chinese antiques

I shipped 150+ year old Chinese dragon furniture. Some of it was fragile. The shipment was carefully packed, delivered on time, and unloaded and placed expediently. The shipper was available by phone, communicated frequently, and was professional. I will use him again.

Delivery of a sofa

Excellent. Excellent price,handling and communication. I would recommend in a heartbeat. They went the extra distance to make this delivery work.

3 Bedroom NY home contents moved to southern California

I found Dependable-Pro Movers to be the most completely professional and responsible moving company that I have ever dealt with. Making the arrangements was "a snap" and the crew showed up exactly when scheduled and even called ahead so the realtor could be there to open the house. The move went off quickly & efficiently and they were in California a few days earlier than expected. They saved us $ ...

Delivery of a dresser

The first time I tried Uship the carrier ran very late due to a previous pick up. We were unable to do business. I booked AMTTRANS as my next carrier and they made the entire process so easy. Everything went like clockwork. John and Marie are perfect examples of how to get something shipped with all the details met. It was a smooth and easy process from pick up to delivery. You could tell t ...

Good experience . First time used!

Was sceptical at first about using this service but got a number of bids on here and looking at the feedback I chose to go with....the most expensive bidder. Saying that, their feedback was good and how anybody could earn anything charging any less was beyond me. It took the 2 guys about 5 hours to pack and move the furniture so considering that's only £20 each an hour including the diesel and ...

Furniture for daughter's first apartment

Our daughter just graduated college on the west coast and is starting her first job in Washington DC. We decided to ship her bed and desk from her room at home in Atlanta to Washington, items too large to move ourselves. The uship process was new to us, but was easy to use and we were quickly able to find a service provider who gave a good price and promised timing that would meet our needs. Ev ...

Futon: Chicago to Boston

rather than purchase another futon fo my college going daughter, we were able to send hers- much more affordable, green and convenient! Yeah Piotr and Uship!!

stop making correspondence available to shippers + failure to give shipper critical shipment data

A shipper who was not chosen for this job gave me a hard time because he was able to read my correspondence with OTHER shippers! It is dangerous and foolish to allow shippers to be able to read a customer's communications with other shippers. Get a clue - your policy is idiotic. In addition, I filled out the pickup and deliver address data for this shipment on uShip - and uShip FAILED to give t ...

fantastic experice with moving

I had less than a container worth for shipping, and all the movers were quoting me over $2.5K. Through u-ship I found nic express, and I got the whole shipment done for $700. Nic Express brought a top of the line Mercedes truck with a sturdy trolley, all my high end electronics was packed with extra care and sometimes at no extra cost. I just wished I shipped my car with uShip and Nic Express too, ...

Great idea

I found uship on the web and have told several people of my experience. It was fast, it was easy and I had several bids for the moving of two smaller pieces of furniture. As compared to my renting a truck and driving the pieces myself, I could not have done it cheaper. Our driver was good and we liked that we could see his review and then have a conversation with him to iron out the details. ...

First time with uShip

Shipping with uShip was a new experience for me and it went well without a hitch. I plan to use this service again.

Excellent Service

Pace Moving should be ranked high if there is a recommendation ranking in this website! They deserve 5 stars! Everything was excellent! My items were handled well and you can observe just how systematic they are! Very knowledgeable about their business and very professional too!

Shipment of a single oven.

Firstly, after using a competitor website to uship last week, I would definitely recommend uship over them. This is an excellent website and I will certainly use again, and recommend to friends and family. The courier I used was very good - competitive price, good communication, friendly and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to use it again. He was particularly careful with our oven which he ...

Merry Go Round

This has been by far my best experience with a shipper. I had a bad experience with a shipper that showed up to pick up my merchandise, refused to pick it up and then never contacted me. However this shipper was the opposite. He not only spoke to us but to the person who I purchased the merchandise from. He kept me updated throuhout his travel as to his current location. Now I'm happy I found a co ...

We found our shipper!

We sell unique high end wooden furniture that requires white glove delivery. Uship has enough shippers on their site to help you find the right one at the right price.

The price made it possible!

I needed my kingsize bed and mattress in Norfolk. The only problem was that I had it stored in a container in Sussex. Most removal companies wanted around £200 for moving it and I figured that to hire a van myself would cost approx £160 including petrol. If I couldn't find a lower price then I would have had to dump the bed as it wouldn't have been viable to pay such a high price. Then I searched ...

