Great Experience

Using UShip was a great experience. I just could not imagine how we were going to afford to move everything 600 miles away. Uhaul was very expensive and I am not capable of helping my husband to load and unload so I was worried about how we were going to get it done. UShip solved all those problems and was less than renting a Uhaul and paying the fuel to go 600 miles. What a great experience.

Great way to plan a move

I had a very good experience with this organization. I was making a major life changing move. I had limited funds and wasn't sure how to do it all. The provider I found thru USHIP made everything easier affordable and took a huge burden off my shoulders.

Moving from NJ to DC

I planned to move from NJ to DC and initially thought I'd rent a truck and move myself. I had heard of uShip and decided to give it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised that the bids I received for a 2 bed apt move were in the same price range as what I would have spent on just the truck rental, gas and hiring local help. I had bids anywhere from $650 to $2400. I must admit that I was somewhat skept ...

Great uShip Experience

We heard about uShip through a friend. The service was great and saved us at least a few hundred dollars. Made the decision to move ourselves versus hire a mover very easy.

GREAT JOB

Tim and Josh did a GREAT job, I would recommend them to all I know. They were there at 7:00am which is the time I wanted. Very nice young men. Josh was really a hard worker. I had alot of heavy furniture but they did not complain.

Good move from FL to AZ

I planned a move from FL to AZ with a small budget. As a single mom with two kids, I really had to watch my money. Someone suggeste this site so I figured, why not give it a try. My estimated moving expenses to rent a moving truck and drive cross country would have eaten up all my savings. I decided to post on here and found a mover to do it for 2/3 the cost. The mover was great, even came through ...

Great move of household furniture

Jeff moved my mother's furniture from Ft.Lauderdale, Florida to Duluth Georgia,all I can say the move was perfect. Uship excellent website.

Very good service.

I moved to my new home from two bed apt. I'm totally new in this area and I didn't know who is a good mover. But after googling I found this site and movers bid for me. I can read other's evaluation to decide who is good. It's very important. thanks.

Great experience.

Daryl and his team were great. I ask for 3 things from my movers; reasonable price, professionalism/respect for my furniture and rapidity of service. The guys finished the move in 3 hours (mostly furniture only, I did the majority of the boxes myself) and did not grumble about the 3rd floor (!) nor the size/weight of the pieces. The price was very reasonable. Overall, I was extremely happy.

Furniture

Slick service. Needed some misc. items picked up several states away. It was much cheaper than a traditional moving company. Love the fact that it works like Ebay and there is accountability. Would use again!! Saved money and worked great!

2 bedroom apartment furniture

great experience. Everything went perfect..I can't say enough good things. I expected a lot more problems.. If you give these guys all the correct information, they are super efficient and very thorough..

Remarkable uShip experience

We were moving from A to B, and a friend had recommended uShip to us. The bidding process went smoothly, we got the price we wanted and (a promise) of the service we wanted. So far so good. But then, things started going south. I tried in vain to get in touch with our service provider. Emails and voice mails went unanswered. For three weeks. Disheartened by this development, I decided to keep a ...

Apartment move

We moved from southern to northern California and had a very full 2 bedroom apartment in addition to garage items. I got quotes from all the national movers and was referred to uship by a friend in the shipping business. I was a little nervous at first about hiring an unknown but we were really tight on budget and the opportunity to save hundreds of dollars was hard to pass up. I'm so glad we h ...

Good experience moving my household

We moved our entire household to Orlando, but we were moving ourselves to Wisconsin from Dallas...two cross-country trips in opposite directions! I received a great bid very quickly and we moved less than 48 hours later. I would recommend this experience to many others, because I saved a ton of money compared to moving myself twice across the country. Thanks, uShip!

Chicago-New Haven

I need to move my 2-bed room for a spcific data to start my job. So on-time is my priority! 2nd would be the price. The J&S did a great job for my shipping! They are very nice people and have done what they promised! It saved us a lot of money and stress! I just packed my stuff and they came on time and deliver on time! I'll definitely use uship again!

great job with the MOVERS...

Being new to the whole 'movers' thing as well as trying to find them online, I suppose uship was technically useful because I got a gist of what the going rate is. However, I realize now that it is so much more economical to try and book the movers directly. There's no almost $30 'service charge' and most book by the hour so you pay for what you use, instead of a pre-determined "this is how long t ...

Exceeded our expectations.

