place. I will be using Thomas to move me and my family to New Mexico next month. Thanks Uhsip and Thomas for a easy move.

great experience shipping my chair

this is the third time i've used uShip and every time has been fantastic. i've paid half as much as i would with a regular shipping service, and everything always arrives in great shape -- and everyone i've dealt with has been professional and pleasant. this last uship experience was impressive because of its efficiency -- i posted to book it now on monday, and my chair was picked up in atla ...

Bar stools

I needed two bar stools shipped across country and did not want to box them up via UPS. I wanted pick up and delivery door to door, and at times that fit my schedule (i.e. before leaving for work). uShip provided the perfect solution.

Proactive Shipper

When the shipper picked up my sofas he notices a leg was broken. He took the initiative to properly set the leg and glue it so that it would be tight and hard upon delivery. That is service above and beyond.

I bought a dining table, and 8 chairs from Ebay, with a local pickup requirement.

The only problem was that I lived 275 miles away from the seller! I saw another seller recommend UShip.com, and I decided to give it a try. I listed my shipment yesterday, and received a fair bid/offer, which I booked. I figured it might take a week or so before I received the furniture, but Mr. Taylor worked diligently to arrange a pickup from the seller and delivered my furniture today, less tha ...

Uship fees and Customer Service

I am not pleased about uship charging me a service charge as well as a deposit. I can understand one or the other, but not both. I don't think uship's customer service/email response time is sufficient, nor the quality of the replies. I have, conversely, been happy with the shippers on uship.

furniture delivery

My husband and I needed to have some furniture delivered from our home to our business location which is three hours away from our residence. I googled and found uship and decided to try it out since the quotes I had received from calling companies in the yellow pages were so exspensive. I found the whole registration and process to be stress free. I simply measured our furniture, took a pictur ...

Great experience getting my Ebay headboards

This was my first time ebay bidding / winning a product/ and then arranging the transport.I won 2 twin size headboards and was unable to pick them up myself. I found the uShip site easy to request bids and then to accept the best. My experience with BMTTrucking went smooth considering the holidays/snow and ice storms and my seller unexpectantly closing down for a week over the holiday. I would u ...

Great experience having my giant china cabinet picked up and delivered.

I am always finding great deals on ebay and craiglist, but many times the seller isn't able or willing to box or crate large items. I was unaware that uship existed until I saw it as part of an ebay auction. When I found a beautiful, huge china cabinet at an unbelievable deal I thought I'd give it a try. My shipper (Jay w/ Mosecon Transport)blanket wrapped my cabinet and delivered it safely to us. ...

Excellent Expericence with my sofa

Ernjun was excellent. He bent over backwards to accomodate a same day shipment so that I could have a weekend delviery. The sofa arrived in perfect condition and 1/2 hour ahead of schedule. Thanks so much for for a easy move!!

uShip was a good surprise!

I needed shipping for a family heirloom small roll-top desk but did not have the ability to get it to a conventional shipper (UPS, etc). Somehow, I needed to get the desk unscathed from Washington to Ohio without having to pick it up at a warehouse. I looked online for small-item shipment providers and found uShip - a bid-for-job shipping service. It was easy to use and I received a bid from a rem ...

Didn't know this type of service existed, until now!

After a long search on Craigslist for a discontinued furniture piece, I located it....on the flip side of the the United States!!! Other carriers offered "freight" services, which was too complicated (crating, etc) and more logistics than I needed. UShip / Tom came through, putting the uncrated pieces carefully in the back of his suburban, and brought them safely from Texas to Minnesota. He was ...

Beautiful shipping experience!

I bought a 10-foot long 1960s sofa that had been reupholstered in white. Unfortunately, I bought it 150 miles from my home, and even my own pickup truck would not handle something that size. The seller recommended uShip, and I was very happy with my experience! I was willing to pay for appropriate service, but as always, you wonder if you're spending too much for what you will be getting in t ...

christmas chair

We recieved an great reupholstered chair for christmas. The problem was we recieved it in omaha, Ne and we live in Los angeles, Ca. I how had to find a way to get the chair home. I found quotes for $300, $450, and $550 from frieght companies to get the chair to california. I then tried uship and got great service and a final price of $150 to ship door to door in 5 days. With the great prices I wil ...

Hang in there!

We wanted to ship our son's handmade adirondack chair across country and found that it couldn't be shipped by UPS or FedEx. We posted it in uShip and got a few initial bites, but then it sat for 6+ weeks. I wasn't sure what to do next when another bid came in and was the perfect match for our single item. The chair was delivered in time for our son to move to his new job with one of his prized ...

