UShip Experience vs Other Shipping Options

[ClassicCokeLover]

In regards to shipping soda machines, what carriers have people used and what were your experiences? Building a crate on a pallet seems to be the way to go. Your response is welcome.

Thanks

I called them today they said they only do full size moves.  No individual items...

Jared,

Try 1-800-959-8880--ext 2 (Navl)  - you will need the  zip codes form the both the destination and origin cities.  They will quote you while you are still on the phone

North American hauled a single machine across the country for me. It got delivered right after New Years. No pallet or crating involved. Cost $480.00 from CA to AR

Southeastern freight lines was great for me. The hauled my jukebox from norther Alabama to Jacksonville fl for $210.00. Arrived in perfect shape and you could track it on their website the whole way.

I use North American all the time. I rather ship a Coke Machine across the country them mail a letter to my neighbor. Shipping a Coke Machine just takes a phone call, mailing a letter requires a stamp, something I never have at home. North American is great. It's always around $450 for me as I'm in California and they deliver door to door. No pallet, no creating. They blanket then shrink wrap it right in front of you. Best part that the shiiping is COD. Great selling point if you are selling a machine as it gives the buyer about 10 days to have to pay those funds. Uship is also good. Takes a little more work but could be quicker in the long run. You have to post the ad but if someone is in your area then it is quicker for sure. I posted a ad there once and had someone at my front door 2 hours later. You then keep their number so next time you can just deal with them direct.
