Great experience shipping my furniture

I was shipping very heavy bedroom furniture. Wanted to have professional movers to do the job but also didn't wanted to break my wallet. So i got on uship. Here i was able to provide information about my furniture so that different movers can bid on it. Due to competition there were over 50 bids placed and i chose the best according to me. The moving experience was also very good. movers were real ...

First time shipping

Very easy. Heard about this service from my brother, had no issues signing up and listing my bid. Everything worked out as planned.

Great job shipping my mattress with uShip!

When my son, the recent college graduate, moved into his new apartment in Washington DC, I wanted to ship him my barely used mattress and boxspring from my house in Bradenton. I don't ship every day. How much would it cost? What's a fair price? How do I know if a shipper is any good? Will they take care of my mattress? Help! Finding uShip was a blessing for which we will be forever grateful ...

2 3 door freezers

Mike was awesome! He placed his bid, I accepted, and they were delivered within hours! I couldn't have asked for a nicer guy that actually cared about my items. If I could give him more than 5 stars for every catagory I would! Thanks so much again and I will be sure to use your service again in the future.

first experience - good experience

'Went online to look for carrier for Granny's chair. 'Noticed uShip and took a look. 'Gave it a try and got a response within minutes. Reasonable price - accepted. Luckily chair picked up next day and delivered the day after. One phone call, one e-mail - all done. Very satisfactory. A good service. JF

SHIPPING STAINED GLASS WINDOW

IT was all done in a timely prompt professional manner. No issues at either end of the process, pick-up and delivery both went flawlessly. My highest recommendations.

For my Sister..

My sister is always doing things for me, so when I visited her, a month ago, I couldn't help but notice her kitchen chairs were falling apart. I told her I had 3 chairs that would be perfect for her, but they were upholstered and I wasn't quite sure how or who I could trust to get them to her in good shape. Well the guys came, wrapped them and hand delivered! They treated the chairs, like they be ...

Snow blower

Hal went above and beyond service. He is good to deal with, contacts you to let you know about your item and its status. I will not hastate to use again. Thank you Hal for your service, Regards Nelson

Excellent Shipper!!

Semper Fi Hauling is AWESOME to work with! Michael Frear is courteous, stays in touch, treated our shipment with care, & even helped carry it up a steep flight of stairs! He is an EXCELLENT shipper and deserves extra kudos for also being a dedicated member of our military! I'm a VERY HAPPY & SATISFIED customer and because of Michael, will use UShip again! Thank you!!! Tina Green

bupas painting

my father-in-law gifted us a second framed picture that was painted by his grandmother in the 1800s. after calling every shpping company and getting quotes of $2000. and up or refusing to ship original art, i found uship. my bidder was easy to contact and was very nice, even calling my relative and coordinating on their end. the painting arrived in perdect condition 1 day early. thankyou uship ...

Delivery of household goods

I had a very small load - two pieces of furniture - to deliver from Delaware to Florida. I checked with the major delivery companies and their estimates were worth more than the furniture!!! I came upon UShip and found it very easy to use. I put in the items and how much i wanted to pay and received several bids within the hour. I would definitely recommend this service and will use again.

Shipping vehicle parts

I found myself in the unfortunate situation of having a collection of antique car parts in Bellingham WA but my home was in Edmonton. I flew to Vancouver, rented a truck and moved the parts to a storage locker in Vancouver. I hadn't made firm plans to bring the parts back from Vancouver until a colleague who had shipped a personal watercraft earlier in the year told me about uShip. I listed ...

Great experience shipping my vehicle

We have property in "the middle of nowhere." 20 miles of dirt road from either the north or the south. BK Guardian did good by us, and delivered a very large tractor via the county-maintained dirt road. We are very pleased with the service we got. Not many shippers would sign on to deliver a large tractor to the "middle of nowhere."

Great experience shipping my boss' framed picture

My boss asked me to have his framed picture shipped to his Florida home from our Boston office. He spent about $1000 to have it framed and I was very nervous using a new shipper and a bidding service that I never used before. Several bids came through and based on times, prices, etc. I found "TEDSVTFL" and through correspondence, trusted that all would go well with them. My picture was wrapped car ...

