Blind faith is a good thing! Nice to know everything went so well! Absolutely wonderful experience with akcbtransport and uShip! Exceeded my expectations-- Pick up exactly as indicated- calls/ communication along the way/ delivery time- all PRECISE! (with call before delivery.) Happy with entire experience from pickup- delivery! Communication vital and akcb transport excellent every step of the ...

We used uShip to get our new (to us) Colgate 26 delivered from Seattle for a reasonable price in time for the peak summer sailing season. Thanks to uShip and DNR transport, Sail Chicago's students and members have another great boat to sail on for the 2012 season.

As a first user to uship I found gm boats great on price and knowledge of moving boats. An absolute joy to deal with. And at a nominal charge he took my trailer back to my home after boat wentin the water. Fab service

Arranged transfer of a wooden , nordic folkboat from Pinmill in Suffolk to Kip Marina in Scotland at relatively short notice. RMSTransport came in with a competitive price and an expertise in boat/yacht transfers judging by their own website case pictures. I was particularly pleased with their punctuality and level of communication throught the 2 days and their helpfulness on arrival. Would hap ...

Excellent service and great to work with. I got exactly what I wanted and paid for. Would definitely use again.

I've used Uship twice. Once for a small fishing boat and a second time for a larger, 32 foot sailboat. The fishing boat was from Longboat Key, Fl to Dallas and the sailboat from Annapolis to Dallas. Both shipments went without a problem. I would however highly recommend that you make sure the transport company you select has current insurance and gives you a DOT number so you can check their s ...

I just finished up the shipment of my new boat, Astraea, from Annapolis, MD to San Diego, CA. She made it all the way in one piece. Now we're cleaning the boat up and getting ready to move aboard. Check out my blog at http://aboardastraea.com for the whole scoop if you're interested.

Being located in Yellowknife, it's difficult to find carriers in the South. uShip made it easy to get bids from several companies I might not have otherwise found.

This was a great way to have found a shipper for myself and my boat. I found it easy to navigate the system and find someone, it tool a lot of worry out of trying to find someone right. Thank you.

Je n'aurai qu'un mot: PARFAIT !! Tout est dit.(Ponctualité, professionnalisme, qualité du matériel de transport, contact avec le transporteur, et prix très correct) Merci Bonne soirée. Cordialement.

We were stuck. Uship saved the day. The winter storms had wrecked our deck and we needed to get our sailboat back to Toronto to the dealer for repair or our racing season was over. Our Toyota Rav4 would never have made the tow as the boat is simply too heavy for such a great distance. We decided we better find a professional or rent a truck. Nothing seemed to be working and we were running out of ...

HSITranportation handled my move. it is a bid of a different situation as boats and trailers are wide. Mark had some good ideas about how to do it. I had a few bids and Mark's was the best. UShip was easy to use. If I need to move my boats again or other large product, i will certainly use the site again... in all, i'm very happy uship is around. i'm not sure how I would have done it otherwis ...

Ich habe ein Boot in New York gekauft. Nachdem ich mit einigen Int. Speditionen in Deutschland versucht habe den Transport zu organisieren habe ich über U Ship Allison in Californien kontaktiert. Top Service, beste Erreichbarkeit und pünkliche Lieferung. Alles wie versprochen , gute Komunikation. Preis auch ok , kann ich wirklich empfehlen.

I was very impressed with the uship service. The website was easy to navigate and there was constant feedback on my bid. The process introduced me to a reliable transport company that was very well priced. The star ratings helped me to find a quality service provider who delivered my boat safely. He was also happy to do the brokering of my sailboat through border customs. I can highly recommend u ...

I moved from Newport News, VA to central Maryland and had to leave my boat behind until I sold my Virginia house and bought one in Maryland. That took over a year but I then had to figure out how to move the boat to my Maryland residence, since it's an oversize load and is also too heavy for my truck to pull. I tried using a boat mover who was recommended to me, but he could not do the job and s ...

Dale's a Johnny-on-the-spot kind of shipper and I'd recommend him to anyone for a shipping job! Thanks Dale!

They did a great job moving our boat in the middle of winter while dodging major snow and ice storms. The boat arrived on time and in perfect condition. The unload was fast and efficient.

Phil was excellent, cooperative, punctual, courteous, professional and flexible with uncertain delivery dates. My 24' sailboat arrived in great condition, right on time, and Phil was very helpful in unloading/launching in unfavorable weather (20 mph wind, 14 wind chill, snow). I would use him again anytime, and would highly recommend him. He really impressed me with his communications and under ...

