Wanted: Logistics Help Wanted

[r.morrison]

Well.......finally got every thing sorted out this afternoon on shipping the trailer to Quebec from B.C. Taking in every ones 2 cents, I threw it back on U Ship plus some direct phone calls and ended up with the following: Taking David's juicy little tid bit in, I got a quote from United Van Lines......wait for it.....$3200.00 plus taxes!!! And they're just down the street from the trailer! The only funny thing about this quote was when they sent it over, they said they were "THRILLED" to provide me a quotation. I spoke with the female sales rep. and said in the nicest, humorous way, that if this how you get your daily "thrills".....you need to get a new life! Next from U Ship was a boating company from Ottawa area already coming out here.....$2900.00. A transport company from Calgary offered $1900.00 with a little lee way in delivery time. Liveable. Next was Adam's Forwarding....I like these guys....$1800.00 plus txs.Then the guy I went with from the Ottawa Valley....and I am reluctant to mention his name only because he did me a side deal and I wouldn't want to get him in trouble...$1544.00 to Montreal...everything included. Now that I have done the U Ship deal, I have his direct number and email address and can contact him direct. He does a lot of speciality shipping, with 2 /45 foot cargo trailers for motorcycles and such. West coast to the East Coast. Anyone wanting the address....PM me. Thanks for everyone's help ...Robert
