My very large green iguana, "Shrek", had a new home waiting for him in Anthony, NM. Too far for me to drive him and too much red tape with the airlines to fly him, I posted an ad on U-ship. My friend uses U-ship to transport horses, and the website showed that members can accommodate all types of cargo, so I posted an ad. Within 24 hours I had received 3 inquiries to bid, and one shipper stood out as having just the right type of vehicle and small animal experience I was seeking. We corresponded easily back and forth a few times, and by the time she placed a formal bid, I was very comfortable accepting them as Shrek's shipper. They picked up from me precisely on time and headed out into the night with my irritated boy in the back. They were conscientious of his temperature requirements, asked about feeding and such, and immediately contacted his new owner to let them know they were on the way. Except for a few hours' rest, they drove straight to the new home even though originally the plan was to meet in a large city 30 miles away. The extra distance, time and concern was such a nice perk. He wasn't just cargo to them, he was our pet (albeit not a very happy one!) and they knew that both parties were anxiously awaiting the completion of his transfer. Shrek made it through just fine, and I couldn't be happier with my U-ship experience. I am starting an animal welfare site soon, and the services of U-ship as an transport alternative to air travel, will be listed in our information. Thanks for having shipper profiles and client reviews, which is especially helpful in deciding who you want to have handle your goods. Great job U-ship, I will certainly use you again! KC in LV
