JOhn Deere 350 dozer

The party at the other end was remote from the shipping location and not extremely motivated. The shipping date shifted several times and when we got close, a construction project required moving the loading point. The Shipping provider was patient, flexible, and got the job done at the bid price.

Phenomenal Forum

This website is an ingenious idea to connect freight haulers with customers across the board! Working for a corporation, I needed a tractor shipped to another location, however, by the time the news had trickled down to me, the tractor needed to be there yesterday! With UShip, I beat the best estimated shipping time, against four other mainstream freight companies, and saved over $800 using UShip, ...

Shipment of tractors

This was the first time I used uShip and it was a very smooth transaction and shipment went very well. I will use again.

What a site

uShip site has everything possible. Outstanding documentation, easy to navigate, the shipping price estimator is awesome and the amount of bids received is remarkable. I will not hesitate every again to ship stuff cross-country. Very pleasurable experience.

Great job shipping a difficult and heavy load

I had a John Deere Tractor with Loader and backhoe moved from Texas to Montana. Backhoe didn't function so made for a hard time loading and unloading. Despite Mechanical problems load was delivered Safe and timely.

Model A Tractor

First time doing business on uship and was very pleased with the service. My item was delivered in a timely manner with professional service. Thanks.

Good experience shipping tractor and other items

My items were odd - a tractor, bush hog, and very large play house. Listing was simple and the bids started coming in. I could communicate back and forth with bidders to determine which would fit my needs the best.

shipper worked through problems to ship my load

My shipper, worldwidejoe, was hired to ship a lawnmower for me on his return trip from another shipping job. The day before he was to pick up the machine, he called to tell me somehow the wiring to his trailer had caught on fire and started his truck burning. As he tried to put the fire out on the side of the interstate, a police officer pulled up and demanded he stop trying to deal with the fire ...

First time shipping

I was very aprehensive about this type of set up, but it went very well. The whole process was very smooth. The job was prefessionally and at a competitive price. Thanks!

...shipping of my small tractor...

...was very interesting experience. I was initially put off by regular shippers who were only in it for the money and very uncooperative when I tried to be as accommodating as possible. I was tired of dealing with the commercial outfit and went to UShip, which connected me with AnsonFarmTransport and they were absolutely great to work with. And, they saved me substantial money, at least a third ...

Bobcat T250

I shopped online looking for a good Bobcat T250 that someone really wanted to sale at a good price. One in Herrington DE stood out from all the rest, so I contacted the buyer and bought it. I really did not want to haul a trailer from Mississippi to DE so I took the suggestion of the seller and whent to the UShip website and set my price. When I awoke the next morning I had a very reasonable of ...

trucking of tractor

Thanks to uship I got a great rate on trucking a small tractor 1450 miles. It is a great service as it appears that many companies read it's contacts for shipments. Many companies bid on my tractor. Thank you uship. Ron Baruth

Great Experience

My move required to go from the extreme Northwest corner of the country to the Southeast part of the country; over 3000 miles. The shipping company I used, "Auto Mated Transporters" was fantastic. They picked up when they said they would and delivered right on time keeping me informed all the way. The customer service was second to none, they really made me feel comfortable about my shipment. I h ...

Great experience shipping my tractor

This was my first time to use USHIP. It was definitely a trouble-free experience. If all of the "haulers" are like David, I will definitely use the service again! Good luck to you! Jim McNeill, San Antonio, TX

Excellent Service Shipping Skid Steer

I purchased a Skid Steer loader on Ebay the loader was located in Bakersfield CA. I live in North Central NE. I contacted a Freight Co that delivers in our area to see if they could haul it. They put me in touch with the CA office they said no problem they sent a truck out that day but they sent a cube van with a lift gate to load a skid steer loader. Needless to say it did not work. I accepted a ...

Blue knight

This guy deserves an A plus. He communicated with me at all times and I never worried about the delivery at any point.

excellent service by shipping provider

I contracted with Matt Jorstad to move my backhoe. He was reasonable, on time and kept in constant contact with me before, during and after the transport and made my delivery on time and in perfect condition. I felt at ease with his professionalism. His equipment was in beautiful new conditon. You won't be sorry if you use his service. I couldn't have moved it more reasonably myself. I will be us ...

Moving a tractor

With the price of gas what it is today it was very important for me to get the tractor as close to my location as possible. Del was able to get it to my driveway. Thanks Lou

Honda Tractor

Made my first purchase on eBay. Purchased a Honda Tractor Mower in PA and I live in GA. Seller suggested uShip and I used them. Cost effective and professional. Will use the next time for sure.

Tractor with loader and backhoe

I purchased a tractor on an ebay auction. The tractor was located around 600 miles away. I used uship to check prices on having the tractor that has a loader and backhoe on it delivered. I recieved some bids and accepted one that had a good price and great feedback. The deal was made and the shipping crew went to get the tractor. While trying to load the tractor, the tractor was having problem ...

What a great concept!

Going directly to the big shipping companies was turning out to be a very expensive ordeal. I searched on the internet and contacted many freight companies, forwarders, even the rail road. They all wanted an extreme amount of money to ship my tractor. I was about to give up and drive my own truck and trailer from Texas to Colorado and back when I discovered uShip, and boy am I glad I did. I ...

