24 ft. pontoon to TX

Henri of DRP Enterprises is your man! Can't say enough of the care and consideration he had for us and our boat. Even when his truck broke down, he didn't quit! Friendly and courteous, a great guy all around. Our small gratuity was more like a gesture,.....we hope you choose him, THAT is our payback!

Great experience after shaky start

My original service provider didn't work out. After agreeing to pick up our boat on a certain date, I was unable to reach him, and cancelled his service. My follow-up booking worked out wonderfully though. I will use uship again in the future. Thanks!!

Pontoon Boat - Good, but, difficult Transport

We bought a Pontoon boat with trailer on ebay. I expected to pick it up, however, I had unexpected health problems and decided to get it transported, started searching and getting prices OH BOY! My daughter told me about uship, I tried it finding out that I could save $1000 or more got my attention. I had 4 bids within hours and more the following day. The profiles and associated ratings along ...

Scared but excited as a 1st time user of Uship for transporting my boat and trailer from MD to LA

I was a 1st time buyer of goods on EBay and an Uship customer. Uship provides an avenue for the novice and experienced buyer of goods and/or services within the transportation field at ones fingertips. Being leery of on-line bidding and the transport of ones personal possessions was unnerving to say the least. I placed my 1997 Quantum 18' boat and trailer on Uship not knowing what to expect. To my ...

Top of the line service

boat

I need my boat moved and decided to try this service for the first time. I did not have time to get it my self so i posted it and had response's immediatly. I wish I knew about this sight a year ago, I could have hired more stuff done or even posted my own bids when i picked up the other stuff I've bought.

Amazingly easy to ship large object cross-country.

My father needed to give his grandchildren the catamaran that his father enjoyed with him. The snag: they lived in California 2500 miles away from the boat. A friend of a friend mentioned he had read an article about a unique online shipping service. After a bit of research we learned that it was indeed legitimate, easy to use, and efficient. The shipment was quickly arranged for an amazing pr ...

Great experience with our houseboat.

We have a 43 foot houseboat which we needed out of the water and Matt came to our rescue. He was wonderful. He was so patient with us because we were manic over this. We had never done anything like this before and he took the time after delivering to show us how to block and secure our boat. He had the patience of a saint. I would recommend him to anyone out there because of the care he took ...

Boat from AL to IL

Uship was convenient and easy! I can't wait to utilize this great resource again! We spent 4 weeks trying to organize a 30 foot boat shipment from the golf of AL to the TOP of IL and our shippers made the final details flawless! Thank you again Uship!

UNREAL, THE BEST EVER

Ship my woody!

JOE pulled my boat from LA to Portland, ORE. He was in constant communication with the previous owner and myself. I was never out of the loop during the entire move. He picked the boat up and stored it in their secured lot. I had flexibility in my time frame which allowed him to spend the holiday with his family. (He knows what's important) Joe called and said delivery would be in the aftern ...

34 Foot Long Canoe - Not your average shipment

I wasn't sure what luck I was going to have trying to ship such an awkward item. I mean 34' is long! To my pleasant surprise, I got 7 bids in 24 hours and a very competitive bid from a local guy who was already in town with a 40' empty flatbed. I read through his feedback and it was all positive so I knew I could trust him. Everything worked out perfectly and it was also cool that I coul ...

Mark's Service is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!

I had hired another company to pick up and deliver this boat to me. They (Tropican Transportation) the other company's driver called me and ask me if I could have the place where the boat was located to wait on him. I paid them to wait on the driver. He picked up the boat hauled it down the road aways and said that their was something wrong with the trailer brakes and took the boat back and left ...

1996 Seadoo Boat

From the moment that I signed on with this company I felt so good about them. They kept me updated in reguards to there where abouts. The security that you want with transporting a boat. They were very accomidating, friendly and really made me feel good and safe with the transaction to the delivery. They really made me feel like a part of the family.They are just sooo wonderful. I can't say enough ...

The great houseboat move!!!

I was referred to uShip after purchasing a houseboat 500 miles from my home, which needed delivered. Although I received a number bids immediately, Jim Baum, whose bid I accepted, was not only reasonable cost wise, but the only one who asked about the serviceability of the trailer being used to make the move. As it turns out, the seller of the houseboat wan't honest in describing the trailer or si ...

