Question: We are interested in your shipment, when are you looking to have this shipped? thanks Terry; EAGLE, GLOBE & ANCHOR. (1/2/2008)
Response: Well we would like to have it picked up on Thursday the 24th of January and dropped off on or after the 28th of January. Reason being is that we will be in the VA Beach area on the 24th and 25th and then we will be driving to Wisconsin to our new home. Otherwise we will be leaving the keys with the owners of the storage unit. The cars are British and they are old so it can be tricky starting them that is why we would like to be there to help. Let me know if the dates are ok and go ahead and put in a bid. Thanks for looking. :) Happy New Year! (1/2/2008)
Question: Come on people here are some people surving and protecting our country Just trying to get home and get on with there life. two mins don.t take a whole trailer hopefully someoen can help them out getting there cars home for may 7-8 hundred so they dont have to spend all there savings. thanks just a fellow trucker and whithout getting in to it I have done my share but I don.t have a car hauler. (1/3/2008)
Response: Well thank you very much. This is our first time using UShip so we really weren't sure how much to price it at. The Mini's are really small so they don't take up too much room. The reason we are shipping them this way is because the military won't ship them for us. Besides we just bought our first house and I have stuff in Maine and he has stuff in Virginia that we need to ship. We are driving from Maine to Virginia and picking up his car and then driving to Kenosha to finally settle in. So much to do before he checks in his next duty station in February. Anyway thanks again for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. Blessings. :) (1/3/2008)
Response: NO thank you GOD BLESS all our people and good luck,we all cross paths out there some where. (1/3/2008)

Question: Sorry to take so long getting back to you. Our schedule has changed and the driver has to be back in WI on 1/15. If anything changes and we can get out there by the end of the month I'll rebid. Otherwise, good luck with your shipment! (1/7/2008)