Nice Job

Transporter did a nice job of delivering my truck within the time frame specified and kept me informed of the status of the shipment from pick up point to the delivery point.

2 Tractors

We needed to ship 2 large tractors from Oklahoma to Illnois. JBTruckin handled the shipment. JB was perfect. He was professional and made a point to communicate with us. He showed up on time and did the shipment in the time he said. No damage, no whining--he just did the job and did it well. The price was great for the service--we saved about $1200 from a quote from a local carrier. I w ...

Tractor Shipment

I bought a tractor in Columbia, SC and needed it shipped to Clifton Forge, VA. I placed an add and recieved two bids. I chose the higher of the two bids based on profile and feedback. I was not sorry, Larry did an amazing job at delivering my tractor. He kept me informed the entire way and was right on time. The shipment was well secured and gave me a feeling that there are still good shipper ...

Awesome

I was fortunate enough to be given my Grandfathers 1944 John Deere B tractor to use since I am the oldest grandson. I was afraid shipping costs would not make it possible to get the tractor to me (900 miles). I was afraid to get my hopes up on the idea of this tractor making to my home. When the bids starting coming in I was surprised they were in my budget. Now that it's here, I am sending pictur ...

Hesitant at first

This was my first experience using an online booking for shipping. I was a little reluctant given all the scamming stories about using the internet for what we accept as traditionally a local transaction (eg shipping equipment). However, I experienced the exact opposite. My shipper was down to earth and a guy you'd hang out with. Uship is an excellent way for individuals to protect themselve ...

No stress felt at all

No stress involed or felt when I had tractor delivered. I have had about 8 items thru uship with never a problem. They are the only carriers I use or ever will use.!!! Keep up the quality people you use and you will be no.1 in the U.S.A. SE ya

Entirely an Excellent Experience

Couldn't have been better...More than expected and if there were 10 stars we'd rate all 10...5 is not enough.

Shipped John Deere model A

I had a John Deere model A to ship. I had called a number of well-known trucking companies to ship my tractor. All wanted a lot of money. So, I started searching the Internet. I found U-Ship. I needed to ship this old tractor from my uncle's farm to my house becasue I was going to restore it. It was tough for me to get the time off from work to do this myself, so I needed somebody to do it f ...

Great Service!

This is the first time I used USHIP. I shipped a large lawn tractor with an extra deck that I had stored in another city. The web site was informative and very easy to follow. The provider did an excellent job and my shipmnent arrived on time with no problems. Highly recommended!

Great experience, no worry

For some reason my email response didn't go throurgh, David put great effort in seeing that this haul happened and went well. David delivered early and tractor was in great shape.

Great experience shipping my tractor.

I was shipping a tractor out of Minnisota ... never done anything like this before for such a big ticket item ... normally the odd small item through ebay. Anyways, talked to the nice folks that had the tractor for a number of years.. I got a good feeling about them and the the tractor so I purchased it sight unseen. I put the tractor on uship ... I suggested that it be below a certain price and J ...

Shipping a tractor on implements

My in laws are moving from Michigan to Kentucky and my Father in Law has his dad's 1948 John Deere M farm tractor and implements. We were puzzled as to how we were economically going to get it there when one of my tractor blogs recommended uship.com. Posted the ad and in very short order had three bids. Actually my Mother in Law made all the arrangements and all went well. The tractor left Mic ...

Tractor shipping

I needed two tractors shipped from Lousianna to Texas. Put in the descriptions and destinations and the next day I had 4 bids. I picked a lower one with good feedback and had no issues. Thanks USHIP. I will definitely use your service again when needed.

Tractor hauled in short order

Bought a tractor for my father, which turned out to be heavier than I could haul on my own equipment. Mike was able to help out quickly with the right equipment. When I couldn't get the thing started, he did both at pickup and delivery. He was able to haul the tractor in less than a week from when I started looking, and made it to a hard-to-find address on time.

Riding mower

Any other method of shipment would have been way to expensive. Uship saved me a ton of money and time!

Lawnmower from Georgia to Mississippi

I transport for a living but an emergency came up and did not allow me to make this trip. Larry bid on my shipment and he answered all my questions to my satisfaction. I was a little skeptical because Larry had 0 feedback but then I remembered when I started. If nobody would have given me a chance, I would never have made it in this business, so I gave Larry the job. He is true to his word and pic ...

Coordinating from London

I am currently living in London and through Uship managed the bid process and selection over the internet to move a tractor from Tennessee to Florida. The seller and my son coordinated the shipment, both of whom had to travel to both the starting and ending points. All worked well and the shipper was outstanding. UShip is a great idea and so simple to use. The price was right, had a number of ...

Shipping My Tractor

I had planned to drive and pick up my tractor with my truck and trailer but a surgery kept me from making the trip. I called several online mover, put in to receive quotes, and then found uShip. The lowest bid I received outside of uShip was $1400 more and two weeks later. I hadn't used uShip before but decided to try it. I accepted the bid from Carson Moving and Transport and couldn't have been h ...

Excellent vehicle transport experience

Grant from Baker Logistics was great to work with as he stayed in full communication throughout the entire process and was very professional. As a nationwide shipper, I would highly recommend his services as Baker Logisitics stands apart from the rest. They are truly top notch and we appreciate all their hard work!

Mower Deck

I bought a mower deck off ebay and had it shipped with no problems. I recommend shipper.