Uship is a valuble tool

I was able to secure shipping in a matter of hours to get a boat puchase delivered to Texas from Minnisota, It was picked up in 1 day and delivered the next day without incident and so I could get it sold quickly, and Time is money. So this service provided me with a valuble tool and the confidence to purchase anything anywhere , anytime. Thanks to all that have made this site work I look forward ...

Very Good Experience

I had a bit of a rough time with some of the other bidders, but once I was able to lock down my exact shipping dates and weights, it's drastically improved

Very positive Experience shipping my boat and canoe

Mark was a great guy to work with. He met all of our expectations and more. The boat and canoe belonged to my dad before he passed away and held a great deal of sentimental value. I was nervous about getting them to Colorado from Michigan but everything worked out great. Thanks Mark! Doug Bowman

boat and trailer

My shipper did an innovative thing, he put the boat and trailer on top of his truck, saving 800 miles of mileage on the trailer and possibly wiping the bearings on a trailer of unknown origin. package arrived quickly and in good shape.

Moving water bikes

Did purchase 6 water bikes over internet and needed to move them from the seller at Tennesy to Miami Florida and from there to Puerto Rico.Jason offered the best price. He send me photos of them and delivered in a timely manner. He called frequently before, during and after the delivery. We arranged for Western Union payment. That worked out fine, given that we live in Connecticut. Thank you Jason ...

Boat Delivery

The entire experience with U-Ship and E&D Trucking was very positive. While we had initial delivery issues with my marina, Dave worked around the issue and met the necessary deadline. The communication was very good through U-Ship to me and back to E&D Trucking. The only minor issue was in setting up charges to go through my credit card vs. bank draft, but when I mentioned it to Customer Service, ...

Fantastic experience in shipping my boat!

I shipped my boat (Boston Whaler Conquest) from Pompano beach, Fl to Tarpon Springs, Fl. I found this shipping website through search engine, Google. The website was very easy to navigate. I got a lot of bids, which were very competitive to local companies. I used one of the shippers from this service, which was Dependable Movers company. My shipment and transaction went well. I am fully satisfied ...

Nothing But "AMAZING!"

I ship, almost on a daily basis and have been shipping for the past 28 years. I'm always leery of a company I don't know, because they have no track record. These guys did everything they said they would do. They communicated through the whole process, they delivered on time - That was huge. They delivered without any damage. I highly recommend them. Very courteous and responsible. Thanks Brian an ...

8' AB inflatable. New England to Florida.

bought a used AB inflatable boat from an ebay seller in RI. great deal. listed my shipment on Uship and within 12 hours had a great bid from Craigco shipping. Carla was perfect. had very tight time lines that they were able to work within. got the boat here in great shape. shippers even took it out of the truck and put it in the hotel room with them over night so it wouldn't be damaged. ...

I looked up UShip on the internet , placed my ad , and took bids on my shipment .I never would have found a good transport company with out UShip . I've never moved a boat this big before so I was a little intimated .It was very easy .Thanks to UShip.

Great Experience shipping my new Ranger Boat

I just purchased a new boat and wanted to receive it in time to fish in a tournament. I did not have very much time to work with and this was my first time to use UShip. I was a little skeptical, espically sience I did not want to spend very much money. I did finally accept a bid late one night for a pick up the next day. The shipper had already left for another job and forgot to cancel their b ...

19 ft. Pontoon Boat

I purchased boat Friday in Belleville Illinois & sent cashier's check that day. Check arrived at dealer monday at 3:00 pm. Mark had my boat in Hemphill Texas at 3:00 pm Tuesday. Twenty four hours from when payment was received and it was just as expected. Good job Mark.

Great experience shipping boat

I was a little hesitant using an internet site to ship our boat. The experience was wonderful and the shipper was fantastic!

On time, Professional

Keith was both professional and friendly. On time delivery. I recomend him highly, He was on time, and helpful. I will use him again.

Boat shipment

Something new to me..I really liked the way it worked. Quite a novel way of linking people in need with the people that are capable of providing this type of service. It was very easy to do, even for a first timer like myself. I would recommend this way of shipping to others.

Ecellent service

We needed to ship a dredge from California to Idaho. The machine was to tall to load on a lowboy and the only other choice was to have someone pull it with a truck. We used uShip for the first time for this shipment. We hired Duff trucking for this pull. We could not have been more satisfied with his service. Robert is a professional driver that ensures your shipment will deliver safe and on time. ...

Low feedback did an awesome job!

