the online shipping marketplace

pmcarr went the extra few miles to pick up my sofa, and delivered it on time. Even purchasing special equipment to transfer it across several states.

due to the gas prices, it was probably a bit more difficult to find shippers, but i was patient and able to wait out until i got a reasonable bit. the provider probably could've used a navigation system, but i didn't mind giving directions to him.

I had an "antique" rocking horse to ship from Arizona to Florida. Although there was no monitary value to the item, it was priceless to me as I had it for 45 years. Trying to ship the item through conventional means (UPS, FedEx Ground, etc) we were quoted over $600. I placed my ad on uShip, and fairly quickly contracted with OceanstoOceans. He picked up the rocking horse and delivered it - door to ...

My story is bittersweet. My grandmother can no longer live alone and we had to clean out her home of 45 years. In doing so, I knew I would love to take her heirloom piano and teach my young children to play, as she taught me. However I live over 800 miles away. Once we returned home and looked into piano moving services, we found them to be generally quite pricey for something like this. Howe ...

Hiring a mover is a scary thing, especially when you don’t know them or have a referral. Pace moving is very customer oriented and their communication throughout the process was as good as a consumer could hope for. Pace is first rate and I will use them again. They moved n organ and Piano from Maine to CT and not a scratch. Their workers were professional and gentlemen. A++++++++ thank you Pace

I am completely satisfied

When my parents told me they were selling the house I grew up in after 30+ years I was definitely emotional. One of the items that I was offered from the house was the custom pool table they had built in 1970. While I have no place to put it right now, it has a huge value to me having grown up playing both pool and ping pong on it. I looked into what it might cost to get it shipped from the Bay ...

I shipped an antique upright piano from my folks house in TN to my house in OR. This is the piano I learned to play on as a little girl. I remember my Dad taking it all apart and refinishing it when I was little. It had been black and ugly. He found solid mahogany underneath. With my Mom failing (she was the one who played), they decided to get rid of the piano. I was very fortunate to find uShip ...

I am a worry wart! I worried about the service provider showing up. (No problem) I worried about getting it loaded (No problem) I worried about a 12' wide load going down 9' highway lanes. (No problem) I worried most about straps, connecting to the pool, and breaking it while offloading. The night before it arrived, my boom truck to unload was on another job and unable to contact by phone! W ...

Chad bid on the shipment on Saturday, I agreed on Sunday he picked up Monday morning and delivered wed - he is wonderful!!

been telling all my family and friends about uship.com...what a great concept!

Stephen is a very experienced piano mover with whom we entrusted the move of our Steinway baby grand piano. He showed up on time and moved it with true piano-mover's expertise. We highly recommend Stephen if you want a safe move for your piano!

I was apprehensive about using U-Ship, not knowing what to expect from an all "on-line" service provider. My shipper placed an extremely low bid according to the shopping I had done. To my surprise, everything went VERY smoothly. I would definitely recommend this shipper and U-Ship to anyone who has something of value to move. Thanks for all your help and your great service!

I wanted to safely get my very large hot tub transported to the east coast, about 950 miles. I accepted a very fair bid from Shofar who was courteous and delivered all that was promised. He was available whenever I tried to contact him and he returned my calls. He packed my spa in a custom crate and delivered it 950 miles in 48 hours in perfect condition. He was exceptionally professional and ...

I needed my pool table moved. It was a complete mess. But, Robert was very PROFESSIONAL about it. He stayed really calm and took good care of me. I was sooo... impressed. He maybe one of the nicest guys I ever meet. Thanks again Robert!!!

Ok, so basically I was relocating from my apartment in Washington back to my home in Iowa after a year of college. I was going to go to school closer to home so I was packing it up and heading out. However, I wasn't sure where to turn. I surfed the internet and came across uShip. I wasn't too sure about it but I thought I'd give it a shot. I posted my listing a week or two before I was flying out ...

