uShip
In 2001, CEO and Co-founder Matt Chasen was planning to move from Seattle to Austin to attend business school.
At the same time, his mother had been struggling for months with trying to ship a family heirloom dresser from Ohio to Texas.
The quotes she got from traditional freight companies were too expensive, and while the heirloom had sentimental value,
she couldn’t justify paying thousands to bring it home. uShip is an online shipping marketplace that connects customers with Transportation Service Providers to make shipping more affordable and efficient. uShip gives customers the power to find shipping services that match their needs, without being limited to the fixed rates and skyrocketing costs associated with traditional shipping options.
uShip’s revolutionary marketplace provides significant savings over traditional methods and lets customers choose the Transportation Service Provider who will give them the best service at the best price. uShip has a unique and powerful shipping platform that cannot be found anywhere else. While the reverse-auction marketplace remains the primary way for customers and Transportation Service Providers to connect, uShip offers a variety of tools and products that enhance the shipping experience.