I won a bid on Ebay for a boat trailer and needed it shipped from Utah to Dallas Texas.I paid a little more for the trailer than expected so I needed a low shipping quote.I used uship about a year ago and needed there service again.I put the bid out as 600 dollars max and all bids where a 1000 dollars up until a shipper named Jeremy Glover put a 676 dollar bid in.I was a little worried about his l ...

I saved alot of time and money...I will be using uShip again in the future. Thanks for allowing me to receive my boat without the headaches of delivery.....

Dragon Boats are not you usual load.

We import dragon boats from China. The sport of dragon boat racing is just catching on in the USA and the demand for boats is high. They are about four feet wide, 41 feet long and two feet deep. They don't weigh much, just 700 pounds each, but they are fragile and delicate and require extra care. They are not something that you can really ship via FedEx, it takes someone who has experience ...

Good first experience with uShip!!

My wife and I purchased a boat on an auction site. After making the arrangements for payment we drove over 600 miles to see our boat. We loved it and now had the problem of getting the boat from IL to TN. Without a trailer to haul our boat, we had to rely on a secondary party to transport our boat from IL to TN. We talked about using a shipping service but didn't know if we could trust the ser ...

34' Chris Craft Aquahome

EMITransports was excellent from the starting bid to delivery. I am very well pleased with uship and EMI. I would recommend both services to anyone. joe

Three boats Dallas to Phoenix

My dad gave me his 17' ski boat, a 14' sail boat and a 14' canoe as a wedding gift (and since he had sold his lake house). This left me with a dilemma, how to get the boats from Dallas to Phoenix without spending more than the boats are worth... The Ski boat and the sail boat both have good trailers and the canoe can be strapped to the sailboat or the top of a car so I decided to have a frie ...

Shipped my boat with care and concern. Thanks !

Bought a boat + trailer from a man in Baltimore, MD through eBay, wondering "just how crazy am I ?" You are always afraid that you might be "buying a pig in a poke" as it is, then you have the concern of someone shipping this home to me not knowing how THAT will turn out! Jim may have sensed my concerns, as he inspected the boat + trailer before leaving, comunicating his findings and the preca ...

Great experience shipping canoes

I have used uship many times now and have only had good experiences. The drivers have been responsible, polite and considerate. I like this service and have recommended it to others.

Fantastic shipping experience

This company is first class all the way. They take great care of your shipment and stay in touch with you throughout the move. The price you get will be near the lowest if not the lowest; the service you get will be the BEST. Truly professionals!

Easy Boat Shipment

Thanks, uship, for the great, easy experience of shipping our driftboat to Alaska. We haved over $1500. JFJ

Chris Craft Runabout

We finally sold our Chris Craft and we had to get it from Idaho to OK. We received bids all across the board. Trying to conserve a couple hundred bucks I almost went with the lowest bidder. When I logged back in to uShip i found that these turkeys were kicked off uship and "de-ported"! So.......thanks heavens we went with David. No micky mouse. Professional, curtious and got the job done qui ...

The Trailer from Hell

It's a heavy gooseneck trailer with oversized trailers. This makes it difficult to load onto a flatbed. With some help from the shipper's end to back up the trailer onto the flat bed, Jermiah definitely pulled this off. I took some video short clips that I will send to Jermiah so maybe he can demonstate for other shippers. I would trust this man to ship anything ever in the future.

Shipping bulky duck boat

Purchased duck boat on Ebay and needed it shipped. Uship was able to come through with a great price on a bulky item. Thanks

Shipping the unusual

My mom bought a rowing boat on Ebay for a birthday present for my father. The only issue; it was almost 500 miles from home. I tried contacting several shippers, but due to the unusual size I was unable to get an accurate quote. At this point it looked like I would be taking a road trip. Enter Uship. A first time user, I really didn't expect much when I listed the boat. Boy, was I wrong. I had sev ...

Small boat shipping!

I found a great deal on Ebay on a small dinghy or tender. The problem was, it was in Portland, Or, and I live in Southern Illinois. The manufacturer suggested using uship. An overall great thing. The shipper got the boat early so he arrived here ahead of schedule. He kept me informed of the progress and got here when he said he would. The boat is in great shape.. and was on his trailor! Not havin ...

UShip made it easy

I purchased an air boat in Florida and needed to get it to New Hampshire. I found uShip on line and posted the add. I was pleased with the service, response time and how simple they made the whole thing happen. I will use uShip in the future.
