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 love the concept of putting an ad out there and having shipping companies bid for your business. Within a few hours I received my first bid and in just three days I contracted a company to move my tractor for a quarter of the price that the others wanted. The “shipping price estimator” on this web site is a great tool. It gave me a good idea of what to set my target price at. I also thought the question/answer forum was a great way to communicate.
All in all a great experience and I’m very thankful for stumbling across their web site.
Thank you uShip.
