1 bedroom apartment

Needed my stuff shippded from Ohio to Florida but I didn't want to spend a couple of thousands of dollars to have it done. I came across this website and I was extremely releaved. I was able to find a mover to do it for an extremely reeasonable price. The mover was an A-class person and my expecatiations were met far beyond the call of duty.

Great experience shipping my belongings and my pet!

Steve is awesome! Great with pets! He handled everything with great care, from my belongings to my puppy. Excellent communication! He kept in touch with me the entire time from start to finish. He was also VERY flexible and it was definitely a pleasure working with him. I've never felt so secure in shipping my belongings, and I would definitely use this service again. Thanks Uship!

Great...Great

I am really hapy about uship to enable me to find the local moving guys at reasonable price. I have recommended u-ship to my colleague and he was able to find a right guys for moving his home. Regards, rrbhupathi

Perfect experience/Competitive price.

When do you ever get both?! This company is fabulous. They kept in regular touch with me all alone the way by phone and email. I asked to check out their insurance details. They were very forthcoming, and had the wide breadth of coverage they claimed to have. They were very personable, professional, and accommodating to my schedule. It was a pleasure to have such easy business dealings. Hig ...

I Need to Get Out of Here!

My daughter left California in January, leaving most of her belongings in storage there. She settled in Central Georgia, found a job, an apartment, and got lined up for school. We were contacted by Metropolitan Moving on UShip. A deal was struck. It was effortless. There was a slight delay, because of truck problems, but they were more than happy to set up a new date. My daughter and I were ...

I'm too tired from moving, I'll tell you next week! Everything worked out great and your website saved me a bundle of money and hassle. THANKS

Move from North Carolina to Brooklyn

Very good experience shipping the contents of my daughter's college room from NC to her new apartment in Brooklyn NY.

great experience!

Alagi was awesome and uship saved the day! I never could have afforded standard shipping of my stuff cross country. Thank goodness I found this auction service. :-)!

MOVING TO CLEVELAND ,TN.

UNFORTUNATELY, MOTHER HAS PASSED AWAY BEFORE WE COULD MOVE. EVERYTHING WAS EXCELLENT AND WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.

panic eventually became satisfaction

i made a booking on uship to move halfway across the country, which was canceled by the service provider at the last minute after i'd already made plane ticket reservations and other arrangements. i was very upset and unhappy. but then i re-listed and managed to find another service provider who did a great job (albeit for more money). so what could have been a disaster turned out okay, and i w ...

Excellent job moving household items and a truck

Conscientious, professional, personable, and fantastic are words that I would use to describe SAG Industries when they moved my son’s household items and truck from California to college at K-State. I could not have been more please with how meticulous they were with all the furniture and household items, and how incredibly careful and diligent they were in loading the truck and making sure all it ...

failure to communicate

I am trying to reach my provider to confirm Aug 26 move date but have not had telephone calls or email returned.

Saves Money,Eliminates Stress, Gives you a week back and lets you sleep!

Ever planned a move across the country? Where do you start? Typically you plan to rent a truck for $1,500, then pay for fuel at an average of $3.90 a gallon. Now factor in your time driving an unfamiliar huge vehicle on 70mph freeways, in all kinds of weather, stopping incessantly to fuel up and living on coffee, sugar and energy drinks. Factor the cost of hotel rooms, junk food at convenience sto ...

Wonderful service!

Highly recommended. Very punctual. Very professional. Very careful. Very reliable. A real pleasure to work with!

Treaures of 84 Year olds join them in Florida

My 84 year old parents moved to Orlando in February with basically tha few suitcases. They had an assortment of stuff left in Ohio that they wanted moved to Orlando. We shopped movers and were given quotes ranging from $1100 to $2900. Living on Social Security does not leave them much money to move things of mostly sentimental value. Through uShip we were able to find a small Ohio mover that ha ...

Excellent Service.

We were very happy with our move and would highly, highly recommend Dave to anyone. He was there on time to load our things, shipped them 600 miles, and delivered them on time.Excellent Communication!Thanks Dave well done.+++AAA.

maybe some better mechanisms

YOU NEED TO HAVE BETTER SCREENING OF THE KINDS OF "MOVERS" YOU ALLOW BIDS FROM. THERE IS SOME CRIMINAL ACTIVITY GOING ON HERE, BELIEVE ME. I GOT LUCKY IN FINDING A GOOD SERVICE PROVIDER AFTER DEALING WITH A BUNCH OF MONSTERS.

