Great experience

My fitness equipment was delivered ahead of time and everything was cared for incredibly well. I have had an incredible experience and will use these services again!

Good shipper

I got it quickly. Had a little troble off loading the units. Some better forthought would have helped.

A good move

This was our first experience with uship. We needed to move 8 pallets containing 258 boxes of new clothes that weighed over 9000 pounds cross country. Our company is located on the east coast while the goods were in our vendor's warehouse on the west coast. There were some minor communication glitches as it was a tight schedule and Ernest preferred to communicate via email while the owner of o ...

great experience with uship

This was my first time having something hauled with u ship. I have been a member for two years and this was the time things worked out to have something shipped. I didnt know the all the rules and was given a red flag. I hurried and contacted uship and apologized for my mess up, wanted my shipment hauled so bad i gave info without confirming the contract. They were great about it and didnt hold it ...

Awesome expierience with Uship

I was very frustrated with the thought of paying crazy amounts to have my appliance shipped. I was trying to get alot for a little. I am impressed at how easy it was to post my needs and how quickly bids came in. I have been recommending this company since I started with the process. I also enjoyed the text, phone calls and emails that were sent to alert me about the bids. Uship! Thank you!!!

Site worked great for me!!

I had a shipment of a large carpet cleaner, one large box of hoses/cords for the machine, one smaller box with a small inline heater, and a floor tool and got it all shipped 9 hours away for 175.00. I highly doubt I would have been able to get that price though a commercial shipping company. They also would have made me crate up the carpet machine which would have been a real pain and an extra e ...

Loading and delivering a Crane

I bought a crane and seller didn't take care to place the machine as described. Then Hoopesturfarm do an excellent work recovering the crane ,placing in an apropiatte site, loading by themselves and also Washing the machine that was dirty, just to be clean for delivering at Jacksonville port's customs Alan (driver) and Holly (dispatch manager) were accurate and efficient at affordable price. ...

great delivery of awkward package

Job was to deliver a generator without an engine in it. Unit was heavy, and difficult to move, and needed to be treated gently because of the electronics in it. I was very happy with how the unit was secured, and the care given to the shipment

Great shipping

Posted Sleeper on uship, by the end of the day I started getting bids. By the next day I recieved 4 bid and was able to confirm a shipper. Had my sleeper a day early. Thanks Mr. Alan of Love2haul for a great job! Mitch

Definitely worth the few extra dollars!

I needed a large wooden flower vendor's cart moved from Texas to Southern California. As the cart is essentially to be my place of business, I was very concerned about its handling in transit. I chose Mr. Clark over a lower bidder because his feedback reflected the kind of care I was hoping to receive for my item. I wasn't disappointed! Mr. Clark professionally padded and tarped this awkward p ...

The Fast and not Furious

I was faced with a rush order and needed the same of my delivery. The factory quoted me a 3 day ship rate 3x higher than I was quoted. Items were here well in advance of the guaranteed time. Great Service!

Great experience, and this was my first time

This was the first time I used this service. I'm a convert, and will use again. I think the service fees are a bit high, but as long as the shipping guy is getting his fair share, I guess it's OK. I'd like to see the little guy get more of the shipping costs. I was able to justify the expense, because it's still cheaper than my normal shipping company for this shipment. But the small business ...

Shipping several small, heavy items

I purchased several small, heavy items via on-line auction. Originally I intended to drive either a car or my pickup to bring the items home. The drive would have been 'doable' in a weekend, but would have taken most of the weekend. Was contacted by several potential shippers, and worked with one that was already in the city where my items were. Was able to coordinate shipment of my items for ...

Problem with the UShip service

I was shipping 2 pallets of life vests from CA to MD, and used Uship to get my quote. There was apparently some problem with the UShip system, and my shipment was quoted as being "Fright class 150" instead of "250" which caused the quote to be way off. I was unaware of this problem, until 3 days after my order was supposed to be PICKED UP I called the shipping company to see how things were going. ...

Excellent Service for the frequent shipper!

As a first time user, it was a pleasant experience. My fault that it arrived just on time to make a plane trip from my shipping destination. I will definitely use uShip on all my larger shipments. Will also be linking to my eBay account as soon as I get the time, to sit down and read a little more about doing that. My hats off to the programmers that put this site together! Great job and many than ...

Shipping

Very good service and price. Waaaay better than previous quotes I had from on line fright co.s, and service was excellent.