Shipped Fudge Kettle

I wish I would have placed a bid on USHIP first, I could have saved $100 in crating fees as not all carriers require a crate. I received several bids and was able to find one that best suited my timeframe and budget for my business. Will definitely use USHIP in the future! Gina McClendon, COO Reminiscent Confections

Sofa Bed from Hexham to Milton Keynes

Within only a few hours of leaving my requirements, I had fixed a deal. The collection worked well. Delivery was delayed by vehicle breakdown. However the delivery men were very helpful in carrying this heavy and large item to an upstairs room. Thank you!

Uship is the way to go for shipping anything of value

I bought a carpet in Illinois that I wanted shipped to Connecticut. I had a delivery deadline because of my party - I wanted to show the new carpet off to my friends and family. The service providers worked with the seller who was available only certain days. They also addressed my concern about the carpet being protected en route because it was white and could easily become soiled. They wrapped i ...

Mass to Texas

My father-in-law wanted to send us some antique furniture. He called a well-known local company and got a quote. I thought I'd check online for something better. uShip was able to do it for under half the cost. They were very communicative, talking to my father-in-law in Massachusetts, my wife in Texas, and me on business overseas in order to make all of the pickup, delivery and payment arrang ...

The EBay of shipping

What a great service! I had a bookcase to ship from Miami Fl to St. Paul, MN. This bookcase had sentimental value and I was concerned about how it would be handled. However, I was more concerned about the shipping quotes I was getting for over $3000. It wasn't that sentimental!. However, uShip cam through with two different quotes for around $300 less than 2 days after I posted my request. The shi ...

UShip is the only way to go!

Honesty is what you do when nobody's looking. Unfortunately, there are many movers who will take your deposit and never show up or change your move date and never return your deposit. You can avoid all this by using UShip and checking to see if the company has insurance and proper DOT credentials. Also, if the company requires a deposit, make sure you pay it with your credit card so you are protec ...

Bedroom furniture shipped to naples, Florida

The story started off on USHIP. we began the bid process, but I did not take the others as LOU for some reason had the best feedbacks. We negotiated back and forth I think three times and then I accepted the bid. Everything else was easy - an email, followed by a telephone call, arrangements as to when to pick up the goods - very punctual and professional - all the goods were wrapped with blank ...

Great way to get anything you need on time and at the price you want!!

I had a couch and chair I needed quickly. Johnny Express and many other shipping companies bid on my shipment a few minutes after I posted the need.Finally was able to narrow down the shipper and had a very positive experience. Would highly highly recommend U Ship and especially Johnny Express.Bid today and you practically can get what you need in 48hrs.Greats ervice. Will use again!

Excellent experience

Very good overall experience. Received a number of competitive bids. Shipper was excellent to deal with.

small dresser from my grandmother

I inherited a small dresser from my grandmother and needed it moved. Everything went fine with the bidding and aggrement. The dresser was delivered in a timely manner and I found him to be a reliable person, very friendly. I would use uShip again.

Furniture

Needed to ship furniture that we saved for our daughter from Chicago to San Diego. Too big and fragile for shippers like UPS. Large freight carriers that can be easily found would charge more than the furniture itself is worth. uShip enables carriers to combine small loads like ours in a manner that can result in charges 80% or more LESS than the charges of the large freight carriers.

Shipping an ebay purchase

I bought a vintage 5 pc sectional on ebay and needed it shipped from CA to OH. I've never had to do this before so asked my best friend, a veteran ebayer, for advice. She said to sign up on uShip and let people bid on the job. It was so easy to do. The instructions were very simple to follow and within minutes, I was receiving bids. It's great because you not only can compare prices but you can re ...

would use this service again. very helpful and easy to maneuver. able to chose among a number of bids. good experience overall.

Great experience shipping my school furniture

I got a great deal on some school furniture from Ebay. the shipment was for local pick up only in Calafornia I live in the Bahams. Doug and has team were very professional and kept in touch from start to finish. I will forever recommend Doug and his team of professional drivers. Bridgette LFA school The Bahamas

Antique delivery

Ted was awesome. I needed an antique item picked up from the seller within a certain time frame. Ted happened to be in that area simultaneous with the seller. Timing for pickup could not have been more perfect. The item was a very large, heavy antique dresser to maneuver down 4 flights of stairs (no elevator) on a narrow stairwell (Brownstone in New York) - very precarious situation. Ted and ...