Easiest part of my divorce!

I kept putting off hiring a mover because I couldn't find a moving company that would give me a realistic quote on shipping my goods from WA to AK. I was leaving my husband and didn't have $3700 to spend on shipping a few Rubbermaid totes and a couple boxes (less than 1500 lbs). I had all but given up when I found UShip (after ridiculous amounts of searching) and the rest was insanely easy. Dan ...

Great shipping experience

Drexel showed up on time and help my wife load her belongings and was very helpful and communicative the whole time. I was very impressed with the service.

New York to Texas Move - Awesome Experience

I was shipping items from my home in New York to my new home in Austin, Texas - I had several antiques and fragile pieces and Juan did an excellent job packing/wrapping and making certain that they arrived in perfect condition. Juan was in constant communication with me on his anticipated arrival which I greatly appreciated since I too travel for my job. He was flexible and worked around my sche ...

Done with UHaul!

I moved out to California in May 08 for a job. Turns out i hate California and miss Montana like crazy. I also missed my boyfriend back in Montana a lot. I wanted to move back to Montana as soon as possible. My job that was supposed to make me a bunch of money stopped producing which limited my financial abilities to move back. My boyfriend and I were trying to figure out how we'd get me moved ...

Great experience with my 1 br move

I had my queen sized mattresses, frame, head board, foot board and 5 boxes moved from Fl to NC. The website was very straight-forward and I began receiving bids immediately. All of the offers were much less than any other website. My service provider was excellent. The items got to me when he said they would and they were very professional and friendly. I will definitely ship with uShip again! Tha ...

Great experience moving my 1 br. apt to two different locations

They were great!! Moved my stuff to both my storage unit and my new house! Would definitely recommend!

Wonderful, Stress-Free Move.

I was hesitant at first to use uship, but after communicating with a few bidders, I appreciated the ease at which I was able to reach such a huge amount of shippers. I appreciated the confidentiality of my contact information, and the ease of payment. I found a wonderful shipper who I would use again in an instant. My move was stress free and SUCH a pleasure. Thank you so much!

Wonderful first time!

Having to move on a budget and being in a time crunch, I came across uShip and posted a listing in hope of shipping my stuff without being charged an outrageous amounts. In no time I was contacted with a shippering provider willing to pickup and deliver my items for the price I was able to pay. Everyhing went smoothly and arrived on time! You have to appreciate such great service!

Shipping stuff for my 1 bedroom apartment

I was shipping items for my 1 bedroom apartment in Pittsburgh. I've never used uShip before and I saved about $700.00. My service provider was punctual and very professional. I highly recommend using uShip.

Moving Home

Four years ago I moved to the east. During this move I used a service that I packed my belongings on a truck and the company drove them cross-country. Moving home, a friend recommended trying uship.com. I was hesitant due to the nontraditional form of finding a moving company. I choose Legal Transporation as my provider. The service was incredible and my belongings arrived in better condition ...

Great website, very helpful

We needed an inexpensive way to make a move from Florida to New Jersey. I posted an estimated shipment list just to see what type of responses I got. Although I did not take any of the first offers because it was to early and my listing was not completely accurate, I did determine that UShip was the way to go. I then created a more accurate listing and began looking through the responses. As w ...

Great move Chicago to Austin!

I started with a poor experience with a mover on UShip, and lost faith in movers. But I tried again and found a gem! I cannot tell you enough how appreciative I am of this service and of the 2nd mover (Seth with J&S Moving Company based out of St. Louis area) that I found on it. I am knee deep in a new job, life, place, and planning a wedding, and this experience put me at ease at a very stress ...

Just Boxes

I was having a hard time finding affordable cost just to move boxes from a storage unit to another state. My mover was in my affordable price range, and he was personable. This is a rare combination! I am glad to have found the web site to find what I needed.

Myers Moving

Great Services. Very reliable and a joy to work with.

