2 bulldozers

I was trying to ship two bulldozer at one time and I was concerned about getting it done. I had purchased both of them at an auction. The Uship website was friendly and the prices were competitive. I figure I saved $500. The service provider communicated with me every step of the way. I would definitely use Uship again!

Ease of shipment.

This is my first experince with "UShip" and I am very surprised how easy and trouble-free it was. No worries here with Pat picking up a forklift I purchased on ebay. He did the job exactly how he said he would. I wish all my shipments could be so easy and I definitely plan on using UShip much more in the future! Thanks guys!

caterpillar 226

it was a pleasure do deal with jerry tobias from jet fright everything was on time was good value for money

Got the job done

Even though the specs of the macine as provided by Ritchie Bros Auctioneers were incorrect in 3 areas ultimately affecting the necessary permits required to transport our Hitachi ZX450LC-3, American Hauling was able to stay with the machine, making alternate arrangments as necessary to ensure my product was delivered. Cheers

tractor shipping

Don called me as soon as bid was accepted. We set a delivery date and it all went smoothly. Will use uship again.

heavy equipment easy to ship with uship

I had a steiger farm tractor I needed to ship from central Indiana to The thumb of Michigan. Being a first time user I was a little skeptical of using something like uship. I have a lot of experience with ebay and am aware of some of the problems with internet transactions. I placed a ad on uship and started getting good bids quickly. In a matter of 2 days I booked a bid. 2 days later my tractor ...

Underpromised/Overdelivered

I shipped three large pieces of equipment and was absolutey impressed. Saved money and got what I needed. Will use uship forever!

UShip Experience

I purchased a large backhoe that needed hauling about a thousand miles in some tough weather and road conditions. The UShip site information allowed me to thoroughly evaluate a large number of service providers and to request bids from those I thought were best qualified to do this job. UShip also allowed me to get competitive prices. Quality shipment and competitive prices...it doesn't get any be ...

Simply GREAT

I'm in Mexico, this is the first time I've used "uShip" and it was easy, fast and especially great price. I had the luck to get my shipment a Cat 12F grader with Autocarrides, They are very professionals and very nice to deal with. Thanks. Carlos

Excellent experience with shipping my JLG 40RTS sizzor lift

I was shipping a JLG 40RTS sizzor lift. The reason I had to have it delivered, the unit was a little wider than the current equipment trailer that I owned. SO I need to have it delivered, so I was searching for someone that I could trust an I say USHIP site and read several testimonies of there experience. UShip save me hundreds by using a Bidding technique which I love. That old saying cheape ...

The Ottawa

We purchased this truck from the gov and we all know how that works out! I was told there was a loading dock at pickup, so i booked i shipper, dkhaul, sent them down there and there was no dock! They searched and searched for a way to get the job done right. In the end the rented another trailer from a friend and got the job done! With all the problems that came up DKhaul was great, these guys whe ...

A very economical choice to line up equipment transport

My first time using uShip; to haul a tractor halfway across the country, was a very positive one. Very easy to use with ebay, and a quick way to find out how much trucking a particular item will be ahead of time. Thanks.

Great job!

This was a very favorable experience. The fork lift was picked up and dropped off as promised and arrived in great condition. The driver was very professional and Jill was very good with staying in communication with me throughout the process. If I have a need for shipping in the future, I would definately use this shipper again and highly reccommend them to others as well. Great job!

Shipping JD 200C LC Excavator

Purchased this machine from a auction in BC and had to get it shipped to Illinois. Heard about UShip, setup my account and found a reliable carrier to move my machine for a reasonable rate. This is a excellent service to have available and I will continue to use it.

1st experience with a shipper or purchase like this

We bought a tractor from an online auction. Taking an unknown persons word for everything. I dont think he was the most honest to Bryann and what he was about to encounter. But Bryann loaded and delivered the tractor within 24 hours. Everything was in perfect order when it arrived. He is a great asset to the service that your website provides. Thank You for this opportunity. We are totally satis ...

Great experience shipping tractor into Canada

As a retailer of John Deere products I have been hesitant to sell equipment into Canada because of the customs thing and all the red tape. Using this company made everything work just fine. A pleasure to do business with. Very satisfied.

combine load with roth trucking.

I had to have a combine practically dissassembled and then had to reassemble after it arrived these guys worked through the rain during the entire process.They done everything they could possibly do to make this shipment a success.THANKS

Shipping made easy

I was attempting to ship from NC to north of Seattle across the Canadian border. I had firms price to the closest US point to me which was Bellingham WA. Once I decided on Fair Priced shipping, Jill took care of everything for me including arranging for pickup, and informing the driver how to contact me. The shipment was made easy for me and I applaud them. Thanks and looking forward to future d ...

smooth

I ordered a Machine from texas and it was picked up by a sub contracted shipping company, not the original company I hired online. Although I wasn't expecting that the pick up, delivery, and communication went pretty smooth. Will use U ship again!

A smooth shipping experience

I purchased two pieces of heavy equipment in two different states(offset disc and cultipacker; they picked up both pieces without a problem. They delivered the eqiupment in two days and drove 1700 miles to do it. Now that is fast shipping. Thanks guys.

good experience

I would you this service again. In the past I have hailed my own tractors. By using this service it freed me up to do other work.

