It's a generally good experience but look out for cowboys with low bids and no feedback bidding for your work.

Shipping auto interior parts

I won some large items on ebay, including seats and other interior panels for an old car I'm restoring. Tony Lincoln of 1XTRACARE picked up and delivered the items for me. He took care to protect the parts and made the process easy and secure. Remember that ebay items listed as "local pickup only" are not out of reach even if over a thousand miles away. Just contact Tony Lincoln of 1XTRACARE thr ...

Antique goods shipment to New York

On July 20th ,I shipped Very expensive Antique 19th Century Furniture and Oriental rugs to New York to be Auctioned. I found the shipper " cyberdine " on this site web site USHIP.com and they were very impressive in every way you can imagine. I have used FedEX , UPS , DHL ,old dominion and a whole bunch of other shipping companies But I must tell you , USING cyberdine saved me a lot of Mone ...

Grandmother's Things

My grandmother moved into an assisted living community and left a few pieces of furniture to me. It wasn't enough for a standard moving van, but too much to "mail" across the country to me. I struggled to find a trustworthy way to get my grandmother's kitchen table, chairs, and antique dresser out to me, and after trying Uship, I am convinced that this is the way to go! The price was reason ...

new experience.

I bought a sofa at a department store that does not offer delivery except by referring to a moving company. The moving company wanted 500 dollars for an 85 mile trip for one sofa. I then remembered reading about Uship and decided to give it a try. Worked smoothly and i got it done for literally 1/2 price. Will definately use again whenever i need something moved/shipped.

VW Engine

They picked up the engine a few days after payment just as described. And had it to me within a few days. Every time I emailed I got a quick response. And the engine looks like they took good care loading and unloading.

Pinball 2000 machine

Had a shipment for a Pinball 2000 machine from FL all the way up the East coast. Now the Pinball 2000 is not like any pinball you've seen before. This was the last versions made before all the pinball companies went out of business. It has a video display monitor that plays an arcade game in conjunction with the pinball and with the added weight and head unit requires good packing and handlin ...

Ordered a chair on ebay

I ordered a chair on ebay. These guys shipped it at a reasonable price and in a timely and courteous manner.

Our uShip Experience

We had never tried this service before but would definitely use the bidding system on uShip if we need to move again. It was great to be able to compare prices and levels of service. Plus, it was good to be able to see ratings and comments from previous customers. uShip is WONDERFUL! We had a great experience and the mover that we used was fantastic. Have to admit that we were skeptical at fi ...

finally found a mover

i had a small shipment so it was hard to find a good mover. the first was beligerent, rude, uncommunicative (no email, no fax, no cell) AND a no-show. the second took a deposit and was still a no show and i had to get it reversed through my credit card company after repeated promises they would refund. the third was a no-show. then someone told me about UShip. I couldn';t have been happier. i got ...

Excellent resource

This site is an excellent tool for any shipping needs. I heard about it through word of mouth and will definitely recommend to anyone.

Shipping my washing machine.

Friendly duo that arrived dot on time. Nothing was too much trouble for them despite their early start. My washing machine arrived safe and sound. Would recommend to others and use again. Thanks guys :-) Uship is the way to go. Easy to use site (unlike some others!) Received quotes fast. Choice of delivery options. Am just about to put another job someones way-it's great.... Ideal for ebay pur ...

Ebay item

I bought a very large item from ebay and needed to get it picked up from the otherside of the country. A friend said try uship and it was great. Just put the ebay number in and it was all done. Simple. Will deff use this again.

wade -- mr logfurniture

completely satisfactory experience, could not have been better or easier (except for my screwup involving paying him!)

1959 Refrigerator

I was working in Iraq when I found a vintage refrigerator on Craigslist located near San Franciso, Ca. I inquired about it and found it something that I wished to buy and the price was reasonable. I began to look for a way to have it shipped to Tampa, florida. Mos of the conventional shippers/freight companies were very expensive. I thought I would give UShip.com a try even though I have read some ...

Moved a Vintage Skeeball machine from TN to MD

After not knowing how I could possibly ship a vintage Skeeball arcade game that I had won on eBay, I stumbled upon uShip site. Wow -- what a phenomenal service! In less than 24 hours I had a commitment from someone who would pick up my game outside Nashville and deliver it to my home in Maryland. I found his price fair, and he was very punctual. I have already told a few people about uShip... ...

fantastic

UShip was recommended by some friends, jumped online and within minuets had stuff set up and soon after started to get bids in for my shipment. a week later, product delivered. no hassles, no worries. The iphone app does not work too great though.

