I was a little weary about sending everything I owned half way across the country with someone I met through an online service. I tried some of the professional sites and companies and the LOWEST quote was 1200! I'm a broke student so that was absolutely out of the question! I found u-ship and within a few hours I had bids! In the end I chose a mover that moved my bed, tv, and quite a few large boxes from NY to GA for only 288!!!! I am very pleased with the entire experience and I would gladly use u ship again!