Great Experience

With U-ship its easy to match customer expectations pricewise. The ability to negotiate and recieved different bids is an excellent tool that Uship provides. Easy to list and edit shipments!!!!!

Great Servise!

Uship is the best. I'm starting a little wholesale buisness and need things transported. This site is great and people bid on your shipments fast and have always have great transactions through uship. Keep up the good work.

Easy to use and saved money

The big companies make it difficult and confusing (and expensive!) for an individual like me to figure out how to get something large shipped. Uship made it simple. Simple to use. Simple to understand my cost. And it saved me a great deal of money over the amounts quoted by the big boys.

Great experience shipping our acoustic wall panels

Heard about UShip from a local pastor-friend who saved $1500 transporting a 20' work trailer from FLA ro MD. I was really impressed (the first 24 hours) to see how professional this service networks itself through the bidders and customers. The online process is a no-brainer if you can peck a keyboard. Would highly recommend UShip to anyone who despises the shipping and handling gouging a ...

shop stuff

had some shop stuff the go to missouri and i put iton other web sites and no luck but i put it on uship and found someone to take my load at a very good price

Ebay deals nationwide

I'm a self professed Ebay addict. I own and operate three different businesses and am always looking for equipment or materials. I have found through Uship that I have the ability to seek out and purchase these items without limitations on distance. I'm often able to grab a deal because other prospective buyers can't purchase an item that far away. I love the fact that I can find hard working reli ...

Getting a bid on my freight.

I won a considerably sized item on eBay which was half way across the US. I thought that I would have to pick it up myself when the seller mentioned uShip and the rest is history. The same day that I placed the bid I must have received 6 offers. The next day I received several more and the most reasonable offer had the best review. It was almost too easy, what a great experience I plan to use ...

I got a great experience in shipping

I am ebay and Paypal member, I am International member and I do my first business with uship, I am very happy, they have excellent, trust very good experience transport companies and transporters.

I was concerned

I have very high value computer equipment that needed shipping. I had not used this service before and was concerned about cost and how it would be handled by the people who picked it up and the people who would move it. I am very happy with the experience I had and with the family run operation that moved my equipment. I will not hesitate to use this service again.

Great experience shipping my xray machine.

I'm a young dentist and I purchased a used xray machine from a dental supply warehouse. The supplier quoted me $1400 for shipping the unit! I decided to look into shipping it myself. As I was searching the internet I found uship. I cannot be happier with the service. Within a few hours of posting my item I had several quotes to choose from. I found someone to ship my item for just over $300. ...

great experience

Some equipment is just too heavy to ship as was the case this time. I think this is a great option and the bidders seem to do a good job communicating with the purchaser.

shipping brick last minute

We were in a bind and needed brick to complete a mason job in a hurry. Used the uship website and was matched immediately to an economical shipper. The experience was great and we saved hundreds in shipping. Thanks Uship!

2 Pallets of Mailboxes

The individual shipper I chosed was on the road and in my opionion was not in a position to take care of my needs as expected. I wanted an immediate pickup and it was 4 days before I received a truck to pick up the pallets. My customer was not happy so it made me unhappy.

Great experieince shipping a large machine.

uShip was great. It was my first time and I expected a lot more headaches through the shipping process. It went through without a hitch. I wish I could say the same for ebay and paypal.

Moving Sea Container

I acquired a sea container but knew nothing about how to move it. I needed to move it 129 miles to our farm. So, I contacted several local moving companies and none could help me. Luckily, one of the guys at the moving company told me about uShip.com and thought that I might find what I needed there. I registered and logged on and had no idea it was so easy. It was a great experience and I fe ...

It was Ok experience, I dod not appreciate the increase in price,

I have been shipping machine for 10 years. I have always shipped them with freight class 85. I dealt with freightquote.com, they always shipped my machine freight class 85. The forst time I ship with your company, You cahrge a freight5 class 100 rate. I really didnt aprreciate this. Also, I did nt apreiate after booking a shipment not have immediate confirmation.

14 Pallets from LA to SE Washington

We had a large shipment of 14 pallets from LA to SE Washington. All the major companies (FedEx, UPS,..etc) came in at $2,500 to $9,000. One of the bidders gave us a great deal at $900. We decided to go with them because (a) they were based within three hours of were we lived, so if anything went wrong we could talk to them in person and (b) they had the best price. The shipping company sent a t ...

Punctual shipping from jobsite to yard.

