Questions for this shipment:

Question: Hello Shipper, We noticed your shipment and would like to provide services for you. Considering the timeframe you've indicated, we will have a truck in your area at that time considering we run to the west coast every 2 weeks. We offer respectable FLAT RATES suitable for all our customers. All items will be Blanket Wrapped, Padded, and Shrinkwrapped, before it leaves the residence and enters our truck. Also,....if you are Military, Senior Citizen, College Student, or Previous Customer you will automatically receive a discount so mention that in your response. Thanks for your time and we look forward to providing you with The Ultimate Moving Experience. We will Place our bid accordingly. Thanks, Meagan @ Access Unlimited Moving & Transport, LLC. (5/16/2009)

Response: The actual date is not firm. I expect to know in a week or so and it will be around 3rd week of June. 60% is already in storage and packed in boxes and wrapped in bubble wrap / cardboard etc and the remainder is at my home (this portion will need to be packed in boxes etc). Unfortunately I'm not in the military, a student or a previous customer... (5/17/2009)

Response: We are flexible with the dates so that will not be an issue. You stated that most of your items are currently in storage so you will require pickup from the storage as well?. The items still within the home are those larger items or it varies. Will you be needing packing services or will you be packign the boxes yourself....Meagan (5/17/2009)

Response: The majority of the items in storage are large items e.g furniture. The items in storage represent the majority of the goods and I would like them them to be shipped. Those items in the apartment are clothes and small items that will fit in boxes. I would require packing services for those items. I estimate the items to be packed to be no more than 8-10 med size boxes. (5/17/2009)

Response: We can do the packing for you on the smaller items, we ask that you pack your personal items. We will have to come a few days early to do the additional packing of the house which is extra $180.00. Also because your pickup consist of two locations we will charge extra for that as well. So looking at the packing and additional location we can do your move for $5520.00...Meagan (5/17/2009)

Response: Since we will have to move and find a home before shipping, we will pack up and consolidate the entire shipment into storage. Basically the entire shipment will be packed and ready to ship. Sorry for the delay in response. (my responses are a little out of sequence) (5/20/2009)

Response: We will work with you. We are here for you...Meagan (5/24/2009)

Response: Thanks (5/26/2009)

Response: We are waiting on you. Meagan (5/28/2009)

Question: Hello Shipper, we notice your other shipment and can include the shipment of the car for an additonal $480.00 making your total shipment at $6000.00...Thanks Meagan (5/18/2009)

Response: good to hear - since we will consolidate all our goods into storage ready for shipment - can you re-quite for shipment and car ? thanks. Please note that the car will need to be shipped before the household goods (we have not finalized the exact dates yet). (5/20/2009)

Response: We added the car to the quote and increased the shipment to $6000. Even if you havent found a new residence yet, we can lock you in for the move and will wait until you secure a residence. We will place our bid accordingly and we look foward to providing our services to you. Thanks, Meagan (5/21/2009)

Response: I've refined my vehicle shipment dates. The Car must be delivered by 6 June 09. How much time do you need - i.e. what is the latest Picup date ? (5/21/2009)

Response: We have place a bid for the house and the car. So you can go ahead and accept the bid and we can get the ball rolling...Thanks Meagan (5/21/2009)

Response: Would you be able to store the household goods temporarily once shipped in the event that we don’t have a place yet when the goods arrive in CA ? (5/21/2009)

Response: We can provide storage if needed. We understand the housing market is sometimes like a rollercoaster, so we will work with you in any way we can. Thanks, meagan (5/21/2009)

Response: Is there an additional charge for temp storage? Do you offer additional Full Value Insurance ? Would we have to provide a detailed inventory with replacement cost per item ? We would rather delay the pickup and rent a car in CA while we wait for the delivery a few days later. Pickup – 5 June 09 – Morning Delivery – a few days later in CA Is this Ok ? We've booked flights for 5 June. Sorry for all the questions - this is the 1st time we use uShip and didn't think of listing all the criteria when we first listed. (5/21/2009)

Response: We won't charge you for temporary storage so you can secure a residence. That would be predatory but I've heard that some companies do that. Also, Full Value Protection insurance is additional. It would range anywhere from $175 to $390 max. (considering on the coverage amount you desire). All your questions are respectable and definitely honorable. Feel free to ask anything you feel necessary and I will provide to the best of my ability. I promise you that after our team provides service for you, you will definitely be a happy camper. We will take good care of you and walk you thru the entire process. Thanks, Meagan (5/21/2009)

Response: appreciated. I would like to work with you -you seem very professional. I've just needed to firm my personal info / dates etc. I have re-listed with more info and better dates. (5/26/2009)

Response: We have it and can confirm the dates you've listed. Meagan (5/28/2009)

Question: have you thoughbt about shipping the car with the load and just renting a car in cali.if so i can do both and save you a chunk of money in these times we are all shaving corners to save a few bucks (5/21/2009)

Response: I have. It would be a trade-off depending how long the delivery takes, the savings for bundling vs how long I need to rent a car for ? Please Quote on shipping both. Would you be able to store the household goods temporarily once shipped in the event that we don’t have a place yet when the goods arrive in CA ? (5/21/2009)

