Experience shipping a container overseas
I shipped a 20 ft container from Los Angeles to Italy filled with personal items. Shipping anything of this size was entirely new to me and I was quite uncertain as to how to proceed and who to hire. I found U Ship and thought it was a safe route to use a service where several shippers could bid for your business and where you could compare before buying. I went with American Worldwide and when it ...

First U-ship
A friend told me how she moved a few items on U-ship a few weeks back. As I was getting ready for a move, I thought that I would give U-ship a shot. It was very easy to navigate the website and their were enough bids for my one bedrooom furniture move. The move went very well and pain free.
I am a U-ship fan for life.

Move from Boston to Southern California
I moved my apartment from Boston and the company was on time and my property was undamaged. They were great to deal with and did everything as promised. The office staff was fantastic and kept me up-to-date with times and days and the movers took care of my belongings. I would highly recommend this company and will use again if needed.

Found a good offer
Found a good offer using this service for moving a small 1 bd apartment stuff for 200 miles. The bid was overpriced by 60 (advancement) + 10 dollars (website service fee), though. I am not sure the advancement fee will really transfered for the shipping company.

Much, much easier than doing it myself!!
I recently acquired a job in Clearwater, FL. I had to move my entire group of belongings from Glasgow, KY (826 miles)!! My new landlord turned me on to U-Ship & it was a breeze from that point on. I'll be telling everyone about this service!!

Great experience w/furniture and misc
I think I put it all in my description - these two were great. Even had help on the drop end to assist on the unload. I would highly recommend using these two. Pete and Angela were not only careful in handling the goods, they were just pleasant as all heck to talk to when they were here. Shipping a condo worth of stuff from KY to MI that arelative was getting rid of. Last minute I tried Uship a ...

Excellent experience using uShip
uShip really helped me to find the right, affordable, and dependable movers and I would recommend this service to anyone. Thanks.

Uship saved me hundreds
I would have spent a lot more money if I rented a UHaul truck or towed my car. I saved lots of money by using Uship and I recommend it very highly for anyone moving anything. Thanks Uship!

My Cross Country Move
I just moved from Los Angeles to Penn State.
Uship greatly simplified the process. I'm a fan for life.

One bedroom
One bad and one good experience. I think it would be helpful to provide additional information on the service provider. Bonding and insurance details should be required so that those with goods to be shipped are aware. The first service provider was terrible and I had to pay more money to have my items removed from my apartment before the lease was up because they did not pick it up in time. ...

Great Experience!!
I needed to get my furniture & personal items from Florida to New Hampshire. After checking with movers I had heard of before, I realized it was going to be quite expensive. I put my request out for bid and Eastman Transport responded with a quote that was almost half the cost of most of the other movers. After choosing Eastman, I received calls and emails to keep me up to date on the move. Dave ...

Large studio apartment
We had a variety of items to move more than 180 miles. Peter was very upbeat and postive about getting everything packed and unloaded. We don't have a truck and were not looking forward to renting a truck and driving ourselves. Using a service provider made this situation so much easier. We will definitely use this service again - it was a very seamless turnkey solution for us and our move.

Shipping Experience
I am very happy I "stumbled" upon this service. It made my move from Baltimore to Minneapolis, in the midst of a stressful relationship breakup, so easy for me. I've already recommended UShip to a few of my friends. Thank you!

Smooth move for my sister
I just completed moving my sister to North Carolina for school. Juan (our mover) was everything we needed to make the move go smoothly. He stayed in communication with us, and completed the move exactly as we hoped. Having to organize everything for her, I assumed it would be somewhat of a pain, but Juan was great and was very flexible with all our needs. I have had a great UShip experience, a ...

Great experience shipping my furnitures
Since I found a new job after my graduation, I had to move my family to a new city. My wife found the uShip site, and we tried. We saved almost $500 using uShip. And the movers did a great job. We really appreciate the help from uShip, and we would like to use uShip again in the future.

Saved me $400 and was a great move
I initially received a bid of $1050 for a 1 bedroom house from Austin to Dallas. I heard about uShip from a business school class, and decided to check it out. Well, my move was bid down to $650 and I know I received the best move of the 5 I've had in the last 10 years. What a great site. Loved the interface, loved the experience!
I hope I don't move for a while, but if I do, it'll be uShip onc ...

