We had some problems communicating with the contracted shipper, PPM. Eventually, he passed the job to another company, and things went more smoothly. The problem is that once you pay the deposit up front, you are stuck with the carrier for better or worse. Fortunately, he took care of us, but it took a long time to get there.

As a person whose been in business for nine years and always turning away out of state business due to the complexity of shipping out of state I was extremely apprehensive to do so for the first time. I could not have asked for a better experience! I sing high praises for Delta Transfer. I appreciate their professional follow through. I was especially impressed by their communication. I NEVER ...

I used U-Ship to cut the price quoted by an independent shipper in half. I have had hideous past experiences shipping households with major carriers, but was willing to "risk" a new service to ship one item. Everything worked out beautifully.

This was our first time using Uship and am please to report it went very smoothly. The website is easy to use and the quotes that we received came back very promptly. We would definitely use this site again for our shipping needs. Eventhough we were a little apprehensice as to the quality of service we would receive, we were fortunate to find a great shipping service to use and will definitel ...

My sister wanted my coctail table and the bids from local shippers were very high. I was told by one of them about uship... and the rest is history. What a great idea.

The bed was delivered in perfect shape, but the communication from AeroStar could have been a lot better. We waited three weeks later than we expected to receive our bed, but in the long run we realized that AeroStar could not do anything about it due to certain circumstances.

I bought an antique dining room on Ebay at a really great price. Unfortunately, it was in upstate NY and I'm in FL. The seller suggested UShip and I got a few quotes. I was a little nervous because I got a really good quote, almost too good, but everything turned out great! My dining room set arrived in a timely manner, no damage and there were no hidden fees. So, I got a great deal on shippin ...

My sister and brother in law needed some furniture for thier new place. My mother had several pieces of furniture for them. Needed shipping from RI to MD. With young child, another on the way and him fresh out of the Navy starting a new career, it was difficult for them to schedule and find someone to do it. I found a carrier here on Uship for them. We were all in awe of how professionally handle ...

I had checked out the major van lines and rental of trucks. All quotes were far too long a period of time or almost triple my uship quote. uship was a very user friendly site. Thanks for a successful shipment.

This is my first experience with u-ship and it was very positive. Received great communication from the shipper all along the way. Was very prompt and took great care of the merchandise. I was extremely happy with the entire experience. Would definitely recommend shipper to anyone

My wife and I were very pleased to find a shipper who would help us with the transport of our old desk. It saved us having to drive 4000 miles to pick it up. Thanks.

Thhe company that contacting me worked-out very well. However, I am having trouble contacting U-Ship for the advertised refund on my listing and for the first-time user bonus.

At first, I had difficulty finding the mover at my budget, but I waited and waited until a right person came forward. It all went well in the end.

I got a quote from ShipSmart before bidding, but when it came time to call in the pickup everything changed. They faxed a contract that gave them the right to pick the items up and then tell me how much it would cost. If I didn't agree, they would bill me $25 a day storage. They said the original quote was just an estimate. I then found uship online and within 48 hours I had a shipper who could ...

Although the timeliness and quantity of bids was not quite as I had hoped, the transporter used was excellent at a reasonable price. uShip was easy to use and I will use the service in the future.

I needed someone to ship a coffee table for me from Ohio to Wisconsin. I did not want to UPS believing that it would come to me damaged. I listed my shipment on UShip and within in couple days, Dave had placed a bid on my shipment. He picked up my table and brought it to me in new condition. Dave communicated with me during the entire shipping process, was very friendly, and professional. What a g ...

I saw patio furniture at TJ Maxx while on a business trip in High Point NC. TJ Maxx does not ship, and more than thaT, they would not even box up the furniture. I looked into UPS...and the boxing/shipping charges were more than the furniture itself. So, I listed my shipment on Uship.com Mark placed a bid, while at a rest stop, picked up my furniture at TJ Maxx that night, put in the bac ...

