Easiest Move Ever!!!!

We have moved many times but never this far. I was on a budget and the moving companies I called were charging way too much. I found the uship website by accident and thought well it doesn't hurt to try it. Almost immediately, I received several very good and much cheaper bids on moving the boxes I had from Tennessee to Washington. I almost thought this is too good to be true, but I gave it a ...

Antique Chairs from Florida to Ohio

We decided to donate six antique dining chairs to a local museum in Ohio (by coincidence only a few miles from where they were hand carved and built in the 1800's). Upon surfing the internet we discovered Uship and proceeded to investigate the website. It was user-friendly and we were able to easily list our chairs. We received a few offers and had some initial time-frame problems. They were f ...

shipping china cabinet

By the time this shipment was finally set up, I was quite nervous about using USHIP. I had been working on this for almost a month and was not having much luck with other bidders....offers seemed to disappear just before I was ready to accept. Howard, on the other hand, was very accommodating and delivered my cabiet in perfect condition. He showed up a little later than promised but I said I wa ...

Great experience moving from Ohio to Denver

Couch moved from Phx to Colo Spgs

Sherry and Jason w/Patriot Express were the best. They made it so easy and painless. My experience with them made me feel confident in their ability to move my couch safely and in a timely manner. It was all around successful and I appreciate them so much. I plan to use them again in 9 months to move to Denver. Loved them. Kristen

chair and picture

The legs were taken off the chaise and the men spent an hour putting them back on. Luckly we had an extra piece left inside of the backing and when they called we were able to explain how to fix them and they could have left but they very patiently stayed and fixed all the legs.

Positive first experience with UShip

Antique Bedroom set was left to me when my beloved Aunt passed away in Texas. The set had been in the family for almost 100 yrs . It was of priceless value to me but the logistics of getting it back to New England was a financial obsticle. UShip was recommended so I gave it a try. When the right price came up, I accepted. The Furniture arrived and I'm happy to have it in my home. The shipper ...

Excellent Care Taken of Antique Appliance

I searched over four years for a THOR-brand combination dishwasher/clotheswasher unit that Lustron Homes (the worlds most recognized prefabricated house) originally equipped its classic all-steel house with when manufactured in the late 1940s in Columbus, Ohio. The Whitehall Historical Society is reconstructing a Lustron within a mile of the former Lustron factory near Port Columbus International ...

Great savings

UShip saved me over $1000.00!! Bill shipped my diningroom table, hutch & chairs for 1/3 of the cost of everyone else. It arrived ahead of schedule and in perfect condition. There was only one glitch - the truck Bill came with at first was too small but he came the very next day with a bigger truck. Bill was great to work with and we expect to have more business for him in the future!

Trasnporting a bed to WISCONSIN

This transporter gave me a good deal to transport a queen size bed to Wisconsin. He pleasantly communicated and he was very supportive. Unfortunately, he did not transport the bed because i had already accepted a bid from another bidder from Uship and thus i cannot rate him on that. Nevertheless, was very understanding after learning i was already commited with a fellow Uship transporter.

great experience shipping items to tennessee

I accepted a bid from uship and was very pleased with the entire process. I was impressed with the punctuality and professionalism with Joe. I will use this company for all my moving needs. Thanks again Teri Harris

Piano

The item was very well taken care of - protected during the trip and arrived without a single problem. There were plenty of people to assist with the load and unload - I didn't have to do a thing!

Great experience shipping my belongings from storage to my new home

All my belongings had been in storage for a year. I finally got settled in North Central Florida from South Florida. It took some time to save the money to get my things but after checking how much it cost to have it all shipped to me I was at my wits end.When I found UShip I found my answer when this Shipper bid at a price I could handle. Everything went as planned. He was just so great. Took goo ...

Great Service!

Needed to find service to arrange for pickup and cross country delivery of table and chairs and uShip and Legal Transportation really came through. Great Service!

Very accomodating service

I am just graduating from college in Pennsylvania and needed to get a lot of belongings including a live music setup back to Texas. I was careless in reading the terms of my service provider, however, and didn't realize I needed to pay cash on pick-up. I was embarrassed and panicked because as a college student I didn't have immediate means to pick up money, but the service provider was very under ...

Great Movers!

Jerry and his team were fantastic. I was incredibly pleased. I have never used professional movers before because of the price. This moving company was worth every penny. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Furniture Shipping

I used USHIP to ship furniture that was given to me from Atlanta GA, to Washington DC. I had price ranging from 600 - 200 for this within 3 days. USHIP, is great at the time of the bid, the emailed and called, to let me know a new bid was placed. This is a great service, and I will definitely use it again. Thank USHIP

Valued family memorabilia

After the loss of my father and wondering how I would get those larger items I was not able to bring back on a plane, I was very fortunate to find UShip and the ease of working with this internet service. My service provider was very easy to work with as well. He was polite and efficient. This was my first experience in working with UShip and I would not hesitate to use this internet service a ...

