As a nationwide moving and shipping company, TSI has been serving America since 1989. We average 6,000 small moves per year, are DOT licensed and we carry an A-rating from the Better Business Bureau. We offer low rates and professional service on long distance small moves and shipments. You can rely on TSI for fast response, outstanding service and quality moving and shipping services. We clearly explain your moving and shipping options whether you need a small move, a full household move, or you need to ship only a few items including furniture, large boxes, antiques, large appliances, crated items, pallets, home exercise equipment, televisions, copiers, or other office equipment. If you are only moving a small number of items a long distance, we'll schedule and complete your small move quickly, reliably and for a fraction of the cost that full-load long distance moving companies or shipping companies would charge.

No Detailed Feedback Available Poor communications; didn't know where my furniture was. They sub'd it to Plycon so I should have gone to them in the first place and saved the middleman fees and headaches. Scheduling was horrible.
Response from TransitSystems:
According to our records, you never once contacted us to inform us that there was an issue with your delivery. We just contacted Plycon (who you really have the issue with) and they admitted that there was a miscommunication (thier fault) regarding delivery and they rerouted a truck to get your shipment delivered as soon as possible. Unfortunately, these issues arise on occassion. I just wish that you had gotten us involved prior to venting on Uship.

easy to use, I was disappointed that my first bid was cancelled and I was given a credit of $89 and a refund of the balance. So I basically had to use them again to use the credit. But it worked out ok. I would use them again.

I was very impressed with TransitSystems, the bid I accepted thru Uship.com and the employees who handled my transportation needs. They were sensitive to my special requests in protecting the items to be delivered to Santa Fe, NM on April 25th and everything arrived in perfect, "white glove" condition. It was a good choice from pick-up of the goods to their final destination and I would definitely use this service again should the need arise.

Did my items arrive safely? Yes. Did it take nearly a month? Yes. Read the fine print before booking...
Response from TransitSystems:
We were totally up front with this customer on time frames. The delivery spread (which was met) is not fine print it is part of the binding agreement.

The shipment took an extraordinary amount of time (6 weeks). The item was described by the seller as 250 lbs but it was closer to 350 lbs. and the first uShip guy back out of the contract adding 2 weeks to the shipment. Thus the shipment cost more than the item. However, the shipping crew was courteous and competent and the item arrived in good shape.
Response from TransitSystems:
This shipment was booked on 3/8, picked up in a week and delivered 3 weeks later... The exact timeframe that is listed in my quote and 4 weeks total. Rating low stars for another shipper backing out and adding 2 weeks is just wrong.

This shipper was a joy to work with. They had an issue with delivery which was our carrier's fault. According to the carrier, the shipper could not have been nicer and more polite when they were told of the miscommunication that resulted in a 5 day delay in delivery.

There was a change to the shipping price or terms that could not be resolved Bid was generated automatically. Item was too fragile to be moved blanket wrap. The increased cost to crate the item was more then the customer wanted to spend.

No Detailed Feedback Available The Service Provider is not able to accommodate this shipment No longer need the item shipped, Sellers unable to pack the chairs
Response from TransitSystems:
Yes, regretfully the person on the pickup end was not able to assist our customer - the match price assumed that the seller of the item(s) would prepare the shipment for safe transit; the buyer was not able to convince the seller to 'play ball'.

No Detailed Feedback Available Service Provider cancelled after communicating directly – did not feel comfortable moving forward I was not unwilling to prepare items or unwilling to pay, was simply inquiring as to my options, which were not at all explicitly stated in the bid. More importantly, I was told that I had to pay TransitSystems in full and would then be put in touch with local movers, and it would be my problem if the local movers couldn't pick up or deliver at a time that would work for me.
