lawn trator with extra mulching deck

American Freight did a great job of picking this up for us in Texas and delivering up to Iron Mountain, MI. The price was very good. I had heard from a friend who had items delivered by them that they were good and was very glad they put their bid in for us and also did a great job. I would definately use uShip again.

San Marcos, CA to O'ahu, HI move: EXCELLENT

We were not good customers! Thank goodness Accommodating Transport was able to work with us anyway. All moves are a little difficult, as was our move from San Marcos, California to O'ahu, Hawaii. Changing homes, jobs & lives. Of all the problems we had to deal with, NONE of them were related to our service provider! Everything went smoothly. We were well-informed about the process and the rates.

First time graet experience

My firs time using uship, service provider excellent.

perfect experience shipping cedar chest

I needed to ship my Grandmothers antique cedar chest from florida to my cousin in n.c. When I went into u-ships web site to find a shipper I was amazed at how easy it was to get bids on shipping my chest from hundreds of shippers to choose from. I am so glad I found Ride0169 to ship for me. He was polite and efficient. He is a PRO. His prices are realistic and lower than the so called "big guys" p ...

Unemployed Single Female Needing to Move

After relocating from Florida to the Metro DC area, I was certain I would be there for more than a year. Little did I know that I would be laid off 6 months after moving. With no family in the area and after searching for jobs, I decided to move back to a more meaningful location--Home! Luckily, I hadn't acquired too many things, but I loved my plush Queen size bed and my exercise bike. After gett ...

The furniture I want is always up North...

I swear, everytime I saw a piece of furniture I wanted it was in Michigan or Ohio. I live in Florida. Until that day where i saw the 2 couches I just had to have (I'm adicted to a certain type of furniture). My problem, I'm a school teacher and like most people can't spend a fortune on my hobby. I phoned around, I called all the big shippers and got all the big prices. I eventually searched go ...

Full load shipment

Order was handled in timly mater,with no problems,u-ship is a very useful tool to finding great shipping deals,thank you

Shipping Bedroom Furniture

We've wanted pretty new bedroom furniture for 25 years and finally found it. However, the bed that matched the set was not available. After long searches, we found the bed in a store in Sioux Falls, SD, but they didn't ship. SD folks were great and really went out of their way to try and find us a way to get the furniture to Colorado. We even tried to rent a trailer to go get it ourselves, but U ...

Excellent service shipping truckload

I had contracted shipment of household and business items on skids with a logistic agent. After they picked up the goods, they refused to ship because skids were too large, which was not specified in their quotation. I turned to uShip my first time and received bid from Gaplogistics for approx. $900.00 less. Everything went smooth from pick-up to delivery. They also delivered to residential addres ...

Great experience shipping Large Floor Mirror from east coast to west coast

I shipped a heavy floor mirror which was 8Ft tall and 3.5 ft wide.I got a very good deal from treasurecoastshipping. I paid $100.00 for shipping from NJ to California.They returned my phone calls/emails on time and scheduled pick up on time. Delivery was on schedule and was delivered in perfect condition. I will always use UShip.

Very Positive

Carl Solwe was a very professional driver who delivered on time and in excellent codition. He was very accomodating in unloading and making sure the client was satisfied. I would definitely use uship again.

great experience shipping art

I had built a crate that weighed almost 150# and was too large for the traditional, commercial shippers. Now that I know about Uship, I'll never go back to those services for my large paintings.

The BEST experience in SHIPPING!

We were shipping some electric scooters and pallets of misc parts stored in a warehouse down south. We needed to bring them up north to our storage facility so we could have access to them. Our service provider Southern Eagle has been a god send. Not only were they professional and communicative, but also very patient with me. Whenever I had a question, Stephanie was there to answer it. When shi ...

MOTORCYCLE MOTOR

ALL WENT WELL. VERY GOOD COMMUNICATION THE WHOLE STEP OF THE WAY. THANKS ALOT.

Great service with a great price

The USPS wouldn't touch this package because it was too big. Fed Ex & UPS could do it, but for more than double what Mountain Transport charged me; and, they wouldn't come to my house. At a loss for what to do, I turned to the internet and came across uShip . . . you guys saved me from losing almost $400 on this fender! Many thanks to Mountain Transport for providing something that you don't of ...

Great Experience!

This was my first time using Uship. We had received a price from our man. to ship our product and it was sooo high. I found Uship via google and it was easy to use and reliable. Treishock was the shipper we ended up using and they were not only professional but also patient! We will def. use uship and Treishock for our future shipments! Well Done!

Tires

I had Pro Transport pick tires up for me and deliver them to me and They are 100 percent proffessional Transport service and No doubt triple rating for Earl of Pro transport. I would highly recommend them to any one.