Excellent experience shipping our apartment furniture and belongings across country

Our Daughter had previously used uShip, had a very positive experience and recommended them to us. We used them and were delighted! Uship connected us with a shipper who offered just the service and schedule that we were looking for at a reasonable price. The shipper performed superbly...completed the shipment Washington DC to Denver in just 3 days! Movers were professional and courteous and w ...

Kinge moving

THere awesomely wonderful people that are kind and understanding

shipping stored furniture and household goods

First time using a shipping company, have always moved "myself" in the past, local and across country, Was going to rent a truck and move myself again but after reviewing bids and logistics and all things considered I decided to use a moving company, I asked for several bids and found uship and found a very reasonable bid with the shipper doing extra work loading and unloading for same price as a ...

Small move from Chicago to Texas

I had to move quickly from Chicago to Texas with a small budget and I couldn't believe uShip and how quick and easy it was to get my things home. My father had suggested the site as an option to ship my belongings and he was right. It was going to cost me nearly $2000 if I rented a uHaul and hitched my car! This was my first time using uShip and at first I was weary about using this servi ...

moving within 3 days

I had hired a moving company and received a pone call from them letting me know that they under bid my job and they wanted to almost double the price that was quoted. I found UShip by an internet search engine. I must say I found another moving even lesser expensive that I originally hired. I will UShip again-it really helped when I really needed help.

Easiest move imanginable

I needed to move from my college in CT to my home in IL, and Juan not only met my price needs, but was also willing to take my difficult time schedule into account. I plan on using him again in the future, and couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.

1 WOMENS STUFF

THIS WASN'T MY 1ST MOVE, BUT I NOW KNOW THAT BEING A MOVE ESTIMATER IS NOT IN MY FUTHER. BEFORE SEAN & JOSH CAME I KNEW I HAD UNDERESTIMATED THE AMOUNT I HAD, BUT I DID NOT REALIZE THAT I HAD TRIPLE THE AMOUNT I HAD THOUGHT. THEY WERE REALLY GREAT ABOUT IT & MADE ACCOMEDATIONS TO TAKE ALL OF MY THINGS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD THAT IF ANYONE EVERY NEEDS A PET TRANSPORTED, THESE ARE THE GUYS TO CAL ...

great experience shipping my 1-bedroom furniture

I was shipping a king-size bed, a medium chest, a baby crib, a small office refrigrator, and 2 suitcases. I was moving from California to Texas. I had a very excellent experience using the uShip site because all the moving companies I had contacted were giving me a really high and unreasonable rate. I was tight on budget and could not afford those moving rates. With uShip it was very convenient to ...

GREAT!!

I moved to Chicago for a job. I saved so much using uship and my mover. My mover was great. Took care of every single piece of furniture and box! I will definitely use this again!

Household goods

The recent death of my mother required the shipment of some of the belongings of her very modest one bedroom apartment. I had a choice of driving from Irving, Texas to Fontana, California or look for an alternate way to accomplish the transfer. Somehow the uShip site appeared when searching the internet for shipping services. Of course it is now in my favorite sites! As I read the contents ...

great experience moving my mom

The two crew were from Lithuania, very pleasant and entertaining!. They were very creative about packing some furniture that probably wasn't worth sending. I enjoyed chatting with them and kept them cool with water while they sweated. They were also the ones that unloaded at the other end. It was a very nice experience, and a great price. Thanks to Rozita too at the office!

little bit interesting

one interesting note was how i learned about Uship. I was planning a move to austin tx and had posted my resume on dice.com. I was looking for a web application development position as a new job. One recruiter contacted me with a job opportunity with "UShip.com"! The recruiter explained that my salary requirements were not in the scope for this position. I told her that I would consider anywa ...

My son moved from Detroit to Atlanta

My son got a job in Atlanta. He wanted the recliners that were in my living room, two dressers his grandmother gave him, a full size bed from his brother and I also wanted him to have most of his stuff out of my house. He closed on his home on a Tuesday. My husband decided he was going to rent a u-haul. The u-haul was $900 plus gas and travel time. I went online to see if there was a way t ...

uShip Service is Great!

uShip service is very good, very organized and just a great idea. Thank you for helping everyone find a good place to go to ship your stuff without wondering if you're going to get taken for a ride. Good job!!
