I looked at dozens of delivery options, and this was the only place I could find to get a reasonable bid for delivering my grandmother's dining table from TX to CA. One item - very precious to me. I received a couple of great bids, and went with Robert Benedict. He uses USHIP to help keep his family business alive during these tight economic times. I couldn't have been happier with him - and with USHIP for the service they provide! I would recommend this path for anyone who wants to ship a valuable item cross country. Very few shippers do single items, so USHIP is a gold mine! I'm so glad I found it!
