Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hi, this is Ronnie from Golan VanLines. I am bidding this based on the inventory that you presented. We would provide you an exclusive trailor sent directly to your destination for the bid price. This includes full service and a door to door relocation. We have been in business for 9 years and are licensed through the Department of Transportation. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Regards, Ronnie (2/12/2008)
Question: thank you for your bid request, will you pack the boxes or you want us to do the packing ? (2/12/2008)
Response: All of the boxes are packed. Everything is in a storage unit. The beds, couches, etc. are wrapped. A few boxes need the top re-taped, but that's easy. There are a few thing that don't go in boxes like bikes, tool boxes, some toys, etc. That is all loose. (2/12/2008)
Response: thank you and what is the size of the storage unit ? (2/12/2008)
Response: 20X20 (2/12/2008)
Question: Shipper I will be in CT on or about the 22nd and can load and deliver with in 7days for 3000.00. Please check out our profile and feedback. If this date isn't to late for you let me know and I'll set a formal bid. Thanks ~ Mike (2/12/2008)
Response: Hello, Do you load it in and unload and put in the rooms. What is all included? Loading, Unloading, any unpacking? The date is a little later then we had wanted, but may be workable. we would have to have an exact pick-up date because we need to be there for the pick up. Is this your best price that you can offer? I have gotten a couple people who say they can do for less. Let me know! Thanks! (2/12/2008)
Response: This would include us loading and unloading and placing everything where it goes, we will reassemble anything we can beds, tables etc. There's no doubt you can find lower bids, however I know and can prove that I'm 100% legal and insured, D.O.T compliant and as you can see from my feedback I have a good track record. I aim to please. I firmly believe for every one customer you my happy you may get another, but for everyone you upset you lose 10. So worth that said I hope I can make you a happy customer. As far as a date I would say it would have to be around the 22nd. If you accept my bid we can work it out for the both of us. Thanks again for considering and hope to hear back from you soon. ~ Mike (2/12/2008)
Response: I really need the stuff picked up on the 16th-Saturday-so that may not work for you. Now the drop-off could be anytime between the 20th and the 25th. I really need to stay within budget and have to stay between $2600-$2900 Please let me know how this works for you! Thanks so much! Joie (2/12/2008)
Response: Joie, I just sent you another bid please review and let me know. I'm in route to Florida right now and would be back in the northeast around the 22nd. Thanks ~ Mike (2/12/2008)
Question: Dear Shipper, we can send our tractor trailer for pick up on February 16 as requested. Delivery would be within 2-4 days. The trailer came from Florida yesterday and we are scheduling new loads at this moment.Please get back to us as soon as you can, so we will reserve a time for you. We are looking forward to hear from you soon!Regards,Vili (2/12/2008)
Response: Hello, What is all included with your service? Everything is already boxed, a few boxes need the top re-taped that is it. Everything is already wrapped and ready. So you do all of the loading into the truck, and in Florida will you do all of the unloading, put the correct boxes in the correct rooms, set-up beds, etc? Do you do any of the unpacking? I could pay 1/2 at p/u and 1/2 at delivery in cash, but I will be honest I need to have a lower quote. What can you do on the price? Thanks! (2/12/2008)
Response: Thank you for getting back so quickly.Our service includes:loading/unloading, setting up furniture at the time of delivery,putting all the boxes in the rooms as per your direction, gas, tolls, mileage, moving blankets and moving insurance.We can try to work on the price but first we need to know the approximate shippment cu.ft. If you do not know, tell us the precentage of the space filled in the storage unit.What is your target price? Regards,Vili (2/12/2008)