My recently lost her mother to sudden illness and wanted to retain a piece of furniture as a keepsake. The value in was in memories not dollars, and with the help of uship we were able to get it from CO. to CA. thanks again

I had ordered a living room set to be delivered from Florida to New Jersey. Unfortunately, my husband and I were scheduled to be on vacation on the day the delivery was to take place. Although I was reluctant, my adult sons were home and I OK'd the delivery. My sons called me after the furniture was delivered and informed me David was completely professional. The furniture was beautiful and in ...

We saved over $500 off regular shipping rates for our outdoor chairs. Our shipper was very careful packing our items, did delivery in timely manner.

I had a couple pieces of furniture and some other very random items (like large art) that would have cost a bundle to ship with a usual carrier. With Uship, I found someone with extra space in their truck, and I was able to ship it all for much less. Thanks!

Shipped several pieces of furniture for a small residential move from Texas to New York. Price was very reasonable, and my property was handled appropriately by a legitimate moving company. uShip is great to use if you do the research on the moving companies that bid on your shipment.

This company maybe small but they deliver big & I owe this discovery to Uship! I needed to ship a china cabinet & secretary desk across state. These delicate items have been in my family for over 30 years & were being sent to my sister to remain in the family. My mom & I really needed the company we used to be dependable & inexpensive. I began pricing companies & came across Uship. What a great co ...

Howard Martin and Bishopville movers were very professional, very careful and assisted in getting the pieces into my house and assembled in place. They were very pleasant to deal with.

I looked for days for an economical way to ship my mattress to GA from FL...uhaul too expensive, penske, too expensive...thanks to uship I got a great deal and fast too! Don't hesitate using this site.

I had bid on item from ebay and won not realizing it was located out of state. I used Uship through ebay and received several bids. GlenandCindy replied fast and gave a fair price. I would definitely recommend them.

Eastman Transport did a great job. The living room furniture arrived on time and in excellent condition. We had no problems or issues. Thanks Dave.

My move of this one item was great. The provider was a professional during the move. Using uShip was easy and very helpful. We will you again in the future.

this was a last minute urgent move....thomas had our things delivered a day earlier than we expected! we had double our estimated amount to be moved and on top of that to a 16th floor condo. he treated us failrly and had eveything up to the 16th floor quickly. great job, would use again in a heartbeat. Thanks Thomas you were great!!!

Terry took the bid to ship an antique roll top desk from Minnesota to Pennsylvania. Got a call and coordinated details. Terry did as he said with regards to pick up an delivery times. He communicated frequently and was accommodating with regards to placement of the shipment in my garage.

My spare dresser was just perfect for my sister's new nursery. The problem was getting it from the Chicago suburbs to Los Angeles. I put the word out amongst my friends that I was in need of a shipper. Did anyone have any experience with shipping a single piece of furniture? They all told me that unless my dresser was very valuable it was doubtful that the cost would make it worthwhile. ...

I needed to ship an antique corner cupboard from my mother-in-law in the Washington DC area to my house in Kentucky. Most moving companies will not handle a single item, or else they will charge an arm and two legs. With uShip, I was able to find the other companies that are able to consolidate multiple small shipments and thus spread their cost and reduce their price. In fact, one of them ke ...

service worked well. i remain a bit uncertain as to the final fee charged me however. was the deposit supposed to be refundable of was that the u-ship fee charge to me? i thought that the total fee was to be $500 but i was charged in aggregate, approx. $580. can you explain? pcb

Wade contacted the pick up person 24 hrs ahead of time picked up as promised. He contacted me about delivery and delivered as promised. He is great to deal with, friendly and helpful. I would definetly use his services again. ken

I shipped 5 pieces of furniture from chairs, buffet and table to my niece for her home. They were all old family pieces. The shipper arrived on time as scheduled and took great care in covering the pieces. He was taking them from Tampa to Denver. They arrived as scheduled to my niece's home and she found him very pleasant and very helpful. I will definitely use him again and use uship.

A member of my family was moving and did not want their bed anymore and it was in excellent condition. Not wanting to pass up a good opportunity, I decided to look out in internet world to see what was a available. Because it was only a mattress and box spring, I did not need a large vehicle and to rent one was too expensive and so I came upon this website. Wasn't sure about it, but it was perfe ...