We needed to move only a portion of our goods in order to furnish a temporary apartment while leaving our home mostly furnished to aide in the sale of the property. We saved a considerable amount of money and the service was excellent. Our service provider was flexible and efficient. They allowed us some last minute flexibility in what we chose to move without worrying about small changes in w ...

Good experience with my 2-bedroom

I needed to have my entire 2-bedroom shipped from Missouri to Texas, and was facing a $500 rental fee just for a truck (not including gas and the cost of 2 movers on each end!). Uship allowed me to hire First Class Moving Services for a price comparable to what I would have paid to move myself, with MUCH less hassle. I did take it upon myself to really look at reviews, request bids, and provide an ...

Very prompt and helpful service moving our apt. to the midwest.

We moved a two bedroom apt. from Albuquerque to Chicago and the movers were great. They were fast, easy to communicate with during the move, patient, and extremely safe and reliable. Very positive moving experience.

Great experience shipping my belongings

I moved my two bedroom townhome from Southern California to Northern CA. This was a sudden move and I was so pleased with using USHIP to find such a great mover at an amazing price. I am a completely neurotic, obsessive-compulsive planner and I had a ton of questions and concerns. My service provider was so great! He responded to all my e-mails and phone calls and was completely prepared when ...

Great tool for money conscious people

First time users of this service and are very pleased with the result. Movers (LongFa Transportation)were great and experience was positive. We will use again most definitely!!!

Still waiting

I have been dealing with a person named Patrick Smith since May 08. The problems started from the very beginning, the date scheduled for pick up was not kept. He requested full payment which I did, but what a big mistake that was. When the furniture was actually picked up from my home it was moved by a local mover and it was only to a storage space that I paid for. I was promised that the furnitur ...

Outstanding job with all day local move

Maxon Movers were absolutely the best movers we've ever dealt with. They were punctual, professional and very courteous. They handled 2 moves in one day for us which made for a long day but they handled it with ease and with no damage whatsoever. They were very thorough and took great care in handling all of our stuff including some very heavy,awkward pieces of furniture. We absolutely would u ...

Great Move

We were moving a 2 bedroom apartment from Albuquerque to the Chicago area. We researched full-service movers, u-pack movers, and renting a truck. The best value option turned out to be the bid we received from Jason at Patriot Express. We felt confident using his services because of his 100% positive feedback under his listing. He did not disappoint us by providing excellent communication and serv ...

good experience in shipping my apartment goods

The service provider was exactly on time on picking up and delivering the goods. They were also very flexible about timing, communicated well though out the whole time and I will reccomend them for others. The only thing is as they are new in moving busines, a little bit unorganized which overcome by time.

USHIP WORKS!

Uship forces the companies to compete with each other in order to get your business, so it is very beneficial to the customer. If you like, you can set a target price, and that may work well, because in that case, only the companies who would be in your price range will communicate with you. The target price option worked for me. At first, I got bids for $1800, after setting a target price of $ ...

THE BIG MOVE

We were moving from our apartment that we stayed in for 6 years. We had a lot of stuff for us, our three kids and inventory for home business. I mean A LOT. This is the first time we hired a professional movers. before I would just rent a moving truck and hire two guys who hang around the hardware store. I found out that professional movers are more efficient and saved me time and money. Thank you ...

2 Bedroom Shipping

My wife found USHIP and requested bids when my son and our 25' boat needed to be moved out of the Florida Keys to North Carolina quickly to take advantage of a school start date. With the price of fuel, demands of our jobs, and short time deadlines, we were unable to affect the move ourselves. USHIP provided the answer and within hours we had several competitive bids to choose from. We chose the b ...

Great long distance home move

Very glad I used uShip for my 1300 mile move. I need to give my mom the credit for finding uShip - she read about it in her local paper and sent the article to me. It was so much easier than using "traditional" movers since I was able to put all of the information about my move on the uShip site, and at my convenience (as a busy professional, convenience is key!). I received a bid almost immedi ...

Fast Friendly Service

We moved a 2 bedroom Condo from Florida to Indiana. They moved everything out, wrapped our couches and furniture that way they did not get dirty or damaged. We had our stuff in less than a week in Indiana, over 1200 miles away. Very cheap considering the price of diesel. I couldn't of taken care of my shipment better than they did.AAAAA++++++++++

Great Experience shipping housegoods

I am a first time user of Uship, and had heard nothing but horror stories about moving from friends who had thier stuff stolen, damaged, or held for ransom by someone they had found online (not through Uship, though). I received several bids, and this one was the least money for the most services, including packing everything up for me. The communication was great with Mike, and he answered all of ...