FIRST TIME SHIPPING EXPERIENCE!

I HAVE BEEN IN AUTO BUSINESS FOR 24 YEARS AND ALWAYS HAD PARTS DELIVERED TO ME, BUT SINCE BECOMING A CRAIGSLIST JUNKIE HAD MY FIRST EXPERIENCE AT SENDING SOMETHING OUT OF AREA. HOW FRUSTRATED I WAS AT TRYING TO DEAL WITH THE BIG BOYS,UPS-FEDEX-AND BIGGER FREIGHT CO'S.PRICES WERE OUT OF SIGHT. HAD 2 OVER SIZE TIRES WITH WHEELS AND WAS GIVEN ESTIMATES BTW 350.00 TO 550.00.MY CUSTOMER ONLY PAID 300.0 ...

Was nervous at first, but over all delivery experience was great

I had a pedicure chair delivered to me from MD to Western NY and had a very wonderful experience. Ernie was great in communicating with me even when his cell phone did not work in this area, he got a hold of me by pay phone. I have to say, being new to Uship, I had my concerns with leaving an already paid for item of great value, in the care of someone I not only never seen, but never heard of. ...

Delivered from meltdown

I had a series of time sensitive shipments, there were minor hickups, but, more or less everything was working out... until my last truck got stuck fully loaded in New York City - with no hope of unloading. This happened at the last minute - all my trucks were too far away to replace it. I had less than 18 hours to find a truck - and it was already Friday night. "Carriers" came up with a truck and ...

great communications

the place where he had to pick it up at was a real jerk,but the driver went above and beyond to get me my transmission and was to wisconsin in record time,no goofing off for him i guess,just all business

Boxes of Books

My shipper did an outstanding job. He and his wife went the extra mile. Will use them again. Thanks uShip!

   Shannon at anyfreight, was in contact with me, vie cell phone  when my tractor part was being picked-up, in transit, and delivery to me, can't ask for any better.........Dave

Great Heavy Equipment Hauler

We are wholesale distributors of large, heavy, expensive, automatic generators that sometimes require special trailers.  Found a pro who was familiar with our type of product, had the right equipment, educated us in the finer points of loading and unloading it, communicated really well, was flexible despite factory and recipient delays, and caused our end-user customer to say, ...

Great first time experience

I was put in a position of having to ship commercial truck tires further than normal for my best customer. Together with Uship and transofflorida I was able to ship the tires at a rate that allowed me to still make a small profit.  The system used to recieve bids and then the communication with transofflorida made my first cross country shipment very easy.  I will be using uship in the f ...

Hassle free shipping

I was desparate to find someone who could deliver my 20 foot shipping container. No one seemed able to do it without cranes at both ends.  Mike Green knew how to do it. He was busy but listened to my pleas and found time to help me out. He went the extra mile in getting that 23,000 lbs monstrosity down to Georgia on schedule and as promised.   If I ever need to ship again I wil ...

shipping a car fender from California to Missouri

I shipped my 67 Camaro fender from California to Missouri using BrockettJ.  He did a great job and he was cheaper than any other bids.  I would be glad to do business with him again.

Excellent!!

Jeff did a great job....he was very helpful and nice.  I would recommend him any day of the week.  Thank you sooo much!!!!!!!!

shipping personal items

Gaetano was friendly, helpful, more than willing to go the extra mile even through the worst snow storm he'd ever seen in MN with transmission breakdown and, as if that wasn't enough, sick as a dog on top of that!

r1 Engine

Uship is very cool. My first experience using uship was good and will use again.

Great experience shipping my Exmark mower

U-Ship and Action Transport got it done. This was my first experience with U-Ship and it worked out great.

Flawless shipping experience!

As a first time user this was a wonderful experience. I found a wonderfully reasonable shipper who was able to deliver a sofa from NYC to Dallas, TX within a week and in perfect condition. I would not have been able to purchase my awesome new sofa without uSHip!! Thank you!

Good shipping

Very happy.  I think I like UShip

Excellent service in shipping my breeding mount

I have been holding off on shipping my breeding mount because of the cost involved.  I actually bought this item in June and the seller was kind enough to hold it for me as long as I wanted her to.  Finally, Tazzmania made a bid that I felt was fair and I accepted it.  He was GREAT!  He contacted me regularly letting me know what his itinerary was and didn't complain when I did ...

Shippers Big Adventure

:Whistling:This story is about the shipment of 45 antique fire hydrants weighing 6500 pounds from New York to California.  Four bids were received. The range from low bid to high bid was about $300.00. The shipper selected was chosen based on two factors, one was his 100% feedback rating, and the other was price. As agreed to time and place, the shipper met me in New York to load the fire hyd ...
