Re: Shipping - Radioguy is spot on pointing out UShip.
EXCELLENT for larger household items, cars, motorcycles, and machinery probably lighter than 3k lbs.
Or even a big pile of moving boxes
I have used then for a pair of 140lb ea speakers, similar cubes to a clothes washer each.
And know a few others did similar from another Forum I frequent.
Best deal by far, AND door to door, not required business or elevated Dock pickup, basically ends up as "White Glove" transportation situation.
As ANYTHING - You NEED to review your individual bidders.
Some are historied, some are brand new.
Almost all honest, a few scammers tossed in, like anywhere else.
Some more experienced w machinery, others more like a 10k leather sofa and Art paintings.
Some both.
ALL the info is readily diggable drillable on the UShip site.
Some silly people may say "Uship is a scam"
Cause they did something stupid like prepay for a fancy 2k puppy.
Idiots - Uship is not a scam, BUT a few scammers use it, like alll other venues.
Like saying "Craigslist , or Ebay is a scam".
But SOOOOOO many silly people posting online.
That's why you need to read about your bidding providers history.
I gave my driver a Bone in GORGEOUS Rib Steak , he travels pretty self contained, 4 door dually, large enclosed trailer, small built in propane BBQ inside the nose behind a door.
Sleeps most nights in his back seat, saving $.
Hard conscientious worker.