I needed to ship an Armoire to my mother in Tulsa from New Orleans. She just bought a new house and I'm remodeling mine after Katrina and didn't need the piece of furniture. So I didn't want to spend more than the piece was more and wanted to get it there in good condition. Earl wrote me and said he was headed in the New Orleans way and could do the job for $400. My schedule was flexible since ...

Tony was fantastic to work with, he drove through Hurricane Fay to bring me a shipment. His wife, Becky kept in contact with me as to their progress through the storm. And at the end of the day my new tv and armoire were sitting in my living room! I would highly recommend Creative Moving! -Rebeccca

My wife has wanted her childhood furniture for our children for more than 20 years. Her father misplaced it until just recently. Now that we're 1200 mile apart the care and cost of getting her furniture was excessive, much more than either the material value or sentimental value. Oasis transporation solve this dilemma for me. The UShip process was easy, care was taken to protect the furniture and ...

ACCEPTED BID VERY FAST. THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND GREAT COMMUNICATORS. THEY EVEN HELPED ME CARRY A COUCH DOWNSTAIRS, [THE FIRST SHIPPER DECLINED TO HELP AND WALKED OUT]. THEY WERE PUNCTUAL AND FRIENDLY. MY BUYERS WERE EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH THEIR SERVICE.

We needed to have 2 recliners shipped from California to Dallas. These had belonged to my husband's parents who were recently deceased. Needless to say, we were very concerned about the care, and timing in shipping. Todd was so courteous and professional. The pickup and delivery was right on time, he wrapped the chairs so there was no damage at all, and overall it was a very pleasing experienc ...

I really wanted to give my baby crib and changing table to my sister but couldn't figure out how to get it from Wisconsin to Massachusetts. I had checked with all major moving companies, freight companies, and even UPS. I ran across uShip on a web search and thought it wouldn't hurt to try. I found a provider who was able to make the delivery for a reasonable cost. I was thrilled with the expe ...

I started not to share my story, but then I said, why not. I'm almost ashamed to say that the Bob Timberlake Bed I had shipped I've wanted for 17 years -- no joke, literally 17 years. Seventeen years ago it wasn't quite as expensive, but it now retails for over $3,300. I saw it on ebay for $499 in Ohio, for local pickup only. I'm in Georgia. I talked with the seller and he was willng to work ...

excellent experience. i used a shipper that had many positive transactions in their history and i was not disappointed. i will be using uShip more often. thanks.

As a student, I needed my bed shipped cheaply. Using flexible shipping dates, I was able to find a provider for hundreds less than other LTL and freights were offering. Within weeks from my initial uShip account setup, my shipment arrived without a problem 2,000 miles away. I would absolutely use uShip again!

My husband and I bought new leather furniture for our family room. I wanted my sister to have our old leather furniture (which was hardly used).I was worried that it would not be worth the cost of shipping it to her but decided to get an idea of how much it would cost to ship. I googled "how to ship a sofa" and was directed to UShip. Not only was it cost effective, the shipment from pickup to d ...

I have not received my delivery, but I am certain that things will run smoothly. The gentleman was helpful and patient when dealing with me via the UShip site.

We are not regular users of this service. My daughter moved into her first apartment -- in Manhattan. She wanted her childhood bunk bed moved there from Atlanta. This is absolutely the best way to ship anything too large to mail and too far to drive. We got bids from quite a few people/companies and found one reasonably priced that was willing to pick up and deliver the item within out limited t ...

Legal did a great job moving me from Virgina to Florida. They called to see if they could pick up a day early--Sunday evening, which freed me up on Monday to work. They packed my furniture up. They delivered it on Tuesday morning to Florida in fine shape. I would definitely use them again and recommend them for East Coast moving, which I believe they do exclusively.

I purchased fixtures for my optical shop that were in Oregon, I am in Iowa. After getting quotes for shipping the large, bulky, and heavy items I was ready to give up. I placed the ad on the uShip site as my last hope. Sure enough, I got a bid. Not only a bid, a very reasonable bid. I was able to save over $6,000. Mike picked up the shipment that evening and had it ready to deliver ahead of ...
