I HAVE USED USHIP TWICE NOW WITH NO PROBLEMS, IT SAVES A LOT OF TIME AND A LOT OF PHONE CALLS. PRIOR TO FINDING USHIP I MADE ALL KINDS OF PHONE CALLS TO SHIPPING COMPANIES THAT WANTED THE BIKES CRATED & DRAINED,WELL WHEN YOU'RE BUYING FROM A PRIVATE SELLER,IT'S KIND OF HARD TO HAVE THEM CRATE THEM FOR YOU. USHIP IS FAST,EASY,AND BY FAR CHEAPER THAN SHIPPING COMPANIES.
