As a career Soldier, my family and I have been afforded ample opportunities for moving (and storing) our vehicles and household goods through the years. However, when I found myself apart from my family this past year at Fort hood, TX preparing to go to Afghanistan, I realized that I had a dilemna! Fortunately, uShip provided a means AND peace of mind as I was able to coordinate for the shipment of my vintage Bronco from 7000+ miles away. uShip allowed me to select the service provider that I felt comfortable with (and the extensive positive feedback DID contribute to my decision) and surprisingly I was able to select a service provider who met my price AND only lived approximately nine miles from my home in SC! I never would have been able to find a local shipper for a long-haul movement at a competitive price without uShip. Great job, great service, and kudos to Jerry Davenport, service provider extraorinaire! My wife was very happy to see my truck again - returned from 14 months in TX and unscathed - and I was completely comfortable working with Jerry from a few thousand miles away, talking to him each day to monitor the movement of my truck. And the clincher? My wife was very comfortable with accepting delivery of the truck at our home from a gentleman that she had never met and had only talked to on the phone a few times! Thank-you Jerry for the awesome job - I will recommend you and uShip to all of our family and friends!! Sincerely, Skip Masterson, FOB Fenty, Afghanistan.