LIKE FAMILY

John, Kathy and Joe are family members...and it came across in everything they did for us...we were treated with respect, shared laughs, and tears, this was a big deal to us and it was treated as such! Moving is not easy for anyone! They worked themselves to the bone in the heat and the rain...they deserve a great deal of appreciation!!! A job well done!!!

Great experience

It was a great experience for us. He was very helpful.

First uship experience - a cross-town move in Austin.

I was too tentative about a new service like uship to try it out on a recent cross-country move, but recently put out a listing on a cross-town move. I found a fantastic service provider that was much more affordable than the pro movers, more affordable than renting my own truck, certainly more affordable than a brokered moving service. I dealt directly with an honest, hardworking independent oper ...

Terrific Move through U-ship

Between myself and my friends, I'd say we've moved ourselves and others about 50 times. At this stage of my life, I really wanted to sit back and let somebody else do the heavy lifting. Going through U-ship was the answer. I was matched with a great team of young strong guys, who knew what they were doing. My estimate in both time and money were right on. If you're considering a move and don' ...

condo move

These guys worked hard through the Florida heat and moved all my belongings with great care and speed. Great team of movers!

2 Bedroom Apartment

I would def use Uship again. My moving experience was very easy and quick. Thanks to my service provider and Uship. It def saved me time and money!

I Bedroom Condo Moved to Colorado

I placed my items that I was trying to move to Colorado on Uship. I received several bids, however, Michael at Expedited Load Services submitted the best bid and he was eager to get my items moved efficiently. He was punctual and communicated with me the entire time my items were enroute to CO. He was very professional and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Michael and his company ...

Moving After a Fire

My apartment caught fire in the attic in March and everything had been a huge hassel, as you might imagine, from the beginning. Though most of my things were damaged by smoke or water rather than fire, it was difficult to get to everything. We had spent weeks cleaning up after the minor fire and were finally ready for the movers to come. After saying "wow" a few dozen times as they walked thro ...

Frantic Move

What a great site and what a great company I hooked up with...I was 3 weeks from interview to relo'ing to another city for work. And they made it all happen. Great people, just lovely. All my things are safe and sound, they were great communicators, I just cannot say enough. Have recommended this site and the company I worked with to friends. What a fab experience on what could have been a ...

out of town move

Jeff was on time and he really worked hard to get all my things out into the truck. two of my items wear distroyed and Jeff was willing to work a deal his father was not he was kind of rude and kept telling me that my shelf was cheap and that's why it got tour up.

Shipment

Dear all, I have to move my apt stuff like queen bed, TV , dining table , kitchen stuff, computer desk , table chairs lot of boxes etc from Canton to Farmington Hills. I put a advt in uship and got the bid from DK Moving (David Bodary & Co) and delivery service . They are very professional movers and did a great job by moving my stuff quick and fast without any time delay. I liked their pun ...

Great Flexibility!

As sometimes happens, we had quite a few more items than we first estimated. We were able to negotiate a price quickly and easily that satisified all parties. This was really appreciated and saved us from having to move a bunch of stuff ourselves! Thanks so much! Lance Rengstorf

Uship

I relocated from Evanston, Il to Charlotte, Nc and I thought that I was going to pay a arm and a leg. I used uship and found the best company for the job that did not try to break my pockets.

Kitty Cats! Great Long Distance Move!

We have had items in storage in Las Vegas, NV for 4 years. We called on Robert to ship our items all the way to New Haven, CT. As soon as I heard his voice and assurance I knew everything was going to be O.K.:) There were a few very special things that I really wanted which was my daughters baby pictures, Ninja Swords,Panther inn tables, and a picture of a panther sitting on top of the world. It w ...

great moving experience

everything went really smooth, really fast and kept great communication...i would recommend them to anyone.

Movers Nominated for Sainthood?

Our movers were beyond patient, fast and courteous! Washburn Moving did an OUTSTANDING job! We had to move a 2 bedroom apartment with very sort notice because of a bad tenant that lived next to us. Bob and his team were more than willing to work with us and became our moving angels. I'm sure they should be nominated for sainthood since we are 2 busy professionals and at times couldn't remember ...

Great Job

Due to an auto accident, I couldn't be present during my move, however, my friends took control and showed up with the moving crew and everything was accomplished as planned. Everyone wanted to know where I found these guys, because they were great! They came in did the job, very friendly, were very conscious about how they handled my furniture. Got everything done, just as they had told me the ...