Response: the rate quoed is for both the personnal effects as well as the car to be out ther witht load as far as storage yes we can store it for you while you get situated we will have it if you are ready when we pick it up to your doorstep within 7 days at the most (5/22/2009)

Response: thanks. I would want to take delivery asap. It's only in the event that I don't have a place yet. (5/26/2009)

Question: I know that you are new to this site and we will try our best to make it as easy and smooth as possible for you. One thing to look out for is to cheeck profiles to be sure that your transporters are licensed with the FMCSA. Licensed carriers have DOT#'s and MC#'s listed on their profile. (Those are the legal ones !!) (5/21/2009)

Question: If transporters go thru a weigh station and get pulled over. The motor carrier enforcement will ask for all licenses and documents. If they can't provide, they will be put out of service on the spot and the truck will be impounded. Afterwards, you may loose your goods or end up paying more than original. Always ask questions to be informed. (5/21/2009)

Question: if you book within next 24 hours ill take 150.00 off thanks (5/25/2009)

Response: Appreciated. I now have better dates and more info - please check my new listing. (5/26/2009)

Question: hello shipper, we are letting you know that we are going with the orginal quote we bid on that will included the car to.... also we have a move in north carolina on the 11th of june. we can pik up your shipment on the 12th of june and have it there 5 to7 days after.. let me know (5/26/2009)

Response: I fly out on the 5 June - so i need the car collected before then... the houshold goods are ready to ship. I would like it in CA no later than 15-19 June 09. (5/26/2009)

Response: ok we ready to pick up both shipment right now.... (5/27/2009)

Question: sorry not intrested in doing load any longer due to the fact that im assuming your stuff is located with carey moving and storage would be a conflict of intrest as i used to work with company and left them to go on own (5/26/2009)

Response: My household goods are NOT with Carey Moving and Storage. (5/26/2009)

Response: sent note (5/26/2009)

Response: sorry for the delay. - learning the site (5/26/2009)

Response: did you get note (5/26/2009)

Response: getting familiar with this site - not sure which note ? (5/26/2009)

Question: Hello Shipper and thank you for the bid request. I can pick up this shipment on 6/3 or 6/4. I have read through the Q&A's and understand everything you want to receive with your relocation. We would also include your car with the shipment. If storage is needed I have a company in Union City California that I have have been working with for 6 yrs now and can take the shipment to there warehouse and arrange delivery upon request ( if this is needed ). full replacement Insurance is also included with our quote. We are 100% legal and meet all FMCSA requirements. Please check out our profile and feedback and let me know if you have any questions. Our Bid for these services is 5500.00. Thank you in advance for your consideration. Mike (5/27/2009)

Response: Thanks for your response. Can I assume that your bid includes a few days of storage in Union in the event I don't have a place yet ? Pickup for 3 or 4 is fine. I have a few additional boxes that I want to include in our shipment that is not in storage. Could you collect those the same day you collect my household that is in storage. It's only a few miles further. What would the expected delivery time be ? I may sell my car, so please quote for the house move only for now. Thanks. Looking forwards to doing business with you. (5/27/2009)

Response: This price is the absolute lowest we could go. I can pick up your house hold Items and deliver them with in 7 days to California. I would have to deliver within 5-7 days from pick up. I really would not want to put these things into storage, for following reasons 1) having to load, unload, load and unload again is just to many chances for damages. 2) would not be cost effective, we would lose any chance of making anything on this move. I have given a price based on cubic feet. I have no problem going over to the house and picking up other boxes. I'm just worried about whether or not you will have a place with the time it takes me to get there. I don't mind waiting 1-2 days. If we can agree that we can unload when we get there and cut out the storage, also no car then I will bid at 5000.00. Please remember that once the bid is accepted you will pay a deposit of 500.00 on my behalf to uship, I receive the balance of 4500.00 which I will collect half on pick up and balance on delivery. (5/27/2009)

Response: Many thanks. We will try our utmost to get the additional boxes to the storage facility, so you would only have to load once. (5/27/2009)

Response: I'm sorry I have no problem going to the house from the storage to pick up the boxes at the house. I only want to make sure when we get to California we will be able to unload, once at your new house. I hope you are able to find a place once you get out there before we arrive. This is what I was talking about. Going over to the old house is definitely no problem. Sorry for the confusion. Mike (5/27/2009)

Response: Thanks. Trust me, I have 2 young kids - so I'm hoping to out of a hotel and into a house fast. (5/27/2009)

Response: lol I totally understand, I only have 1 left at home. She turned 6 today thats why I'm here on the east coast and planning to get out of here on the 2nd. Well let me know if we can be of assistance and I'll promise you a great moving experience. Thanks again ~ Mike (5/27/2009)

Response: Mike, in the event that I don't have a house at destination when the truck arrives, what options do I have ? As mentioned, I'm hoping to have a house and avoid this senario, but I have to be ready for the worst case. (5/28/2009)

Question: I also wanted to add that we can ship any cars. We can handle one with the shipment for 500.00. any others would have to go on one of our carriers, cost for this is 800.00. If we take a car with us it would arrive with us with in 5-7 days, this is the fastest you will be able to get a car across country. I have been doing this for 23years and know this business inside out. There will be two drivers on the truck so it will be there quick. Thanks ~ Mike (5/27/2009)