Great service and easy to use. Helped me find the right shipper for the right price. Everything went as planned and I will use the service again for my future shipping needs. Thanks.

I live in Ohio and bought a boat in Colorado. I did a thorough check out on the boat and cursory check out on the trailer. On the trip to Ohio the trailer had brake problems which blew a tire. The spare had no air pressure. Mr Lift freed up the brakes, bought 4 new tires for the trailer and made it to Ohio safely. Mike you are the BEST! Thank you,

Did not know of any other solutions. Uship provided me the ability to find a competent transport company in a timely manner to solve how I needed to transport a boat I purchased 700 miles away from my home. I am thankful for the resource and recommend using uship.com.

I had been looking all over the country for a compac 16 in my price range. Finally found one in Michigan. Uship gave me the ability to receive multiple competitive bids in order to economically ship my boat.

Steve took excellent care of my boat, securing interior items like they were his own. He was also very helpful to the yard personnel during their unloading process. The yard seemed unfamiliar with a boat with such a wide beam and they didn't have very good equipment. Steve's vast experience and quick actions probably saved a disaster.

I was shipping a Beneteau 331 as I needed to move to Houston for my work. I ran into someone that mentioned that I should try uShip to get a competitive bid for the move. I shopped around asking dealers who they would use and got 3 bids. Then I went to uShip and the bids that I received were almost 40% less the cost and more complete quotes than I had received by myself. I went with Smith' ...

I shipped because the boat was too small for two people to comfortably to sail across the gulf of Mexico. My experience with uShip was excellent. I saved almost 50% using uShip. My service provider did a fantastic job. My boat arrived in excellent shape exactly as it left. He was prompt, Professional and on time and early at both ends. I received several bids. Everyone was polite and profess ...

I found a great deal on a Hobie Cat sailboat in St. Paul, MN. I live in Georgia. I looked into towing the boat with a rental vehicle but had trouble finding a company that would rent a car with a tow hitch except U-Haul, and their price was very expensive. A friend told be about his good experience with U-Ship. I posted a featured ad with a picture and had four bids within 2 hours of posting o ...

We were looking at options for getting our 22 foot sailboat from Long Island to North Port Florida. A Google search brought us to the UShip and we looked over reviews and comments and decided that listing our shipment with UShip was the way to go. We could post a photo of our trailer and boat,take the bids, look at the potential transporters reviews and records and make a decision from there. The ...

Last year my father past away in his will I was left his 1967 Islander Bahama sailboat. She was sitting on a homemade trailer in need of repair, with the much apprecited efforts of Boat Trailer Service in Norfolk VA she got a new trailer. I was going to get it myself but due to a new job and time constraints I was unable to do so. I found out about Uship and put my shipment out there. To make a lo ...

This was our big move - moving the boat (42' sailboat) from a large Texas Lake to Florida. The driver was extremely punctual, helpful all along the way, called us along the route to let us know where he was and how things were going, and showed up 1267 miles later exactly on time as he had predicted. He was very nice and we'd absolutely use his services again if needed.

Bought a CS 36 Merlin out of Annapolis MD and was bringing the boat back to Toronto ON. I decided to ship the boat from Annapolis MD to Kent NY, and then sail the boat from Kent to Toronto. The service provided by uShip was very helpful in arranging the shipping at the lowest price.

I had looked for someone to haul my boat for a long time, my wife found Uship and we figure we give it a try, it worked GREAT! within a few minutes of posting our ad we had several bids, we accepted Bruce because he had the right equipment and had a lot of favorable review, we were not wrong, he turned out to be a really good decision, our boat arrived in great shape and very quickly, we would def ...

I had read about Uship in Wired magazine and only now found the need to use the service. I cannot say enough about how excited I am to have benefitted from the service Uship provides. I was shipping two small sailboats that I purchased on the other side of the country and I was truly stumped on how to economically ship these items after a family member backed out of a planned cross country drive. ...

I place my shipping information on uShip to move my Hunter 216 sailboat and trailer up to my son in Maryland. I received at least six quotes in the first 48 hours. One of the quotes was from a transporter who lived very close to my son in Maryland which made everything much better on the delivery end, so I accepted that quote and from there on everything work out very well!!

Wanted to ship purchased 22 foot sailboat on a trailer from TX to CA - bids ranged from 3K to $900....obviously the $900 bid was the one we went for - good choice! Excellenyt service, communication, delivery. Arrived and very happy,.

