I bought a snow machine on Ebay. There Calculator told me it was 705 miles away. That is the very outside of my range,if I was going to pick it up myself. Unfornately Ebay figures as the crow flys, in a sraight line. Well you can,t drive straight across Lake Michigan. The actual drive was 1043 miles each way. I heard about U ship from a friend. I put a price on there site which I was willing to pay and got a shipper.I could not Drive out there for there Price,The Gas would have cost me more alone. Then theres food and two Nights in a motel. They Balanced it out by hauling a load both ways, Great for me and them. My haulers Peachie 8160 did a super job, Delivering My machine on time and In perfect condition. They had to pick it up in a snow storm,and saved me a lot of grief. Also they let me know where they were along the way and when they would arrive. I found the whole U ship experience for a first time user EXCELLENT. A good system,very resonable prices, Very Good People. I would not hesitate to use U Ship in the future......Pat Nelson