Novice mover loves uShip

I won a lovely old server on e-bay for a very nice price. I had never shipped anything heavy or oversized like it before. Problem was, I live in Texas and the server was in New Jersey! I got on uShip, read about the carriers in the area, and decided to go with the guy that all his customers were raving about. It arrived just fine, packed like nothing I've ever witnessed before and in a timely m ...

moving

in the past i have had very bad experiences with movers. they give you one rate - then when they have your things - they announce that there will be an additional charge , for whatever reason they decide. you are stuck because they hold your possessions hostage.-- not the case here, i would not hesitate to use this service again.

terrific!

First time user, and felt like I got a great price and terrific service from an indepedent, family-owned mover that I'd never have found on my own.

new experience

U ship was a new experience that i found by searching for a local mover for my daughter to her first job. I loved the experience and the mover we hired was awesome. Since this was my first experience they answered all my questions and were very patient. They kept the lines of communication open and were very efficient. We were shipping a stored 1 bedroom apt in an indoor storage facility. I w ...

Shipping 15 boxes of household goods

Enjoyed the personal service and didn't worry about my boxes getting thrown around, as I would have with UPS...saved about 30% and will use uShip again.

Great experience shipping my cabinet.

My grandmother passed away and left me her china cabinet 2000+ miles away. This cabinet is priceless to me, so I had an extremely difficult time trying to figure out how to get it to me in one piece. I was a little leery on using uShip, but the experience was amazing. The price, the care and the quickness of the company helped put my mind at ease. Thanks!

MId-century antiques

Found exactly the pieces I was looking for, a dresser and credenza BUT all the way in Florida. Half the battle was to make sure the seller comes through legit, this being a craigs list buy and makes contact with the shipper. The bids were all over the place and in the end I picked one that made most sense, since the shipper (Wayne) lived in the same town and was ready to go. I probably saved 3 ...

Household item to collect & deliver

i have never used this service before but (& I know people say it, but I really mean it) it was so easy & simple to Ioad details, receive bids, accept bid & have the item delivered. I was worried how I was going to collect the item but this made it all so simple & easy. Thank you for a great service.

Moving new bed from Stirling to Cumbria

I had A new Bed that I wanted to move to my Caravan in Cumbria but was not sure of the best way to get this done at a reasonable price. I went on the internet and came up with UShip. The instructions were very clear and I soon had a very good bid from RaymondMathieson. Raymond and his team arrived on time and soon loaded the bed on to his van and set of. I had to be at the Caravan when Raymond a ...

1st Time

This was our 1st time using uShip. We bought a sectional in Green Bay and we live in MN. We had no idea how to get the furniture home...until someone told us about uShip. What a great service. I would definitely use this again!!!

who knew it was this easy?!

We found uShip on the internet during a very stressful move that required an intermediate shipment, and were initially very skeptical of this...but desperately needed to get an odd-sized shipment from A to B. We received bids from two shippers and chose PennAntique based on price and their past feedback. They were EXCELLENT, cost-effective, and a pleasure to work with. We saved money (north of ...

Robert Benedict: "uShipper" Extraordinaire!

My feedback for Robert Benedict couldn't possibly be positive enough to accurately convey what a fantastic experience we had with him. He was incredibly professional, always punctual, very communicative, and unflappable in the face of more than a few "curve balls" we threw his way. Our shipment ended up being larger than initially described? No problem. Can you help us move some furniture ou ...

furniture

the furniture was picked up from an empty apartment in florida and brought to my house. they were very nice and i had no problems.

For a first time shipper, it couldn't have gone better

Was connected up with just the right shipper...Shlomo Ben Yaacov of Artisan Shipping Co. Inc. He was great to work with, and his price was fair. After getting prices that I thought were outrageous from The UPS Store and others, I decided to give uShip a try. Got 3 bidders, including Artisan. Within minutes of accepting the bid, I got a call from Shlomo to set up the pick-up. He picked up ...

Got delivered 4 pieces of furniture from Stirling to Bucks

I buy furniture on eBay and up until recently I picked up items myself. 3 weeks ago I bought a pair of lovely solid wood Oriental wardrobes with matching side tables. Unfortunately the items were located in Stirling which is 400 miles away from my place. After a long and painful search I found uShip through Google search engine. The site is very user friendly, there is no pre-pay. I got several bi ...

1st Time for uShip

I'm a 1st time user but this site made it easy to find several possible shippers and I was able to find one that was excellent.

Not too bad for the first time.

I suppose the first time should be taken as a learning experience however in that sense the transaction was only a minor loss. I bought a lawn mower 800+ miles from home because the price was all right and shipping it U-ship appeared to be the most cost-effective way. I saved a little using U-ship because I was in an Ebay frame of mind when placing the order and unfortunately placed "book it now ...

