I bought a 1933 Ford Vicky from a gentleman in Edmonds, WA to be shipped to Kansas City, KS and place a listing on uShip. Leroy answered with a bid within a couple of hours and I also received a number of other bids from other big companies during the day. His was one of the best bids and he was also an individual contractor, so I contacted him to see when he could pick up my car. He said that he could pick it up in four days and have it delivered to my front door in 4-5 days depending on the weather. I accepted his bid and we exchanged all the information needed for the move. No red tape as with the big companies, just a one on one personal transaction. All I had to do now was set back and wait for the delivery day. Leroy called me when he was on his way to pick up my car. He called again when he had the car loaded and was back on the road. I received e-mails from him along the way telling me of his progress and where he was. He called me the day before delivery to give me an idea as to when to expect him and again the morning of the delivery day to tell me an idea as to the time he would arrive at my house. We talked again around 3:00 in the afternoon and he told me he would be there at around 6:30 in the evening and to my surprise he pulled up in front of my house as he said he would at 6:32. Not to bad for a 1900 mile trip from the far away northwest to central part of the country. Leroy opened the trailer door and pulled "his car cover" off of my car and there it sat all shiny and clear, ready to go for cruise to the local Sonic. Leroy was very professional, informative and reasonable. I will be happy to use his services again. Many of my friends plan to use him in the future when they need to have their vehicles transported. "Thanks" Leroy for a job well done. Keep up the good work. Jerry