Moving as family member when mental health is involved

My Dad has been diagnosed w alzheimers and so is very forgetful in what desisions were made in what was going where. Our movers were very patient and understanding in the whole reminding him of why things were or were not being pacted. I would recommend these gentleman for any one out there.

small load misc items

This mover was an excellent fit for my small load of personal items. Affordable and ahead of schedule. Friendly yet professional. Highly recommended.

Mover great, Uship leaves something to be desired.

The bid for this shipment was some seventy-odd dollars over what the shipper was actually charging, because Uship had to have a deposit "which would be returned because you are a first-time shipper." A week later, it is still not back in my account, and we very badly need it. What give, Uship? call me, or email me, but let me know why you are not making good on your promise!

Great experience shipping balance of household goods.

We were desperate when we discovered there was not enough room to load the balance of our household goods in the second of two moving trucks we rented for that purpose. Because of hired help and truck return schedules, we had to leave about ten percent of our beloved goods and some how promptly arrange for someone to load, deliver and unload the random remaining items. This seemed an impossible ...

Moving the drums

I Live in the Philippines and needed to move a drum set to my sisters house, well lets just say I was able to find a shipper and do everything from Home here.. Found a bunch of great people willing to help... Now I am working on getting them here and STILL LOOKING for MOVERS to the Philippines!!! Thanks for the GREAT SITE!!!!!JD

Shipping my wicker fruniture from NH to FL

I was not completly sure about using an internet cite to ship my wicker furniture from NH to FL but, I gave it a try. I was extremly surpised. This service was great. I sound like an info-mercial but it's true. The responds from the shippers bidding, to the ease of the whole trasnaction made this experience a quick and painless one. The provider tobin12 was very polite, respectful and honestly tre ...

My father's trains

When I was 10 years old, my father bought two American Flyer train sets for my sister and I (although I think he bought them for himself, too, since he liked to play with them as much as we did). We mounted the trains on a 4'X 8' plywood board. My father even made legs for it so we could play with it standing up. We made a whole little village on the board with the two sets of train tracks running ...

Shipping Boxes

Juan was really careful with our things and even took some of the most delicate with him in the cab of his truck. Otherwise he wasn't in a rush and being careless like some other movers might be but took his time and made sure that we told him what was fragile and what not.

A wonderful service

When I saw a small, coin-operated amusement ride I'd been looking for for 10 years on eBay, I didn't know what to do. It was 2,000 miles away from me, and the seller wanted pick-up only. I started looking into making the trip myself when a friend recommended uShip. The site was easy to figure out, and within 2 days I had several bids on my unusual item. It was a little bit scary to use a new s ...

Very good experience with a challenging move.

Thank you for your efforts in a difficult move.

My experience shipping my piano.

My service provider, or the guy who won the bid, was excellent. I was moving a heavy piano. His price was OK. His dolly looked inadequite at first, but proved to be just right. I was in a rush to find a mover and ran through the deposit part on Uship. I was very put out to find out that that deposit wasn't toward the payment for the service, rather that it was toward Uship. It was a $20 de ...

Great experience moving furniture for a party

I needed furniture moved from 3 rooms to a single room to clear the other rooms for a party. The move was done on time and with care.

Excellent compnay

Legal Transport was fantastic to work with. They showed up on time, were great to work with, delivered before the promised date, were in constant communication, worked hard, all for a great price. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Great experience shipping my daughter's goods

This mover went the extra mile in following up with me on my daughter's goods and their movement from SC to TX and made sure every step of the way it went smoothly. A great big thank you from this family.

uship is fabulous for small job!

I am selling my home and needed to move the washer and dryer. Moving companies have no interest in such a small job, so I was having no luck with the yellow pages. I found UShip online and was able to hook up with someone who could do the job at my price and right away!

Honest, Professional and Friendly

After being scammed by another company it was wonderful to find a company [anyship (8)] that could be honest and friendly, to deal with. It was a household move from california to texas. They were on time and brought me & my son all of our worldly goods that we'd been without for 45 days. The guys were very nice and did all the loading and unloading quickly. I will use anyship (8) the next time ...

Super experience!

Shipped dog and a house full of stuff from 1000 miles away. I moved a year ago to NY and my stuff was still in GA. Jeff from Getitfast gave me the best deal going anywhere and he went way above the call of duty to get my stuff and the dog here safely, even delaying the trip a day due to concerns for the health of the dog. He was very reassurring all the way around. I was very nervous about doing a ...