Thankful to U-SHIP!

I had to move some furniture and misc. items from Florida to New York and was in a bind with regard to timing, little experience with a physical move and most of all low funds. After researching the large well known named moving companies and looking into doing it myself - renting a truck, I found U-Ship online and decided to give it a shot on the bidding forum. I was a bit apprehensive of having ...

Great experience with my appliances

Was kind of afraid to try and ship these things across country. Mr. Harper and his wife Faith stayed in touch, on time and every thing got here perfectly.

Furniture

Picked up and delivered my items very timely and I also added few items while he was there...very patient and helpful on last minute request. Would recommend and use again!

Wary but Happy!

As a charity, we do blanket drives all year long. I was running out to time to get a huge load of blankets to our largest sanctuary in AZ. I thought I had one bid all setup but when I went to accept his bid, he had withdrawn it. I was totally pissed off! But then a better offer came along and this lady was so helpful and accomodating, it was almost worth being let down the first time. I will a ...

Extremely positive Uship experience

I had bedroom furniture shipped from Arizona to Washington State. Investigated several different options, all of which were too expensive (would have been cheaper to sell and buy new). Was very lucky to find UShip website. Entire experience was positive. Denes and his partners were flexible, professional and picked up and delivered my items in a timely and secure manner. I am completely satisfi ...

U-Ship is GREAT..!!

I have used u-ship on several occassions, and I've been more than satified.. First time, I had my TWH 2 year old filly shipped out from Tennesse, to California. Guy Sears, was my transporter. He was wonderful..!! I was in constant contact with him.. He took very good care of my filly. When she was delivered to me , she was calm, and in good condition.. The second time I used u-ship I had some n ...

Chest of drawers...added to my set

I was able to add to dresser to my bedroom set that is no longer being made, uship made that possible by putting me in touch with a great shipper who charged a reasonable price and completed the transaction in record time. Thanks

First Experience.

This was my first experience with uship. I recommend Paula Moore . They picked up the motorized wheelchair near Cleveland, Ohio, called me as soon as they left the mans house where they had picked it up. They told me approximately what day they would be in North Dakota, gave me 2 choices as to where they could meet me to deliver. Kept in touch along the way by email to my cellphone. They gave very ...

Successful Shipping of buffet chest

Our father recently passed away and my sister wanted a kind of battered buffet cedar chest sent from LA to Texas. The rate she found to ship was probably way more expensive than the chest was worth. On uship we found a man driving to Texas who delivered the chest at less than half our original estimate. We were very happy that this service was available to us.

Shipped a queen bed, worked great

Thank you U-Ship! I appreciate making the connection between me and H&D. Their services worked out great. I received a few competitive bids and your service was set up well and positioned me to be successful. Thanks! Ken

Jamesh09

James picked up my furniture precisely when he said he would in South Carolina and delivered it two days later ahead of schedule. He is fabulous and his rates were very fair. I would use his services again.

great experience shipping my antique stove

shipped an antique gas stove from Wisconsin to Kentucky. Scott was very professional in all aspects of this shipment. I would use uship again, and would contact Scott again if needed.

Handled my Vintage Washer with extreme care

I bid on and won a wringer washer off eBay. The seller of the washer referred me to Uship for shipment of my goods. Upon getting set-up and reviewing feedbacks from several shippers, I knew after reading Eastern States Trucking feedback that this was the shipper I wanted to deal with. Before accepting their bid (which wasn't the cheapest)I inquired about a few things that meant the most to me when ...

30 Pallets of goods

This was my first time using USHIP. Glad I did. Met Mike and Julie from Lodestar. Wonderful people. P-U and delivery as promised. Driver very helpful as well. Great communication with all. Will definately be back to them again when I need another shipment. Thanks again!!!

Chair, recliner

I had a chair moved from California to Illinois. The chair arrived in terrific condition and it was all due to the packing and shipping company. Although they did not take the back of the chair off, it arrived in awesome condition. I was happy with the price and happier with the way they treated me. I appreciate that there is such a wonderful company out their that can be trusted with any type ...

Great Service

Kevin was able to deliver the chairs we sold on Ebay within a day. Great service and very reliable and secure. We will definitely use him again! Thanks UShip! Paul