Needed to ship a secretary desk and chair

Picked up on time and delivered in the evening even though had to wait on route. Friendly and professional at both ends of service.

Great experience once I found the right shipper

This was my first time using UShip, and once I found the right shipper, or they found me rather, I was very grateful for the UShip service. I used Rubys and they were fantastic.

Thank you!

A friend found this site - and it was a great experience! I input all the stuff that the site asked for - got a great bid - and the service on the bid was excellent! I'll be back to the site again in a few months! Thanks!

Dodge Truck Seats

I had purchased a complete front bench seats online and was worried about the shipping. Both the cost and the care were on my mind. After reviewing Kenny's offer and looking at his profile I accepted his bid (helps he lives in my home town too!). Kenny was very helpful and took great care of my truck seats. I would use him again!

Good experience

Excellent service. Everything worked very well, from obtaining the bids through to the delivery taking place. I shipped a large fridge freezer from Manchester to Essex, using the courier mattsellers. He was extremely friendly and helpful, right down to taking extra care loading the item into my house. Nothing seemed a bother even though it was a large and cumbersome appliance. The price I ...

Ohio to Colorado shipping

I had 3 furniture items to ship from Ohio to Colorado. I had gotten bids from several firms in the phone book and none were affordable. I signed up for UShip, got several bids, and chose Myers because of their positive feedback record as well as a very reasonable price. I am sure I saved several hundred dollars and I had my shipment in 48 hours of when it was picked up! I would definitely use ...

My shipment was picked up in Chicago-

It was a small load. Several very large boxes of paintings which I had packed. Four large cartons of miscellaneous and breakable items which I had packed. Along with an antique library table, large upholstered chair and two antique side chairs. He blanket wrapped the furniture. All arrived in fine fashion. My Mother had passed away and we had finally sold her condominium. I was shipping my ite ...

First time user

This is the first time I went ahead and shipped through a mover on Uship. I got a bid that I felt was reasonable and took the plunge. The website is very easy to use and the process is well explained for a first time user to feel comfortable. Every step offers plenty of guidance. Very positive experience. Full points for the website and ease of use.

antiques side board

I purchased an antique sideboard on ebay and had no way to get it from Houston, TX to Missouri. I bid on uship.com and accepted the bid from Rolling Hills Transportation. Jim Hill did a great job for me and communicated by email and phone in a timel fashion. My item was picked up and delivered within 2 days in great shape. I was very pleased with the experience. I will use Rolling Hill Transport a ...

First Time User

This was my first time using uShip. I was very satisfied. Definitely the best way to ship large items.

My Furniture

We shipped a very expensive French Dining Room set from Denver to Los Angeles. We chose to utilize a bidder that had no feedback and worried about the shipment the entire time. Little did we know we had nothing to worry about as the shipper took better care of our furniture than I would have if I had done it myself. The schedule was not really that important to us but was a pleasant surprise th ...

Great first time experience!

I had never before tried to arrange for shipping myself. I figured I'd give it a try. I used U-Ship and within minutes, I had 3 bids -- one of which was within my budget. I accepted immediately. Within 5 days, my Ethan Allen coffee table was delivered in perfect condition. I'm proud of myself for having tried it, and I'd definitely do it again.

Wardrobe delivery

The wardrobe was much larger than myself, or Heather and Michael (the couriers) anticipated! After a battle to try to get it upstairs, Heather and Michael exceeded all levels of customer service, by actually taking the wardrobe apart, taking it upstairs, and then assembling it again for me! All I can say is there are not many honest, genuine people like them around anymore, that are prepared to h ...

Great experience shipping a family heirloom!

My Aunt, in WV had a beautiful antique dressing table I fell in love with, and have wanted for some time. The problem?? She is in WV, and I live in FL. After hearing about Uship on the Clark Howard Show on CNN, I decided to check it out. My first few bids were very high, but then I started getting reasonable offers. I chose DirectShip32 because of the wonderful reviews he had on his page. I W ...

My 1st experience with uShp / SemperFi

uShip provided me with an amazing number of bids, several for much less cost than the company I ultimately chose. I decided to pay the premium of $425 (versus other bids of $300) to spare me and my daughter any aggravation, hassles, or additional stresses. Although all is well that ends well, and the furniture did come through unscathed, the weekend / evening delivery arrangement we expected ...

Jim's a godsend...

An elderly women was in desperate need of a functioning refrigerator, but could not afford it... I had tried for over a year to transport an extra fridge I had. Jim made it possible! God Bless Jim.

Would use again!