Response: It is a 5 Bedroom house in a 20X20 unit. We already have everything wrapped in the moving blankets, that's done. All boxes are packed and the same size. The unit is 3/4 of the way full, but only 1/4 is to the top with the couches, beds, table, etc. The rest is boxes, bikes, toys, etc. I can pay cash 1/2 at p/u and 1/2 at delivery. I want a firm price, and I want it in writing. I have heard of so many people having horror storys with movers that quote 1 price and then try to jack it up upon unloading. I have gotten alot of quotes, and not just on here. They do vary alot! I have had the most quotes from $1800.00 to $3500.00(Big range, huh) My ultimate target would be $2600.00, $1300 at p/u and $1300.00 at delivery. Just give me the best that you can do. Remember everything is boxed, and wrapped and in 1 location at the pick-up. Hey thanks alot Vili! Joie (2/12/2008)
Response: By the Uship policy we have to give a bid according to the provided inventory list. As long as you are moving the household goods you mentioned, our price is binding. All the prices you have received from elswhere were based on weight and they are not binding.After doing some re-calculations, the best price we can give is $ 3600 Choosing a bid from Uship you will not experience any rip-offs.Best Regards, Vili (2/12/2008)
Response: Hello, Now I am going off of memory because I am not right there at the unit, I may be a little over on some things, but that's ok. I have a question if there is 55 boxes instead of the 50 I put is that ok? I don't think there is anymore than 50, as a matter of fact I think it's in the 40's but I put 50 to be safe. 1 other thing I just remembered there is a small 4 wheeler in the unit. Does this matter? My husband will also be there, he can load and unload that out of the truck himself. Ahh, come on Vili I need a little lower. Can we do $3000.00? If we can do $3000.00 and you can p/u on Saturday the 16th and drop off sometime between the 17th-23rd.(please let me know the est. arrival date)I can accept the bid today and get this party started!!! Let me know! Your best friend, Joie (2/12/2008)
Response: Hello!I did calculations on my end again, and I am getting about 1900 cu.ft.Only transportation expence is $1,50 per cu.ft.And also Uship takes 10%,plus movers'salary.All together came to $3400. I wish I could help.But in this case this is the best we can do.Sincerely,Vili (2/12/2008)

Question: Hello,we are looking at your listings.we can move you.(gtorn) (2/12/2008)
Response: I did receive your bid, but I cannot go over $3000.00, I really need to be at $2800.00, so $3000.00 is already over my budget. What all does your service include? Thanks for your time! (2/12/2008)
Response: we did bid 3800 we can do 3500 that is a full service inluding all extras may have.gtorn (2/12/2008)
Response: Sorry, I just can't go that high. Plus everything is already packed, boxed, and wrapped. I just don't have it in the budget. Thank-you for trying! Joie (2/12/2008)

Question: i have 26' box truck i can do it for $3600 pening it all fits (2/12/2008)
Response: It won't fit. Thanks anyways! (2/12/2008)
Question: Wow, there are alot of people asking questions here. I can say that if you go with me you will not have a worry in the world. My equipment is new, I have semi truck compacity, I carry ove 150 furniture pads, and I can pick up this week and deliver door to door. The big thing is that I am not worried about what you have because I can fit it all. Take the time to read my feed back and please lets make this easy for you. Thanks (2/12/2008)
Response: Feedback looks good! Yes I have had alot of action from alot of good movers! So QU1CKSH1P what is the very best price you can give me and let's see if we can get this ball rolling. I really would like to lock in tonight with a good, qualified, and responsible mover. Give me your bottom line and let's get this stuff moved! Thanks for your time! Joie (2/12/2008)
Question: hello we just came into an agreement about your move we can do that on your date for 2500. we will go ahead and place another bid.gtorn (2/12/2008)
Question: Clnbiker is the guy. I looked through all the feedback and profile. Honestly, I would not haul it for the prices you are getting. So don't beat Clnbiker up anymore, his bid is very competative. His service appears to be very good. I've done 750 moves a year for 11 years straight now, so I think I know what I'm talking about. True value of move is $5000, even in winter. So $2600 is great. Take it! (2/12/2008)
Question: (2/12/2008)
Response: I do like his feedback, but for one thing the dates are 1 week later then we need. I was trying to work it out, but don't think that I can get the dates to work. Thanks for your input! Joie (2/12/2008)
Response: OK, good luck working it out. Thanks for hearing the input. (2/12/2008)
Response: I don't think all of the other people are bad. Alot of them have good feedback as well. Thanks! (2/12/2008)