I looked for traditional shippers to deliver my recording console and found several, but none would have given me the personalized service that Steve Mulder from uShip gave me. The bid was originally high, but he came back with a reasonable price and he committed to delivering the console in good shape and on time, actually early.

Our family includes 2 young girls with a talent for playing piano. They had been using a small keyboard for years while we were seeking a piano we could afford. We prayed real hard that God would provide us with a piano and guess what? We recieved a donated piano from nothing less than a church. We justed needed to move it on our own. I searched high and low; even googled for all the shipping ...

no story

Paintings went to 3 different galleries. U ship was very helpful, I wanted to make direct contact with the firm that would handle my work. I saved $800 or so using U ship. I will use them again.

This is the second time I have used uship and on both occasions it was delicate freight and glass that could have easily ended up getting damaged but I have to say that both companies I had the pleasure of doing business with were brilliant and so professional, the second time I used uship the service providers vehicle broke down on the way to my house but the guy was fantastic - he rented another ...

After spending many hours calling piano movers listed in the yellow pages (who never called me back), I came across uShip online, and in minutes I had completed a listing, and I had three bids within just a few hours. One provider had several questions to ask and options to offer, and our communication through uShip worked great--no phone calls to miss or to return. The move was completed within ...

After my grandmother died in 1982, her desk went to Aunt Kay's. Now that she is gone I was offered the desk from my cousins. They are in all in San Diego, and I moved to Seattle years ago. Although the desk is not a "real antique" (1940's era), I hated to see it go to Goodwill, so I made arrangements to have it sent to me. I am now sitting at the desk typing up this note. Feels nice to be ...

I am an artist with a studio in New York City. When I have to ship artwork to a client or for a show, it can be very tricky finding a safe and reasonable way to ship the work. I am in a show in Charlottesville, VA and needed to ship 10 oil paintings there. Another artist friend said they had used a soft-pack/trucking method and it had worked. I had no idea where to find a good trucking source ...

Move was exceptionally smooth

We had a huge (18 ft by 8.5 ft by 7 ft)playhouse shipped from Florida to Indiana using uShip. It was the first time we have ever done something like this. After calling movers on our own, checking freight prices and just plain getting frustrated, I stumbled upon uShip online and gave it a try. GREAT experience! Was thousands of dollars under any other movers that gave us a quote (some just laughed ...

Shipped a piano from Atlanta to Cincinnati, Piano was moved with professional care, movers were friendly. Will recommend to anyone.

We had a great experience shipping using UShip. We have already placed another bid to move our large furniture to our new home. It is a great way to get a competitive price! The rating system is a reassurance that you selecting a qualified bidder. Thank you!

My mother offered to give me my childhood piano for her grandchildren to learn to love music with. We live in different cities, and all moving quotes I got from "traditional" sources were above $1,000. At those prices, I could have bought a new piano, but I really wanted to have the piano I grew up with for sentimental reasons. I remembered reading a blurb about uShip in a magazine, so I posted ...

I Needed it delivered to Rome,NY.from Long Island,NY.Using U-Ship was great! My service provider was excellent! Yes I would use U-Ship again. Thank`s!

the mountain man did a great job moving a family heirloom piano that had been in our family for over 30 years. He was right on time and did a great job with no extra charges.

Shipper did a wonderful job moving our piano across the state. They communicated very effectively and were on time and very nice. The move could not have gone better!!! WE would use them again!!

We were very happy to find Uship on the internet. At first we were unsure of using an online service, but we were really desparate as no other shipper seemed to be able to handle our unique and heavy item. My husband had purchased an antique safe (3000lbs)No freight company wanted to touch the job unless we had it crated up and then the cost was nearly $3500.00 but through Uship we were able to ...

He moved it wih ease and was on time. He was a very easy person to work with. I would recomend Just4paws moving company to anyone.

Odd, rare, fragile antique chair moved far in just a few days. Blanket wrapped, in great condition on arrival, moved just as if it had been in my own car. Better price than commercial freight forwarder or moving consolidator type company.

