I decided to quit my desk job and go to art school in San Fran. Problem was I lived in Chicago. In order to save money on rent I had to move my entire studio apartment back to my parent's garage in Wisconsin. I didn't know any trusted moving companies. I read horror stories via Google about people having all of their belongings stolen. A friend of mine up and moved to California a year prior and told me to try Uship - she explained an auction based moving website. Seeing as I would soon be a starving art student, I instantly liked the idea of movers bidding lower and lower on my moving job. I signed up, and within a week I had bids lower then all of the online moving quotes I had signed up for thru various other websites. I was skeptical of certain bidders not being a part of the BBB, however, after reading thru (sometimes 20-30) feedback comments I mustered up the courage to hit "confirm match". It is a couple months later now and I am happy to say that all of my belongings made the safe journey back to the garage. My movers delivered - just as their consumer feedback told me they would. Easy, Fast, Reliable - thank you uShip!