I needed to have concrete pavers delivered to my yard. I contacted uShip and placed a bid request. I recieved bids immediately and settled on the best price. Contact was immediate and I set up the pick up and the delivery for the same day. They were at the pick up point when promised. They arrived at the delivery point as promised. The driver was experienced and manuevered the truckload so that ...

armored doors

Bought a set of armored doors for my HMMWV on ebay. Each was 180lbs, and they were picked up and delivered in great shape. Thanks!

I Highly Recommend UShip.

I have used Uship twice. I was very satisfied with both shipments and the service UShip provides putting the two parties together. I Highly Recommend UShip as a safe and reasonable shipping connection. I will use again.

I Like It!

My first time shipping a crated object across country was daunting, but with the help of Uship, the process was flawless and the product (scientific equipment) arrived safely to its destination. I really appreciate this site and the service it provides in bringing freight companies and customers together so effortlessly. Great job Uship. I am now selling a second piece of equipment, and Uship i ...

Concrete Culverts

I needed almost two dozen concrete culverts, that were over 100 miles away, delivered to my house. I posted the ad on UShip and within hours I was receiving bids. Within 48 hours I received the bid I would accepted and everything elese fell into place. I had a very positive experience with UShip and I would definitely use them again.

GREAT SHIPPERS, EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE WITH USHIP

I sold a Pressure Washer and the Buyer was approximately 1100 miles away. I was told about USHIP by a friend and so I posted the need to have this Pressure Washer moved from Pennsylvania to Louisiana with Uship.com ...well after just 2 days I was able to find a responsible shipper at a reasonable price who came to my home with a Brand New Truck and the Proper Equipment to load this heavy piece of ...

Great Service

From the listing of our freight load to its delivery - it was all without any problems or worry. Tyler coordinated the pick up with the shipper and kept his time line on track for the delivery. It was painless and easy.

Wheel Shipment..

Mach 1 Picked Up the Shipment On Tme & Delivered Before Time..Could Not Have Asked For Better Service & All For A Fair Price..Thanks Again..Ian Smith..

Excellent service

Would definitely use this company again, very quick and good service as feed back history plainly shows. Smooth Transaction.

BKGuardians; They made it look easy

We had won a government auction for a lot of 22 containers and accepted a bid from bkguardians to move the shipment. They were a little higher than the rest but their experience and confidence in being able to handle the tight deadline for loading and being able to get the paperwork done to get on base (not an easy task) is what convinced us to accept their bid. I can't say enough good thing ...

Once again, uShip exceeded my expectations!

People want win-win in their transactions. uShip has figured that out. What a system! It works. I get the shipment made on my terms, at the price I agree too. The GUI is so intuitive, it has really covered all the bases of "what if" Sincerely, Matt Wesolowski 469-363-0414 P.S. I hope it's publicly traded, so I can invest in certain success.

Antique Portable Gas Pump

My new Antique Gas Pump on wheels was delivered to me in the same condition that it was in when it left.....Saved $$$$...Will use USHIP as my shipping providers.......D.B.

Cookware

I was shipping cookware downsouth and my clients didnt want to pay other primary shippers because it was very expensive. With Uship, I got my shipment on time. It was same day pick-up, and next day delivery, with 3 times less expensive then other carriers!!! Once delivered, I received a courtasy phone call saying that it was done. Thank You Uship!!

Fantastic service

I purchased a cng tank in California. I did not think the seller meant..local pick-up. Many sellers use this as Ebay sometimes makes it had to get the shipping correct. So then i found out that the seller was moving to Tenn in four (4) days. Man I figured I just lost $400. I had used USHIP and realized that USHIP also has service providers that ship items such as the cng tank. I placed ...

Request from uShip

The only bad part of this experience is having to fill out this description for uShip before I can get my deposit back.

Great service with a tough load.

A disassembled building and a huge equipment hoist. It was not an easy load. Jeff took the time to carefully load and secure the shipment. He also communicated with me throughout the trip and was at our location exactly when he said he would arrive. Nice job!

Shipped 12000lb machine with my computer and 2 calls

I bought a huge chassis dyno on Ebay, and thought shipping would be insane for 1100 miles and 12000lbs. Well, within a day or so I had several offers bid down to ship it on uShip for <1200, which isn't bad at all. With loading costs, it arrived in one shipment for about 1500. Rapidfiretx did a great job arranging for loading this monster machine and transporting it safely, and even quickly recov ...