I was assisting a relative who had inherited a beautiful antique clock but had no place for it in her home. We had no idea how to proceed to sell it. Then, we had received the name and address of a reputable antique dealer but had to get the clock from Florida to Massachusetts! Using U-Ship saved us $250.00!!

I bought this piano for my son when he was 6 yrs old and began piano lessons. 21 yrs have passed. He has graduated from college, and moved to many cities with his work. I have held on to his piano, waiting for him to have his own home. He bought his home in Oct 2007 and we have been trying to figure out how to get his piano home to him in a practical and affordable way. UShip came thru for us. ...

I was a nervous wreck trying to figure out how to move a fragile antique sideboard that was being given to us by my husband's family. U-ship site gave me many options and saved us at least $600. The carrier took excellent care of the piece and we are anxiously awaiting when we can actually display it in our home after it is restored.

I needed four large mural paintings shipped from Pennsylvania to Colorado. USHIP came to my rescue and I found a great match who got my paintings safely to Colorado in two days!!! I was able to save a lot of money using an independent trucking company instead of a commercial freight company. It saved me loads of money. Most importantly, my fragile artwork, made it to its destination unharmed. ...

Glad to use them.

This was my first experience with hiring online shipper. I can't believe how easy it was. The ratings system provides useful comparisons. I would have been lost without this site.

I bought a harp for my daughter in Colorado and needed to have it shipped to our home in Utah. I found uShip online and decided to try it out. Our service provider did a great job. The harp was picked up by the service provider at the residence in Colorado where it was located and delivered to our home in Utah. The provider went the extra mile and carried the harp into our home. We saved abou ...

Scott did a terrific job. He could not have been more professional and careful. My air hockey table arrived without a scratch on it. Also--he was very good about communicating from the day he got the job until the final delivery. Many thanks, and I will definitely use Scott again if I ever have another move in the future.

My mover did a wonderful job. He was professional, stayed in contact, and he treated my shipment (which happened to be a piano, but he will do any kind of shipment) very carefully. I would use him any time!

My transporter Robert aka "STICKMAN" communicated with me all the way and his professional packing for transport ensured the safe arrival of an easily damaged and fragile item.You would have to know me to understand how anal I am when it comes to items that are damaged in transit due to poor packing.I deal in antiques that have stood the test of time and there is nothing that irks me more then hav ...

I needed to ship an antique horse cart known as an Irish Jaunting Cart from California to New York state. After reading all the positive feedbacks from Kurt of Summit Transport, I decided to hire him. He also was very competitive on his bidding. I couldn't have had a better experience. I did not know that the pick-up location was going to involve him getting his rig up a long steep driveway, but i ...

My wife told me she wanted her Aunt's piano that was bought for her Aunt by her Grandfather. Her Aunt wished for the piano to stay in the family. As a good husband I jumped. My wife is excellent. She asks for little. I'd like to think I provide well for her and our two babies. When my wife says she wants something, I jump... out of respect. As it was, I searched online to find a piano mov ...

I have to admit, I was a skeptic. This seemed to good to be true. I bought some Pilates studio equipment which almost broke the bank so I really had to limit my shipping cost. I called a few shipping organizations and was getting quotes from $500 to $600. I found uShip via a google search and wow, I am glad I did. I ended up having my item shipped by a wonderful carrier for $175. Well worth eve ...

I SHIPPED A CRATE OF ARTWORK 40 X 70. PICK UP WAS PROMPT AND DELIVERY WAS EVEN MORE PROMPT. THE OWNER WAS GREAT TO DEAL WITH. I WOULD GLADLY DEAL WITH THEM AGAIN AND AGAIN. AAAAAAAAAAAAA++++++++

I needed to have my wife's piano moved from NY as her uncle was tired of housing it. I didn't want to pay an arm and a leg to do so. uShip turned out to be the answer. I quickly got several bids within my price range and was able to compare feedback for providers to make sure they were on the up and up. Howard delivered my piano going out of his way when the schedule became somewhat problemati ...
