Great experience shipping my boat.
uShip is a great place to do business. With the feedback available and the uSafe payment method, you can't go wrong!

I would use Uship everytime!!
Uship provided me with multiple options at a lower price than the other quotes I received for online shippers. The shipment could not have worked out better. I was extremely satisfied with Jeff in every way. I would use Uship again!!

Shipping 17 foot Sailboat from CA to FL
Professional shipping company quoted $5,000 plus for shipping on a flat bed truck. UShip came in with a quote for $1,250 by pulling it on it's own trailer, which was succesful. Thanks! Keep up the good work, this is an excellent business model and web site.

DreamTimeTransportation (102) UShip Profile
While I used this particular shipper which I originally found on UShip, the current problem I have with him is from a contract I made with him outside of UShip. Because he is not fearful that I will give him negative feed back because I contracted him off UShip I am hoping that you may be able to help me.
He agreed to pick up a boat from Tennessee and deliver it to Mississippi. He gave me good ...

Very happy with the service
I stumbled onto Uship when trying to find a company to move two boats I purchased across the country.
I wasn’t expecting too much from the service and was apprehensive at first but within short order I found I was receiving feed back on what I thought was an odd shipment.
All of the people that submitted bids seemed credible and it didn’t take long for me to put a deal together and have my ...

I will use uShip for every shipping/transport service ever needed again.

sending a boat cross country
My family gave me a boat. This was a 14' Laser sailboat that I sailed with my grandfather when I was a kid. I wanted the boat, sure, but it was in New Hampshire and I now live in New Mexico. I priced having the boat shipped as freight, and it was way out of my price range. uShip allowed me to find someone who was willing to be creative in connecting two shipments so he could afford to charge me a ...

Trailering a 22 foot sailboat
I am a novice with no experience in sailing or in managing vessel ownership. I contacted local boat haulers who were competitive with uShip but who were tentative about making a trip from LI, NY to RI.
From the first contact, which were e-mail questions through uShip, to the delivery this morning, I was treated professionally and almost like a family member by OSMT. Telephone calls and his assist ...

Great Experience Shipping My Sailboat
I decided to ship my sailboat from Michigan to Mississippi. I had never done this and didn't even know where to start. So of course, I googled in shipping sailboat and the web site UShip came up. It walked me through all of the information that a shipper would need. Within a few hours, I had all sorts of bibs for shipping my boat. The reason I chose Brad from Planet Transport was because of al ...

I was nervous about the process, but in the end everything worked out perfectly. I will use Uship again.

Excellent experience shipping our 31' sailboat
We shipped our 2003, 31' sailboat from Swansea, MA to Punta Gorda, FL (over 1,500 mi.). The shipping company was excellent. They arrived on time, the driver and his assistant loaded the boat with extreme care and knowledge on what they needed to do to make sure the boat was secure. When it arrived on time (picked up Mon. delivered on Fri) it was in EXCELLENT condition. The boat was not shrinked ...

38' Tahiti Ketch
My husband had been wanting to work on his sailboat, a very big project, but getting to FL regularly just wasn't feasible...so he decided to ship it to our acreage in IA. Like everytime we sailed there was a story to tell, well, same for the shipping. Actually, the shipping itself went well...it was getting everyone into position, then lifting it off & setting it on our land (by our barn, no l ...

Contessa 26 Lake Erie to SC
After buying a 1974 Contessa 26 along with her 1978 Trail Right dual axel trailer, I needed to get her shipped to her future home port, Beaufort,SC. I broke all the rules but came out lucky: I did not survey, or have a professional survey done, either the boat or trailer. Fortunately, all the players, previous owner, transporter, and uship helped me out. Information flow from everyone made it ...

My children are now middle aged and in the middle of their careers with families of their own.

C&C 26ft. Sailboat
We had to move a 26 ft. C&C sailboat from Groton CT to Celoron NY. We found Uship online and let them locate the best fit shipper for the job. We found Haul4all who had a very competitive price, the equipment and experience with sailboats. Phil at Haul4all was on top of things from the start, exploring options and dates to suit everyone. These kind of shipments involve many things that are outsid ...

Hunter 260
The boat arrived a lot larger than I thought. No problems other than the jack on the factory trailer did not work. The shipper used his jack to set it on my truck. This was probably a heavy load to haul.

great shipping experience
I was thinking of buying a boat halfway accross the country. I searched the internet for shipping costs to determine whether I could afford it. I came accross Uship and determined that it was possible to get the boat shipped for a reasonable price.
So I proceeded with the purchase while many service providers bid on my shipment. I was impressed with Uship's system of keeping track of feedback f ...

UShip got it there...
At the moment, with business slow, UShip provides an excellent way of choosing a shipper. I shipped a sailboat from Buffalo New York to Eugene Oregon. The fact that I was able to extend the posting allowed for several shippers to combine my shipment with other business.
I think this may be the key to receiving the best possible bid and would advise starting the process far enough ahead, and ...

