Re: help getting vert home

I used uShip when I bought my vert. Pick the pick up and drop off points and wait for the quotes to roll in. Within 24 hours I had a few dozen quotes ranging from high to low, single hauler independents to big shipppers. In the end I paid 300 from northern jersey to upstate NY in an enclosed trailer. Offer from a small carrier who happened to be making the trip up here anyhow. Fair chance you can get a deal with all the winter migration.

Re: help getting vert home

Well I live south of Blytheville and could help you get it part way if someone else could help from there. I could deliver it for expenses and a little extra for a fellow thirdgener. I have a duramax and a great car hauler with a winch etc.