Great experience

My shipment went to New York City - known for nightmare moving situations. I felt lucky because the movers communicated well and were friendly and reliable.

An Antique China Closet

My daughter and I love to go to the antique malls when she is home from college. She has loved antique shopping with me since she was young, and it is a special time for the two of us each time we go! We enjoy walking the aisles and talking about the items we see. Our special items of interest are old china pieces, glass and crystal and any table clothes, dolies and pillow cases that have been mad ...

LAST MINUTE DISASTER AND THE MOVERS TO THE RESCUE!

I HAD A LAST MINUTE PROBLEM WHERE I HAD TO MOVE ALL OF MY BELONGINGS INSTEAD OF JUST A FEW ITEMS. I HAD MOVERS ALREADY BOOKED THAT WERE EXPECTING TO JUST MOVE 4 ITEMS. I DOUBTED THEY WOULD EVEN HAVE SPACE IN THE TRUCK. WHEN THEY SHOWED UP I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION TO THEM AND THEY VOLUNTEERED TO MOVE THE ADDITIONAL ITEMS AT NO ADDITIONAL COST!!! I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO THROW MY ITEMS IN THE TRASH A ...

Great experience shipping my sectional and Lounger

I ordered a sectional and lounger from Overstock.com. I have bought many things from them over the years and have been pleased. I will never order furniture again. It was wrongly described. They were gracious to take it back but I had to figure out the details--boxes were destroyed shipping it to me. My shipper took care of it. Overstock originally gave me the wrong address to ship it to. I ...

First shipment was well done

We were shipping a fully restored Hitchcock hutch and base from Connecticut to a customer in Arizona. Obviously, this type of shipment was bigger than we would even think of sending through UPS or DHL. We listed it on uShip, and had several bids within a few days. We chose the one that had offices closest to us. Scott was fantastic- picked up the item quickly right at our door, crated it perfectly ...

Great experience and would definitely want them to ship for me again.

My antique blanket chest arrived through snow, ice, rain storms...quite safely. I appreciated the handling and care of this family piece. I would recommend them highly. Thank you!!!

easy

This site is great because instead of having to do homework and call a million movers, I let them come to me. I've already recommended you to a friend who currently has a shipment listed.

Good experience in shipping furniture from KY to MA

I originally thought I would ship the dining room set with a major mover, but the cost was $1200.00--I was able to use U-ship and it was only $500.00 to ship from KY to MA. It was picked up in a timely fashion and delivered a day ahead of schedule. There were no problems with damage or breakage. I would highly recommend using their services. As a matter of fact, I have already past the Uship w ...

Good experience

I had a hard time finding someone to ship my things because of a scheduling issue with my friend in Baltimore. ALBTransportation scheduled a special pick up for me. They delivered as promised without incident. My items arrived in excellent condition. The price that I paid was very reasonable.

Antique Chest finds new home thanks to Uship

Classic furniture "Love story": pieces of an antique collection, separated by several states. One chest of drawers in Florida, one matching bedroom set in Ohio. After much research, we found u-ship. They are now finally reunited thank you to a great mover that offered care and service! Thank you!

Handmade spice chest shipped with care.

This was my first experience with u-ship, and I have been very happy with it at every turn. My shipment was a spice chest that I made for my grandmother. Ten years later she gave it to my daughter who is named for her. Since my grandmother recently passed away, I needed to ship the chest from TX to Boston. The sentimental value on this piece is through the roof. I am a furniture maker and have shi ...

craps table

This was the best service i have ever received.Comunication was great,time and care of goods was right on time.

Twin Beds

This was my first experience with U Ship. I found it when I googled 'ship furniture'. I filled out all the information and then bids came in. I didn't respond in time to the one bid I wanted and hit delete by mistake, so I emialed the bidder and wanted to except his bid, so he had to rebid it. I had about 5 bids I think. I of course, picked the cheaper of them and was a bit nerveous about sending ...

UShip.com

I needed my piano shipped to Sacramento to my daughter for christmas. My shipper Sergio was wonderful and the piano arrived on time without a scratch! We are very happy

Great experience

I didn't know how to go about shipping a bed. I typed in this question on google and u ship came up. They asked me a few questions about the bed and where I lived and where it was being shipped to, and said that I would get some bids. I checked my e mail and I had 4 bids in a couple days. I chose the best one for me and it worked out great. Next time I need a big item shipped I will know what to d ...

Great experience shipping a child's bed.

We needed to transport a child's bed 900 miles to our Grandson. The size and weight prevented us from doing it ourselves. We checked on the conventional methods of shipping without any luck. Then I saw an article in a magazine discussing uShip. I tried it and the results were beyond what I had expected. The whole experience was refreshing. I dealt with a professional moving company. I saved mone ...

