i used Uship to move my 7-month calf and goat, who are very dearly beloved pets, when we were moving across montana. i had looked into buying a trailer and renting a truck, as i owned neither. this would have cost nearly a thousand dollars all together. i advertised on U-ship on a whim to see what would come up. i connected with a provider who was heading right through where i needed to go, and they were pulling an empty trailer. the cost was probably a third of what i would have paid to do it myself, and the project was so much easier this way! the provider is a professional horse owner and i knew my animals were in good hands. they arrived safely and all was well. i was provided with a needed service and i contributed to covering the cost of the provider's already-planned road trip.
