I had to ship my large German Shepard from Califorina to his new home in Chicago. The plane transport and large cart was going to be very expensive. I decided to look online and see if there was any other alternative to shipping via the airlines. Up popped Uship, I put in my request, a transport company put in a bid and the rest is history. I am very satisfied with the results and would recommend Uship as an alternative to all your shipping needs.
