Nonstop problems. Didn't show, then showed up late. Didn't have a big enough truck, then couldn't come out until I had already moved out of town. I had to arrange with someone else to newt then at the storage unit to get my stuff. Changed the price after they picked up, held my stuff hostage for months. Tripled the price on me then made us drive an hour and a half to meet them and collect our stuff. Plus, they were a-holes. Worst ever! I've used uShip before with good results, but this provider

No Detailed Feedback Available Loren Wagner is the biggest crook that ever lived. Thomas B. Guthrie owner head crook of Empire worldwide. I trusted these crooks and they ruined my company by destroying my cargo and lying to me every step of the way. They will tell you what you want to hear to get your load and pick it up when they get around to it then hold your cargo hostage to extort more money out of you or your customer. This horrendous company cost me over a million dollar order.ripoffreport.com FYI Uship did nothing 4me

My shipment was picked up late, delivery was late, and communication was HORRIBLE! I was told I pack/load everyhing; it was all palletized and shrink wrapped how they wanted and it coinsedentally did not fit in the crate I was quoted for, costing $1000 extra! I was never given a weight limit, costing $165 for being over weight. I was told I could get a daily update, traking my stuff, maybe got 3 (and it took 15 days to get here) And there was damage but no one will respond to any messages.

The communication level was low. Never informed me of what was going on. Arrived when said they were not. Blame most of issues on trucker, did not inform people of what was going on. Specifically informed them that communication was a key for all but received little. I wish they would have asked me more questions so that I could have informed them of things. I would use them again but would press them for better communication from there end.

If we hadn't had a delay with Customs this shipment would have gone much smoother. We cannot forecast what is going to happen at the border and for that reason it did affect our service. I would recommend this shipper to anyone just be insightful to the fact that Customs may have a direct affect on what takes place as far as transit

Mike Larson delegated the loading of his merchandise onto our truck via a third party who in fact took up twice the amount of space that Mike had booked. When we alerted Mike of the increase, Mike Screamed at me saying that his merchandise should have gone into the space he booked and would Not be paying a dime more. The person that loaded the merchandise confirmed that the way he loaded it was the only way it could have been loaded without getting destroyed in transit. WE Caught Ya Mike!

I am no longer able to accommodate this shipment Empire's original driver went in and was told by Richie Bros.that the shipment had already been picked up. About two weeks later, the shipper called asking where his shipment was and we told him that the freight was picked up by another carrier; assuming he had arranged for another service provider. He then instructed us to go back in with another truck that it had not been picked up yet. The driver that we had scheduled has broken down with a major engine problem and we need to be take

No Detailed Feedback Available The Service Provider misrepresented themselves, their business or their services I has given this company all info needed to get this shipment from Ritchie bros in good time Ritchie bros told me they originally sent a van trailer in to get my equipment and were advised they would not load my equipment onto the trailer this then turned into a one month fiasco with nothing being resolved I don't feel they should be able to opt of the agreement without repercussions if I had know this company deals this way I would not have taken their bid.

No Detailed Feedback Available I no longer need my item(s) shipped I have run into a big financial crises and I need the money that I used for a deposit with this company. This company has been more than fair with me, and I know they would have safely delivered my items to Alaska. Unfortunately I have run into a dire need for money, and I have to cancel my shipment because of this. Thank you, and I hope when this is over, I can still secure your company to bring my belongings to Alaska.