1966 Seafarer Kestrel NY to KC
Randy and Donna went WAY above and beyond the call of duty! Purchased a boat sight unseen, paid the seller extra money to prep boat for shipping. When Randy and Donna arrived, they had to reset the boat, restrap the boat, reset the trailer supports, repack the wheel bearings, run lighting, try to locate tires, and found the sellers strapping had done damage to the hull, bronze, and teak. THANKS RA ...

boat shipment
I found a shipper for less than half of what the normal boat shippers charge. If I had rented a truck, it might have cost me just about the same price that I paid and I did not have to drive.

A boat move ,to talk about

After consulting with many Boat moving companies,I began to think my quest would'nt come about, due to the expence involved. I contacted "uShip" and found that ...

Moved boat from Kemah to Austin
Fantastic website and service. This website, uShip, made this entire move possible. Movers cold called were quoting in the thousands and uShip made it possible for me to move my boat for around $300.00. If you're using uShip, give yourself a good few weeks to allow bidding to get aggressive and do your homework online and review the companies feedback. Thank you uShip!

First experience with USIP and JKING and it proved to be wonderful. Jeff was very professional and punctual. And USHIP provided us with the opportunity to get competitive quotes from pre-qualified providers. We look forward to future shipments with our new friends.

uShip solved my problems
I was looking to buy a boat in Georgia but getting it back to Rhode Island seemed like it was a night mare. Taking four days off work to drive down and back plus the cost of fuel. It was too much for me and I nearly didn't buy the boat. I found uShip and posted the boat for delivery. I was supprised at how reasonable the prices were and also how many bids I got so soon. I thought it was great that ...

Good experience shipping my boat
It was 1/2 price because he took my boat on the return trip of another trip he had already been paid for. It is best to go through U-ship because the feed back is a strong motivator for timely shipments. Overall positive feedback.

Fantastic Experience
I bought this boat on auction, sight unseen... When I got over the oops feeling, I then had to make quick arrangements to move the boat out of the marina, or incur steep storage costs. uShip came to the rescue. Withing a few hours of posting my request, I had three solid bid. I picked one that had an excellent reputation.
Sonny came to my rescue and made all the arrangements to pick-up my boat ...

Terrific Shipper
Dealing with someone you don't know, and particularly trusting them with valuable goods, can be a little nerve wracking, but Sherman was an absolute delight to deal with and I'd hire him again in a heartbeat, low bid or not. A 100% professional job from start to finish, and also one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. My new 30' custom trailer arrived on time and in immaculate condition. These da ...

We needed a dinghy for our vessel and had an offer to donate one. Problem it was in CT and we were in FL. Solution Uship and a great partner to execute our mission. He did it perfectly, and this was a "cold call" experience for us. Can't wait for another requirement to use Uship.

Made for a care-free summer vacation with boat shipment!
I'm a single mom of four who has the good fortune of traveling up to my childhood home in upstate New York for lengthy summer vacations on Lake Chautauqua. My dad always took my kids fishing, sailing or on sunset-cruises. After he passed away, my mom had to sell off his "fleet". We spent last summer staring at the lake with no way to get out on the water. I vowed never to let this happen again ...

First Time with U-ship worked well
Our orginal plans had us sailing from the east coast of the US to the West Coast but time and money ran out. That meant shipping the boat. This saves both time and money. We called and emailed several companies and got several quotes but there were time frame and deposit issues that were hard for us because we were still cruising.
When we finally stopped and had access to the internet we decid ...

Boat Transport
Have to say the expieience was well worth it. The site provides many bids upon which to decide, all seemed to be very professional and caring of their clients
My beloved Catalina sailboat was destined to be sold in NY till I found this service to ship her to NC. I now look forward to many years of sailing
Thanks

Jag Marine Transport did a great job shipping my boat.
U Ship made it easy for me to find a very reliable boat hauler and eliminated worry about money that was payed for shipping. Jag Marine Transport moved my boat from Ohio to Florida in a timley manner and did a great job. They even sent me a check paying for repainting the mast where it had been dammaged.
I highly recommend Jag Marine Transport.

Got my boat here on time!
I was very relieved to find Uship. I needed to get a sailboat from Tucson to LA. I was going to fly out, rent a truck and do it myself, but was not looking forward to it. I put a quick ad up on Uship and immediately got quite a few bids. All of the providers looked very legit, and the bids were all very affordable - a fraction of the cost it would have been for me to haul the boat myself. The ...

After two years of frustration and agony getting this thing ready to go, I just didn't feel confident about pulling it myself. I solicited a bid on uShip and dnrinc got the job. I am SO GLAD that he did the job for me. Communication was awesome, arrival at the site ...

I booked the carrier thru Uship and voila! The boat was pick up on time and delivered in excellent ...

Great experience; Todd provided good communication, was prompt, took excellent care in transporting our boat and was very accommodating. He called to say he was in town ahead of schedule and was subsequently available to start our job early; or we could hold to the original pick-up /delivery schedule. We were ready so we took him up on the early pick-up / delivery, but it was nice to have the op ...