Uship served my need when I couldn't find anyone else to help me. It was fast; fairly priced and highly effective! I'd use uship again without hesitation! Thank You!

Great experience shipping my couch

Moving from Chicago to New York and was afraid of what to do with my stuff but I know I wanted to keep it. uShip helped me get my items home with little to no effort. Thanks!

Heavy Desk Delivery

The desk was pickup up and delivered on schedule. Communication by the truck driver was good. I'd enjoy working with this firm again.

shipping

I'd never had to ship anything on my own. At first I was overwhelmed by the website. But when I put out a realistic bid, the shipment was taken immediately. I live in a difficult area to drive in - single lane vacation area and this delivery came during the height of the season. But the driver had no problems and was in and out. He and his partner were exceptionally polite. Thank you.

Moving large fridge

I had won a large and heavy fridge on ebay. Uship made it very easy to refernce the ebay listing so all potential bidders on the job could see all the specifics. Found a quote and a shipper I liked and everything went as planned and on schedule.

Timing was critical

I needed the items in question picked up at a very specific time and this was done exceptionally well.

AMAZING, super fast job well done.

Shipping hundreds of large metal candle holders from Daytona Fl to Whitsett North Carolina. I needed them super fast for several weddings coming up fast. They delivered 3 x faster than I needed and in perfect condition. Better than all the large carriers I have used which keep you waiting and praying and take 2 x as long as promised. Amazing.

2 Rare Rosewood Mid-Century Chests

I bought 2 fine Rosewood Mid-Century chests in Columbus, Ohio and needed to get them to Melbourne Beach, Florida. SemperFiHaulers wrote me a nice note on this website and I hired them for a white glove move. Everything went well - he called 6 hours away from the pick-up to make sure the store would be open and then the same on the delivery and then an hour out also. My two fine chests were plac ...

Apt. move

With an aunt moving into a nursing home, some furniture and household items needed to be moved from NYC to PA. The items were more sentimental than valuable, so we could not afford to pay high costs. The uShip site allowed us to compare shippers' services and their prices very quickly. We heard about uShip on the Clark Howard radio show.

Shipment of Commercial Juice machine

Waited for a reasonable bid on my shipment. Shipment was handled with care and delivered ahead of schedule. My first uship experience was a pleasant one! I'll be back!

Wizard

Tony showed up on time as promised, kept me informed of exactly when he would arrive. He arrived at both pickup and delivery exactly as he said he would. He took great care to make sure my goods were protected. He's an honest man. I had a wonderful experience with him and would only use him in the future. Thanks, Les

Mattress

We wanted a way to ship a mattress that didn't cost as much as buying a new mattress. I discovered UShip and got several high priced bids, but got one reasonable bid as well - from an individual rather than a large shipping company. We were able to negotiate a bit on price, and it was the perfect solution. He personally picked up and delivered the mattress and beat his own time estimate. I lov ...

Very good experience

Shipped a couch because I recently moved. Uship site is great- I had a ton of bids any of which would have saved me money. Ken Williams was the service provider- a really nice/honest/hardworking service provider. Would defininately use uship/williams transport again.

Shipped a queen-sized mattress/boxspring

I just moved to Atlanta from NC, and I had to find a way to get my bed shipped to me before I left. I was scrambling to get it moved and was quoted everything from $700 to have FedEx or UPS ship it to $1,100 to have PODS do it. I googled how to ship things cheaply, found uShip, and despite all my cynicism and skepticism that a site like this would actually be worth my time, I had a GREAT experie ...

moving out of FL

I was looking to move some furniture from my home in FL to my residence in MD. I got few bitts but somehow got very good impression of TJ nswers and I read his profile. He come across as a very family oriented guy who is trying to build up his bussines. I decided to go with him but was a bit scared as I have never use this kind of service. I had great experiance! I will use it again!

first time

This was my first experience with uship.com and I will definately be keeping this service in mind for future moves. I have told everyone involved in my moving process about what a positive experience this has been using UShip and encouraged them to use this. I was skeptical at first, but the person I accepted the bid from was great. He was honest, timely, and clear as to what needed to be done ...

Antique China Hutch

Not a lot to tell, really. My husband's 98 year old grandmother is getting ready to move to assisted living facility and wanted us to have her china hutch (a wedding present for HER mother -- so it is OLD). Has lots of glass panels and what not and grandma was quite concerned about it traveling from LA to No. Calif. We used uShip and got some bids and we picked AMover. They got it to us safe a ...