John Deere Skid Steer

They were great, shipment arrived within 1/2 hr of scheduled delivery time, they called and told me that driver would be here on Monday, I started thinking that he only had 1 day's drive to get here, maybe he would just be sitting parked waiting for Monday to deliver, I called Bulldog and told them that someone would be on the property all day Sunday if driver wanted he could deliver on Sunday, dr ...

Shipping a Cattle Squeeze

Needed to move a squeeze fm a ranch auction site quickly and to my farm...easy service to use and get using. Simple and that's how it should be

Tough load done well

The load included five tanks that were big and heavy. Did a great job setting up the load and kept me informed during the entire trip.

3rd time I have used U ship

3rd time was a charm, i was careful to select someone with allot of positive feedback, everything went smoothly.

Farm tractor shipping

Excellent job from start to finish. Easy to do business with and quick response to all questions. I will use this carrier again.

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE.

QUICK DELIVERY OF A LARGE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. VERY GOOD COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND WAS READY TO GO IMMEDIATELY AND RETRIEVE THE ITEM FOR DELIVERY TO MY FRONT DOOR.

Oversize wide and tall

Rich handled this problem haul professionally and quickly. He did a great job for us start to finish. Highly recommend him for you big loads.

great experience shipping my dog kennels and dog trailer

driver was very helpful and patient as well w/ process of loading my dog kennels and dog trailer onto his flatbed trailer. driver also kept in good communication and was very informative and took good initiative to resolve issues of complications w/ roofing on his own. thank you for the great service and care of my belongings.

My 1st time using uship

I was hesitant at first to use uship and especially since my best quote was from a provider without any history. After some communication with Rick I decided to give it a try. He did everything he said he would when he said he would and you can't ask for more than that. Rick delivered my Honda 5013 tractor on time and for 1/3 the cost of a commercial quote I had received. Thanks Rick and uship!

Branson 2400

A great experience. Excellent provider. Saved $1000's. The provider did a remarkable job. I will use uShip again and would recommend it to anyone.

Using uShip

I would have liked the cost share between uShip and service provider explained better at the beginning of transaction. I was under the impression that uShip only charged $20.00 for the service but I was wrong!

Great first experience with uship!

This was my first time using uship so i wasnt real familiar with how things were done. In route we realize that payment hasnt been orchestrated like it was supposed to be. However, our shipper was very nice and allowed us to work things out. I would definitely use this service again!!!

Ebay tractor move

After having purchased a 3500 lb. tractor which was located in Chicago on Ebay the seller ( a very large equipment distributor ) could not find any of their regular shipping companies that had depots in Virginia that could handle this item. Seller asked me to contact trucking companies in my area to see what they could do. I put the shipment on uShip and in days had numerous bids, selected a pr ...

I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS EXPERIENCE, VERY OUTSTANDING SERVICE.

After winning the bid on this bus from COPART in Richmond, VA, my problems was how will I get this bus to Atlanta, Georgia. I had some friends that said they will go get, but they cound not come through, so I went on Google and typed in Truck transporter and uShip web-site pop-up. I follow the instructions on becoming a member and how to list my shipment, the next morning I had a bid on shiping m ...

Your business is awesome !

Just outstanding service, pickup and delivery at the lowest cost - as promised! As a first time user of uShip and a service provider, I was initially concerned by unfortunate (and unfounded) Internet smear tactics. After further investigation, I became convinced that this would in fact be a safe, positive, cost effective, and timely transaction. My expectations were exceeded! I highly recommend y ...

THE BEST

Auction Purchase Shipping

We purchased some construction equipment on an online auction in Arizona. We were able to use Uship and get the equipment delivered to our office in Minnesota with little time and no worries because we had great service from our hauler through Uship!

Ford F-800

This was the first time I had ever used USHIP. I saved $400 using USHIP over a standard auto shipping service. The shipper I hired was excellent and recieved my truck in less than two days!!! Next time I have something that needs to be shipped I will definetly use USHIP.

USHIP MADE MY DEAL

In today's market, it is a buyer's economy. You have to jump through hoops to earn business. Not that you shouldn't be willing to, but having to today is more the norm. USHIP made my deal because my customer was really pushing us to get his grader delivered. I had seen USHIP at Ritchie Bros., but had never used them. But this past weekend, I needed to get something firmed up for customer. Wit ...

Shipped a Motor Grader from Iowa to Texas for a construction project

It was nice to review bids from other Service Providers and compare the cost of mobilizaing the machine ourselves. Next it was comforting to review comments by other firms who had utilized the Service Provider that had the low quote. Our load was delivered worry free!

Toro Mower

When we purchased the item on E-Bay, it was located near Albany, New York, we live on the Canadian Prairies so the search began on how to best get the mower to Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, 2 hours from the US border, do I fly rent a truck on and on. In the end we gave UShip a try and it was a most pleasent experience, in the beginning we didn't get to many offers, but after upgrading with a photo ...

Awesome experience

This company was the best! Easy to work with, cost effective and delivered ahead of schedule. If the need arises, I'll engage them again. The kind of company that has plenty of integrity!

Nissan Forklift

We purchased the forklift off ebay. We set up with the seller for uShip to pick up the forklift for us. When the driver arrived to the location the forklift was not there. He had to wait for several hours missing his other portion of his reload but the driver stayed and picked up the forklift. When the driver arrived to our end and we went to unload the lift it was out of propane. We had to r ...

Pam did a real good job at keeping me informed on the progress of the shipment from the start to the end, in all it was a real good uship experience and I would definitely use her again on the next one.
