I needed two fragile, antique railroad pot belly stoves moved from Ontario to Calgary. uShip was what I chose and I'm glad I did, since I got to pick who actually brought them. There were several bidders, prices were roughly similar and based on feedbacks, I made my choice and the stoves arrived in fine shape! My shipper was flexible and accommodating when some scheduling details went awry, and in the end, I feel great about helping a 'smaller' shipper out. These shippers on uShip are people like you and I, just doing a job and trying to make it in the face of huge corporate competition. It feels good supporting the 'little guy'. I'd definately use uShip again!