Good experience.

Good experience. However, they advertised that I would get a rebate back of at least $10.00 and I have not gotten it yet. I do not see the promotions on the website any more. I would like to get the rebate back.

finally a good experience

I lost $1200 worth of stuff thru shipping here at Uship before, and Uship provide no protection of such dead beat delivery guys. But glade to have a good experience this time.

Easy and customer friendly

Received good quotes, and delighted with this on line service. Driver selected did a superb job of staying in communication, delivering as committed, and caring for my goods. Drove through ice and snow to do his job. I saved over $350 dollars over a local provider by using uShip. Absolutely will use uShip when I need shipping again. Thank you

Incredible experience shipping a China Cabinet

I had a China Cabinet and a Cedar Chest that needed to go from Asheville NC to Philadelphia PA where my sister lives. When the delivery guys got to my sisters house, it had snowed and iced. They cleared her sidewalk for her and set up the China Cabinet. They then took apart her old Cabinet and moved it to her garage for her. This is completely above and beyond what was expected. I would like ...

Transporting Memories

My mom had recentlly sold her house in Eastern Washington, and had only a few weeks to remove her items from the house. She had relocated to Florida during the summer and so this was a trip to make sure everything was out. One item that she didn't want to part with was a cedar chest her parents had given her as a Graduation Present in 1973. As soon as she told me that she didn't know what to d ...

Excellent Job

Mike was very professional and kept in touch with me during the entire trip. He was stranded in the snow for 2 days but still remained in constant contact with me. He kept me informed at all times and really went above and beyond the call of duty in keeping my things safe. All arrived safe, secure and well cared for. I will call Mike for my next moving job.

Quilting Table for my Wife's Christmas

During a visit to the Willamette Valley, my wife spotted a quilting table handcrafted from maple and mahogany. I could tell how much she wanted it, so I went to see the craftsman a few days later and we struck a deal. However, it soon became apparent that neither he nor I had a plan to get the table from Sherwood, Oregon to Salt Lake City. We called a number of shippers, but found that they were v ...

Highly recommend uShip

I saved over $100 using uShip. Just one suggestion: maybe you can offer additional insurance for a reasonable price (where customers can choose to purchase or not). That was the only thing that made me a little nervous about using uShip. Other than that, it was awesome. Will use again with confidence if the need arises.

shipment of crib

Denes was great. He called me on the way so I knew when he would arrive to pick up the crib. He delivered the crib the next day to my neice and also let her know what time he would arrive. Everything went smoothly and we were delighted. Denes appears very clean cut and trustworthy. I would definitely use Denes again.

MO to CA

Bf broke up with me I had 3 weeks to get out of his house. They were able to do my move at a very resonable price and a great time line that I needed it in. They arrived on time and were very friendly, and gentle with my stuff, wrapping the dressers, china buffet and glass tables with nice movers blankets. They did get stuck in the snow but that wasnt there fault they sent me awsome pictures from ...

shipped furniture

I am completely satisfied with the shipment service offered by uship. I had never used them before and was slightly cautious about using this kind of service but I must say it has been a wonderful experience.

Betty's Experience with uShip.

I needed to have a piece of furniture transported from Virginia to Philadelphia. Before my sister died in May,2008, She had purchased a Chaise Lounger.(she was disabled so the chair was a great asset in her case.) No one else had need of this particular type of chair, so therefore I decided that I could make good use of the chair in my home. Only problem was getting it from VA. to Phila. Upon ca ...

Great Shipping Experience

This was truly a seamless transaction. This is a great opportunity to save on cost. I will use this option to ship large freight before going to any other courier.

Great experience shipping my sofa

I needed to get an eBay auction purchase from Chicago to Nashville. We were on a very short time frame to get the item picked up. Tim arranged pickup and was very flexible about the delivery date and location despite our going back and forth about whether they would deliver it to us or our upholsterer. (We were having trouble getting the timing right with our upholsterer.) We had the sofa delivere ...

Good Job With The Grand Father Clock

Shipped a grand father clock that I sold on ebay. The uShip site was easy to use and I got several bids on shipping which allowed me to save money and the option to shop the service. The service provider was very nice and stated it was a usual job except the tingle of bells in the back ground driving down the road. I recommend uShip and will surely use them again.

Wonderful experience shipping from Chicago

I got worried when I bought a desk on eBay located in Chicago and started checking on shipping costs. I found Uship using Google and took a chance. I am very happy I did and when I located Tim and he made me an offer I was happy to accept that it would possibly be several weeks before they could deliver it when they had other items coming to the south. Imagine my surprise when I get a call 4 ...
