After accepting bid, I learned hauler didn't even have a detach-neck trailer as specified. He said, no prob, he could do it. I later learned dozer may not roll. I told him NOT to get it if not rolling b/c I've no way to lift off.(32K lbs) He said due to steel deck he could slide it off. NOT! Cost me ADD. $2000 to have LIFTED on/off. Loader & unloader BOTH said he was the worst they'd ever dealt with.(THEIR WORDS) Sent driver on back roads b/c truck wouldn't pass DOT! And he left ME neut. FB???
Response from conrad777:
This dude is smoking crack!! He told me that the bull dozer will roll and that another dozer at the site would push it up on my trailer. When I got there, all the way in Ohio from Chicago, The dozer that was supposed to be able to push it coulden't even move it 1". I even disconnected my trailer from my tractor to pull it and snapped the chain busting out my taillight. And this guy never even mentioned to reimburse me. He then arranged to have a crane lift it on and off and I'M TO BLAME!!!!!

The raise of the price for the misunderstanding of the width was MUCH too high.
Response from conrad777:
The width listed on Uship by this guy was 7'7", when my driver got there the unit was 10' wide. We increased the price due to oversize permits, No night time driving, additional care and higher tolls having to be paid. I'm not sure if he listed the wrong info , trying to mislead us or if the implement dealer gave him the wrong info. Either way he did pay us the additional amount for it being an over size load and was congenial.

A scheduling conflict arose that could not be resolved conrad777 tried their best to resolve the scheduling problem but was unable to
Response from conrad777:
I bid this on may way out of Connecticut and Jim accepted the bid about 1 day too late, I was in Ohio by then. I did have a dozer to take out east but that guy lied to us about the weight and it was cancelled. Jim was very cool and patient and I would do business with him again. Unfortunately we did not have another load going out east in time and Jim had to hire someone else.

The Service Provider is not able to accommodate my shipment The provider truck is not able to carry the unit and require the unit to be dismantled which is not feasible and therefore i have to look for other trucking for heavy equipment.
Response from conrad777:
This guy FLAT OUT lied about the weight of the machine we bid. He said it was 48k lbs and before I went to pick it up, I called Catepillar and they told me it was 70k lbs. So I told this guy the bid would be triple the original amount because of oversize permits, and the additional care to haul such a heavy load. Also you can't drive at night with a oversize load and have to use rural old highways. It screwed up our schedule then and it was really disappointing that this guy miss lead us.

Overall the job got done with not damage but the freight company did not perform to the dates they stated according to THEIR plans. Instead of delivering Monday it was delayed 4 times then finally delivered Friday. This required us to change plans 4 times. I would use them again but I would also look around at other choices. They did communicate frequently so that was good but they just kept revising their plan.
Response from conrad777:
The guy that we delivered the 4 wheeler for and the guy that scheduled it were two different people. The owner of the ATV was very cool. The guy that scheduled it was a little nervous and got a little up tight. He must have thought I had a magic wand and could simply wave it and magically make the ATV go from Minnasota to Ohio. I would do business with him again but I would widen the window for time of delivery for an LTL load for him.

Hauled a none running forklift to me, they arranged the pickup and droped it off to me. Helped me get it into our shop. Nice company to work with. Thank You Erik
Response from conrad777:
Very nice good people. More genuine old fashion farmers. I have to say though that the unit we hauled for him looked more like scrap metal than a forklift. I would be interested to know if they ever got it running. Would definately do business with them again.

Rating: Positive Left for: mrnomac (3) On: 7/12/2009 For: Truckload Bulk Fertilizer	We never delivered anything for this guy. He had alot of scheduling problems and eventually he just cancelled. He was very cool and communicative and I would do business with him again.
Rating: Positive Left for: zodman71 (2) On: 7/12/2009 For: 2000 Jeep Wrangler	We weren't able to deliver this jeep for Chris. The guy he bought the jeep from was a total jerk and woulden't load it. So Chris lost out. Chris was very cool and I would do business with him again.
Rating: Positive Left for: Usabol (5) On: 7/12/2009 For: John Deere 8630	Johannes was a very good person. We were paid without any problems. There was some misinformation on the width of the tractor we hauled. When we bid it, the width was listed at 7'7". When we arrived to pick it up it was 10' wide without the outer tires on and almost 14' with the outer tires on. Luckily we had just hauled a wide load and had the additional equipment on board. But there was an additional fee and Johannes paid it without a problem. I would do business with him again.
Rating: Cancellation Left for: jtmjtm (1) On: 7/3/2009 For: One Ditcher	A scheduling conflict arose that could not be resolved A prior U ship customer that we had scheduled to haul a bulldozer out east for from the midwest lied to us about the weight, thus leaving a void in our schedule in which jtmjtm was part of the return load. A second load going east did surface but then this customer misled us about the width of his machine which delayed shipping it, which once again delayed jtmjtm. Jtmjtm was patient and tried too wait for us but we just had too many problems with other U ship customers to accomadate him.
Rating: Neutral Left for: farmalltom (4) On: 6/29/2009 For: International TD15	Tom was very polite and communication was not a problem. There was a problem with the information listed in that the bulldozer we shipped for him had frozen tracks and had to be liftef on and off of my trailer instead of pushed on and pulled off. We knew it wasn't running but no one knew that the tracks were frozen. It took 2 attempts to pick the machine up and unfotunately it took us longer than anticipated to deliver it. Tom was patient and did pay promptly.
Rating: Cancellation Left for: subukia (0) On: 6/18/2009 For: Caterpillar D8H	The customer misrepresented their shipment and I cannot service it The initial listing said the machine weighed 48,000lbs. I put in a bid according to that weight. Once Subukia accepted my bid, I asked him for the serial # off of the machine so I could find out all the exact specs to make sure he wasn't lying. When I called Catipllar for the specs they told me the machine weighed 70,000#'s. Being that this was the case. I told Subukia that I would not be able to ship the machine at the price I had bid.
