I needed to ship a vintage Honda 50 from Oregon to my home in California. I bought the item on eBay, thinking that I could go to Oregon to pick it up. It was then I discovered how difficult that would become given the logistics and weather between the two points. I was then told about USHIP and through that organization put out a notice of the need. I was contacted by Brian (Special Operations Transport - brianc.bulletproof@hotmail.com (559)250-8664) who gave me a quote that was about 35% of the standard carrier price (and for those guys the scooter would have to have been crated!). After we made the deal, Brian emailed me for the pertinent information, kept me posted on progress, and delivered the scooter without any hassle or damage whatsoever. In addition, Brian is a professional person, not only competent, but also enthused about what he is doing. He is not only a guy providing a service, but also a friend. I HIGHLY recommend Brian!! Thanks, Brian!!!