U Ship: Feedback is Critical

I have worked with UShip three times. Twice I used people who had great feedback. Once, I took a chance. Big mistake. So I have learned: UShip is a wonderful service, but it is critical to read the feedback and go with your intuition. If it feels wrong, don't do it. There are lots of very nice people who work with UShip, which is why feedback is so important. I highly recommend this website, but ...

Shipping of Large Screen TV

I posted the bid, Tony responded quickly, picked up as agreed and delivered safely to its destination.

Large arcade system

Easiest shipping service I have ever delt with. No arcane entry system, no "broker" looking for an inflated commission. Just flat auction rates and open bidding. Follow the requirements and you'll have an extremely simple time booking a shipment. Be as exact in your description and ALWAYS include pictures of the actual item. Great service!

queen size tempurpedic mattress, shipped cross country

I moved from Pittsburgh to San Francisco, with only what I could carry in my car, leaving my precious queen size tempurpedic mattress is the care of one of my friends. Using uship, I was able to hire thzig to pick up the mattress from my friend in Pittsburgh and deliver it to me in San Francisco, with no problems and at a reasonable price. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Phoenix to Detroit

We had a number of items from an estate, items ranging from large and heavy furniture to fragile china and clocks. Royce was very helpful, courteous, prompt, responsive, and careful with our shipment. We would certainly use his services again!

Shipping Range

Great experience shipping range. I was out of town during the bidding & shipping process & Jared made it so easy for me to handle despite not even being around! Would use him again!!

CA to Kentucky 4th of July

In the end all went well. Could not reach them by phone nor could I leave any message. It was the July 4th weekend and I paniced NOT knowing if they would pick-up on time. Communication was a BIG problem but in the end they came through on time and delivered to my destination by contacting me when the driver showed up. All was well and I'm satisfied and woul;d recommend them highly.

The Stove has arrived! yay!

I am happy to report that my experience with uship and Wade was very positive. I did enter the whole process very anxiously, having never done this before. I made the arrangements, and Wade picked up my Mother-in-laws stove in Florida and delivered it to my son in Ohio. Both family members on either end of the move felt Wade had kept us informed as to schedule, arrived when he said he would, ...

Very good 1st time experience w/ uShip

Posted our request for shipping merchandise weighing 1500 lbs in the morning. By the late afternoon we received four bids. Took the lowest bid with the carrier with very good recommendations, LDM International. LDM saved us $300 by biding that much less than the sales merchant quoted us for the same service. Uship's website made it easy and efficient. After some initial difficulties with LDM in se ...

Florida to Kentucky move

This man showed up in FL. the minute he said he would be there. The weather was absolutely boiling hot and humid outside. He picked up and moved everything I had by himself, which I didn't think was humanily possible. I have never seen such a strong man, hardworking man! I never thought he could move these two pieces of very expensive furniture by himself because they were so VERY HEAVY and AW ...

Desk from Atlanta to New York

My son lives in Atlanta and had a beautiful desk that he wanted to put into storage or give to his mother for her use,we live on Long Island. I did not know how I was going to get it here. My Daughter-in-law suggested I check the web for a carrier who might specialize in small interstate shipments. Decided on UShip and everything fell into line. Four days later the desk is sitting in our home offi ...

Easy to use

Very Quickly, Sold large item on Ebay, agreed with buyer to find courier to take it to London, broused the internet, looked at uShip, looked easy enough to operate. Got a few bids in quicky, accepted one and as the saying goes "Bob's your uncle" It is an easy enough system to work and will use it again.

Moving Grandma's "Stuff"

Our daughters in Texas wanted some of their late grandmother's furniture and paintings, so we needed a way to get them there without breaking the bank. Found uShip on the web, took a chance and did some research. Liked what I saw, put out the info and received 4 bids almost immediately. Bids were spread over a large range of dollars, and being a cheap SOB, I leaned toward the lower end. But I r ...

Uship Services

Uship provides a great service. Their site is friendly, easy to use and it saves lot of time. I was able to find someone who could move my furniture in one day. Company who helped us with move did an excellent job. I would definitely use uship and service provider again.

I shipped my $7K range at an amazing price.

I was able to ship my range at half price, compared to other quotes. Love the site and now a lifetime member.

Terrific

I had several heavy items--couch, antique bed and frame--that I needed to move. I posted the shipment and had bids immediately. One of the bids was for two days after the posting, but it was the right price and right time so I accepted. It all went incredibly smoothly. I have used Uship before and I will use it again! And I saved a ton of money.