Thanks, uShip!
I discovered uShip by just randomly searching for sites similar to what I ended up finding. I shipped a single bedroom from an apartment in Sherman Oaks, CA to Las Vegas, NV, where I am living in a house with an old distant friend, and soon-to-be roommates. I appreciate the functionality of uShip and all of its features. I saved AT LEAST $500. The movers were friendly and experienced, and they ...

I've been everywhere man,,,
Moved from Tampa to Houston, just two months ago I moved from Nashville to Temple Tx and now that I have found uShip I will never go anywhere else. I was in a binde to find a mover with in 2 weeks and I only have a 1 bed room. I had 3 bids in the first day! I picked a mover and they made the move...
Thanks again,

Great moving experience
We used U-Ship to transport a vehicle and household items from PA to FL. The transaction was seemless. The only thing I need to point out is that U-Ship gets the initial deposit...not the service provider. Despite that being said our service provider BigJoe worked out that fact into the contract that we set forth and deducted the amount U-Ship charged us. Now that I have BigJoes contact inform ...

Great Experience
We were looking to move so we called movers in the yellow pages of the phone book. They all wanted at least $1,000. I decided to look around on google and found Uship. I placed my ad and then I started recieving bids. I landed on Carolina Piano Movers and not only were they willing to do it for a fraction of the cost, but they were just as good if not better than any other mover.

Emergency Move.
I was forced to make a move suddenly when my daughters school district boundaries were moved and the schools enrollement capped. I needed to move into the new district before she was considered a "new" student or she would have had to attend a less desirable school, farther way. As a result, a process that would have probably taken me a couple of months was truncated to 2 weeks. Add to this th ...

Awesome experience shipping my things
I had to make a big move and wasn't able to ship my things. All my household goods had to be put in storage.It was a struggle trying to find a price that I could afford. I was getting quotes ranging from $1,100 to $1,300. A friend told me about uShip so I did and within 2 days of posting I found a match. ProHydrofuelHaulers were able to match my asking price and was able to ship it during the time ...

Very good experience moving furniture
We needed to get living room and bedroom furniture moved from San Antonio to Austin. Erin did a very good job for us. He contacted us early on and was easy to work with. The furniture was picked up and loaded by late morning and delivered in early afternoon. This was just the kind of service we were looking for.

I got the best price match on uShip!
I needed to move my furniture across several states. When I contacted several commercial movers I got astronomical prices. uShip gave me the opportunity to match with a mover who provided his service for a great price. Users' comments helped me tremendously in landing the best possible match. Overall I saved at least $1000 by using uShip!

Great experience shipping our household goods
This shipper (mover) did an excellent job of moving our household items with care. Not one item we packed ended up broken and not once scratch on any of our household furnishings...We were very pleased with this movers service and abililites.

Fee
I was blindsided by a much larger "deposit" than I thought I was gonna have to spend....since uship added another $30 tacked on at the last minute with the deposit I paid I was unhappy with that and would not use the site again. I was happy with the person who helped me, and now that I have their contact I don't need this site and their last minute tacked on fee anymore thanks.

forced relocation after job loss...mortgage crash!
My husband and I were forced to relocate to the mid west (where family lived) after job lay offs when the mortgage market crashed. At the time we had to put everything we owned in storage and could only bring a few limited items for the move since we were going to be living with family for a little while. Our hope was to afford to bring everything back with us asap but as funds were very limited, ...

Good experience when moving
I am a first time user of U-ship and found the whole experience very user friendly and efficient. U-ship provides a great way to contact movers. I used it to move all of my personal belongings from one apartment to another, about three hours apart. I would use U-ship again and recommend it to others. All of my belongings arrived in mint condition as promised.

Outstanding all day local move..

Clueless about moving...
I needed to move a fairly small amount of stuff (a 1 bedroom apt) across country, from Philly to LA, and the research I initially did really had me worried. Most advice I got said that I should go with a local company, but many local companies, even reputable ones, have to charge a lot for cross-country moves because they don't do regular back and forth shipments to make it worth the trip. However ...

Our Move
We moved out of a studio bedroom into a big one bedroom. We had a lot of bookshelves, a huge dresser (with a mirror on top) a computer desk lots of boxes and trash bags. Going on Uship was the best thing for us. Moving is stressful enough and finding movers doubles that. Uship took away our stress and made it easy for us to find a moving company. We used Jully Movers and they were excellent! Alber ...

I was in Baltimore without a bed...
...then Robert's wife called and said they'd be at my house tomorrow! Wow, they weren't supposed to be here for 3-4 more days.
A hung-over bum puked in the alley next to my home; the smell was horrible. These people KEPT WORKING!
Fast and good at what they do...highly recommend.

