Good Experience Moving Home from College

When my daughter graduated from college, we needed to move her furniture from Colorado to Georgia. This consisted of one bedroom - a queen mattress & box springs, bedside table, desk & chair, dresser and framed pictures, books, lamps, etc. There was also other furniture - tv table, small printer table, and a kitchen table & chairs which had been disassembled and re-packed in it's original cart ...

Great experience; very nice people!

This was the first time that I used Uship.com, and I chose Michael Frear (Sempter Fi Haulers) based on the positive reviews. Michael was very flexible, and he did a great job. Michael also telephoned to let us know he was having some car trouble, and because we were also quite flexible, it was no problem at all. I'd definitely recommend Semper Fi Haulers!

My story

I really had very bad experience with the UShip in 2007. I stopped using them but I gave them another opportuntity this month and finally I was to find a good mover.

Daybed

This was my first time using Uship. I had NO IDEA how I was going to ship a daybed from my Aunt's in South Carolina to Florida. Everything else like UPS, FEDEX, train, air, we all too expensive. I came across Uship on the internet and it was reasonable and an incredible resourse that I will continue using in the future. I have already told my friends and family about it! The company that I ch ...

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 ...

Oy! Such a great shipper!

On time Pickup, on time delivery, excellent update status via e-mail. "White Glove" service. I will defineately use again whould the need arise.

high school yearbooks

I have used uship two years in a row now, saving me about $800 each time compared to having the printing company arrange shipment. I like the personal nature of it, too, knowing exactly who I am dealing with, and being able to check on the status of a job and clarify any details. I will certainly use it every time I have a large shipment to schedule.

Very good experience shipping craigslist purchase

I bought cast concrete fountain pieces via craigslist from a church about 60 miles away. I as able to move all but three of the pieces which weighed so much a forklift to move them. I was able to arrange with michaelsmarine to pick up the pieces and deliver them with no hassle. This was my first experience completing a transaction using Uship. I am very pleased with the Uship service and the ...

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.

Shipping very heavy table saw

I had a very heavy table saw - over 350 pounds - sitting in my basement for several years. My fathter-in-law recently retired and during a visit he spotted the saw and expressed interest in it. We live in Ohio, he lives in NH. He agreed to pay for the shipping if we could find someone to haul it out to him for less than it cost to buy a new one. While I had several offers on USHIP, Jeff Peters' ...

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.

i got my tiller fast

i won this item on ebay.not know how i would get it.i heard about uship first time using uship.it was fast and great.will use again.thanks.

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 ...

My dream stove delivered to my door

For years I have looked through pages and pages of eBay listings for antique gas stoves. I live in NC and all the best stoves seem to be in California. Usually when I would seriously consider purchasing a particular stove on the West Coast, the problem of crating and shipping would rear its ugly head. If I could find a shipper willing to work with me, the price was exorbitant. So I shelved the ide ...

Great experience shipping my washer and dryer

This was my first time using U-Ship and was a great experience we would recommend to others. Also recommend that U-ship seeks advertisement with military one-source.

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 ...

Items from made is safe n sound

Tony was awesome to deal with. Very nice man. He kept in touch from day 1. Would definatly use his services again. We have family in California and are always coming and going between there and Texas. Tony will be a great addition to our adventures between the 2 -----

great service for shipping my 60" TV

Went away to school in Florida, bought a 60 " TV when Circuit City was going out of business. Returning to MD in May and didn't know how I could ship it. Found out about U ship and got a ton of bids. Great to see the feedback- it helped me decide & was very satisfied!

Great service!!!

After much investigation into truck rentals and other avenues for transporting several baby items across several states I decided to consider UShip. I have to say, Uship is a great service. I was very skeptical about using it, but I am so glad I did. My provider was fantastic and I couldn't be more satisfied with the entire process. The information about Uship provided on the website was very ...

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.

FILLING SHIPMENTS AND FINDING DESTINATION AGENTS

I HAD A HALF A TRAILER BOOKED FOR A TRIP FROM NYC TO CALIFORNIA WITH A MONTH BEFORE LOADING. THRU U-SHIP I WAS ABLE TO FILL IN WITH 4 ADDITIONAL SHIPMENTS TO FILL MY TRAILER AND FIND A DEPENDABLE DESTINATION AGENT TO MAKE THE LOCAL DELIVERIES. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMEND U-SHIP TO CARRIERS LOOKING FOR LOADS OR LABOR AND TO CONSUMERS LOOKING TO GET A GREAT DEAL. ADVANTAGE MOVING SYSTEMS.

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

Great Service from NY/Phila based shipper

I simply needed to move 4 treadmills 55 miles down the New Jersey Turnpike to Philadelphia. The weigh about 250lbs each and can fit in a cargo van. After getting a few rediculous quotes, I was offered a reasonable one by Staffordcan but they only had one feedback. However the communication process through Uship went well so I decided to give them a chance. I must say, it was by far, the bes ...

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.

Unparalled Satisfaction!

We had moved from Washington State to Oklahoma in May of 2008. We rented the largest moving truck available and yet still had to leave far too many personal possessions in storage. We finally were in a position to have the items shipped. We only received a couple of bids, but with who we chose we could have only received his and been thrilled! The uShip site allowed us to view all of the neces ...

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 ...

home gym

We had a home gym sent to Ok City and he offered a reasonable price and communicated the times well with both parties.

Recieved my ebay purchase next day!

I purchased an entire drum set on ebay, great deal but it was in Ohio, I'm in Georgia. I listed the item on uship at about 9am Saturday morning, I recieved my drums at 8pm Sunday night. Simply amazing service,

Overall positive experience shipping my furnishings

Antonio was polite, fast and worked with me based on my schedule. I would use him again and would recommend him and his service again.

Shipping large item

I had a large item that I sold on E-bay. It was over the maximum dimensions allowed by UPS by a very small amount. It would have cost considerably more to ship it by truck as it only weighed approx. 40 pounds. I was able to ship it via uShip reasonably and quickly. Very positive experience!

Shipment changed in process

The item being shipped was several awkward and heavy pieces and the shipper had a difficult time with the original pickup time. Brandon worked with the shipper and got the job done, then on the receive end he helped my son unload item. This is a very good shipper.

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.

Great experience !

Compressor was very large and hard to handle. He did everything possible to get it here the way we agreed even if it was not the size he would normally take. We received the compressor and he did assisted at the pick up and at destination to take it off without any damage. Great person to deal with ! Thank You!

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 ...

Wine Cabinet

this was a 600# beast that Leonard somehow loaded himself without scratching it...amazing. He then helped me move it into my house and went above and beyond his call to hlep rearrange it several times.
