Guy showed up in an old Chevy dually gasser and 30 ft. beavertail. . Not the kind of thing I would want to start a 4000 mile trip in. U ship thing is kind of interesting. Never heard of it before.

You don't have to take the lowest bid (nor should you). We shipped a 250 excavator and and a D6 dozer from a Richie Action in Florida to Kansas using UShip. It helps when the truck is already sitting near by and doesn't have to deadhead across 5 states to pick it up.   [Reply]  [No Email]

SOme are legit haulers who know their costs but are looking for backhauls and to fill out loads. There are some that are trying to be legit, have no idea on their costs, and after a year or so go back to their day jobs. Then, there are a ton that arent legit, dont have insurance or paperwork, and run for some extra cash....   [Reply]  [No Email]

That U-Ship site is a joke. Usually below cost freight rates wanted. One guy had a 20,000 lbs tractor wanted it shipped 600 miles and was willing to pay $500 or best quote to have it hauled. About laughed my butt off at that.   [Reply]  [No Email]

About 600 miles one way. I paid for the fuel, provided the trailer, and paid for one night in a hotel. He did it just to get away for a couple of days but I gave him $200 for his time and wear and tear on his pickup. Total costs came to $650 when fuel was $2.50 a gallon. Her's a picture of him getting back home.   [Reply]  [No Email]