Great Apartment Move.
I was kinda worried about it being just one guy, but once I explained by recovery from my surgery, the fellow really wanted to help me so he brought some help along and really got the job done. I'm very glad I went with this service, and the person who did my move.

Great experience moving my storage and apartment to my house
These guys were able to take my job at the last minute. They drove from LA to San Diego. Except for unforeseen traffic holdups they were quite punctual. They called to keep me posted. By the time we got to my 10 x 5 storage which also had to be moved, we only had 20 minutes to clear everything out. I seriously had my doubts they could do it...boy was I wrong! These guys hustled, they were amazing! ...

Couldn't have asked for a better experience!
I moved from California to Connecticut on May 30th. I placed a bid on uShip only two weeks prior because I was very uncertain about using the service. My brother had two great experiences and said to trust my instinct and read the user feedback. I knew not to take the lowest bid necessarily & figured I would be paying about $800 minimum. Rodney, my driver, had posted the lowest bid (which of co ...

Good Move
These guys definitely hustled moving my apartment. They didn't waste a second in moving any items. Only downside, they were about a half an hour late but called to let me know they had truck problems. I would use this provider again.

Great experience shipping my furniture.
We were moving from Al to Tx. There was a slight mix up about when the Tx residence would be available. It was delayed by one day. The mover rearranged his schedule and was able to accomodate us. They arrived on time. They were also cordial but professional. They kept in contact during the entire delivery period. I am happy I tried UShip again.
My first experience wasn't as nice. The mover got u ...

Wanted to move fast, and they did it!
When my landlord walked into my one bedroom apartment without even knocking, much less notice, I'd had enough. Maxon Movers Inc. (maxonmove.com) was there the next day, and had me packed, shipped, and unpacked in six hours! They were extremely courteous, neat, and carried all the supplies necessary in case I'd forgotten anything (which I did- shipping tape, actually!).

Good Experience
I've never looked into hiring movers before and I think using Uship was fantastic. I received several quotes and had no problem being matched with a mover who suited my needs. Would definitely use again and LOVE the feedback feature.

I moved across country.
I moved back to California after two and a half years in Kansas. I settled on J&S Moving due to Seth's responsiveness during our initial conversations. I had a terrible experience with a prior move and wanted to be sure it was not repeated. I was not taking occupancy on my new place for a week or two after my things were delivered, so I had to have faith that the move was properly completed. W ...

A Trial Story - Moved from St Louis, MO to Dallas, TX
I was offered a job that was too good to be true and had to move quickly. I took whatever I could and left for Dallas to start my new job. I then looked for a shipper to ship a few items but they were too expensive. I looked on google to find other shippers and found uship. It was interesting and did not really know what this was all about but thought I would try it. I posted a bid and low and beh ...

Ease of Service
We moved from Richmond, VA to Scottsdale, AZ, and our shipment was delivered on the exact date we arrived after driving across country. We did have one casualty with a missing black shelf, but overall our belongings arrived in mint condition. Our U-Ship bid matched the service we received, and Legal Transportation helped make our move across country seamless. Thanks!!

Mutually beneficial experience
I had a move from Chicago to Denver, and my shipper happened to have also moved the same direction and was traveling back and forth with his own 26-ft truck. Most of my quotes for moving from regular moving companies were in the $800-$1000 range for a couple dozen boxes and a couple furniture items. I spent half that amount. My shipper benefited with some extra income for a trip he was going to ...

Great experience shipping my furniture and personal belongings
My husband died three years ago and the one bedroom apt of stuff is all I have left after thirty-five years. These few belongings mean the world to me. I needed them brought here to Az. I considerd driving and moving them my self but no matter how I tried to cut cost the best I felt I could get by with was about $2000.00 plus miss two weeks of work. Within a couple of hours I got the bid thru ushi ...

Move to storage
I am glad that I hired Eric as my mover. He was easy to communicate with and was extremely accommodating when I changed the date and time. Eric was on time and handled my furniture and personal belongings with care. I will most definitely hire Eric the next time I need anything to be moved.

Move from Calif to Fla.
Moved one bedroom apartment. Load was larger than projected, and therefore cost more than anticipated. Pick up team was great. Delivery team was in communication throughout. UShip is a great service and allowed for me to review several bids. Used UShip to move to Calif. from Fla. and experience was positive then, too. Will use again. Thanks.
