I was shipping items I saved from my father-in-laws house from Hurricane Katrina. I was shipping from New Orleans, LA to Santa Rosa, CA. The items were worth a lot in sentimental value mostly. They were two chairs and a marble topped vanity that I couldn't have sent by mail or Fedex. I entrusted these items to uShip, a carrier was found swiftly, and I saved a lot of money! The provider of services was 'freightrunner', a husband and wife team that did a wonderful caring job! They were appreciative of the fact that I was saving some of the family things that survived the worst hurricane ever known in New Orleans, and they took extra special care of them. I would definitely use uShip again!