I needed a boat trailer picked up, and then a boat loaded on the trailer. This was done over a period of time and quite a few people had to be coordinated to accomplish this. Dion was on time and helped out with the loading even when weather and logistics was a problem.. The boat arrived on time in good condition. He went out of his way to get this done right.

Soon after purchasing a 33 foot sailboat, I had to find a way of getting it hauled from Maryland to Massachusetts. I called a local company which does this sort of thing, and thought their price was very steep. I decided to sign up with uShip. The entire process was easy, and numerous bids began almost immediately. The bidder I chose did a fantastic job, beginning to end. I will not hesitate to us ...

Well, not a ship exactly, but a 25' sailboat. Difficult load, and Chicago traffic in the 500 miles between me and the port in Ohio she came from. uShip to the rescue. My first uShip experience, but probably not my last. I got several great bids for my load, from haulers with excellent reputations. I chose Mike Russell (mrlift) and was extremely well pleased with his service, his punctuality, an ...

Had a sail boat shipped. Would definitely use Ken Cox again. Excellent care and communication. He went out of the way to ensure boat and trailer safety. Fantastic service.

The shipment went great but I had a little bit of trouble working the uShip website. The services provided on the website are great, but the website itself is a bit difficult to navigate. I would use uShip again, but would like a better user interface. The driver I selected (Tony Hoffman) was great and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Mark and his team did a great job transporting my sailboat from San Diego to Austin, Texas. They were very good about planning the pickup and delivery logistics with me, including working with the boat yard and marina directly to make sure everything was in order. The pickup was right on time as scheduled and delivery in Austin, Texas also took place right on schedule. My boat was well secured ...

I purchased a sailboat located in the Kansas City area and needed it shipped to South Florida. My friend had used uShip for the same type of delivery and suggested I check it out. Within a few hours of the time I created my bid, I received three offers. The offers came to my cell phone while I was running errands and I was able to make a decision very easily. Using PayPal made it even easier to ...

I purchased a sailboat for my family from a guy in Detroit, MI. I looked at driving out from Seattle with my van to pick up the boat...then I found out about u-ship. I received several bids and chose to go with Paul. Paul picked up the boat, inspected the trailer and we decided it needed new tires. Paul took care of that and now the boat is in Seattle where I plan to sail it with my family. O ...

You can read my story in the endorsement I made for gatorman54. My experience was great. I enjoyed getting good reach to many vendors. I did not pick the lowest price but the system allowed me to make an educated decision that I was comfortable with. In the end Gatorman54 did the rest to make my experience a good one.

After 9 years of looking for a certain boat, I found it in Wi. Chuck Scott won the bid. He communicatted great from the start and delivered my treasure as if it was his, It arrived as scheduled, 1250 miles! Chuck was great to deal with. Chuck Scott and U Ship worked great for me. Thanks to all. John

We shipped a Hallberg Rassy 38 from New Hampshire to Washington. At first we attempted to go with a shipping company our broker recommended in the Seattle area as they are usually trusted by most of the locals, however their communication was terrible and a week before the boat was supposed to be shipped, the company "erased us from their system" and didn't know when they could get a truck out th ...

Had a boat on trailer in San Francisco that needed to go to Virginia. Wayne suggested, correctly, that the trailer would not make the trip but it could be loaded on his flat bed. He had one of the lowest bids and nothing but positive feedback. He had shipped very similar loads and could pick up in a matter of a couple of days. He delivered when he said he would and this was just a great experi ...

Phil Smith made this the most wonderful experience and exceeded my expectations from beginning to end. I would recommend his services for anyone looking to move your boat or anything of value that is to big for you to move yourself. He was professional from pricing, to service, and delivery. If I ever have to move my boat again, Phil is the only person I will call to do that for me. Tha ...

Overall a good experience, but I'm having trouble finding how to claim the $50 first-shipper rebate. Maybe I just haven't scoured the site enough yet.

We needed to have boat towed from San Diego to Spokane. We posted on uShip before we actually purchased the boat. We started getting bids right away. This helped us make the final decision to buy as we could factor in the cost of shipping. We were able to read the comments of other customers before selecting a winning bid. Everything went very well and we were very pleased with the job the shipper ...

Great job moving a 26 foot Ranger Sailboat from Beverly, MA to Warwick, RI. He was able to get the boat into a difficult spot for storage. I would recommend Tim to anyone looking to move a boat, his experince and knowledge made the process very easy! Look forward to working with Tim again.
