I recently needed to have a large load of steel (35,000 lbs.) delivered from Fredricksburg, WI to Houston, TX. I called a few different companies whose quotes ranged from $3,500 to $4,500. I could'nt afford this price. One of the delivery companies asked me how much I was targeting, I stated "approximately $2,000". They responded back with an email explaining to me that I will never be able to get someone to make this delivery at that price. I then placed a "book it now" rate of $2000 on Uship. A few days later, Walker Price from SafeNLegal, booked it and picked up the steel on the same day! I received the steel 3 days after pickup. Walker and Jeff (Driver) were geat guys whose communication and services were top notch. Bottom line was, I saved $1,500, had my steel products within 1 week of setting the "book it now rate" and came away with a big smile the size of Texas! Tom Luu
