In the UShip user agreement it recommends that you verify the authority of potential carriers through www.safersys.org/companysnapshot.aspx.

Did you acquire and VERIFY the validity of your chosen Carrier's FEDERALLY MANDATED DOT & MC #'s as per the UShip User Agreement?  

http://www.uship.com/user_agreement.aspx

Note: Did you know that NO active "MC #" = No COMMERCIAL insurance? 

OOPS !!!!!!!

 

 INTERSTATE" transport requires an ACTIVE "MC" number! You verify it at the Government's "REAL TIME" web site: http://li-public.fmcsa.dot.gov/LIVIEW/pkg_html.prc_limain

You have two carriers bidding and both are active with legal numbers and insurance, but the lower cost one does not have authority to haul campers and has been put out of service twice for log violations and only has authority for the state of OR. NOT across state lines ( intrastate instead of interstate ), sometimes when it looks to good it is. Hope this helps.
