💡 Pro Tip:
Complete your profile with accurate contact details to help transporters reach you quickly.
Describe what you need transported, where it needs to go, and when. Include pickup and delivery postcodes, item dimensions, weight, and any special requirements. Add photos to help transporters provide accurate quotes.
💡 Pro Tip:
The more details and photos you provide, the more accurate your quotes will be. Mention if you need help with loading/unloading or if the item is fragile.
Verified transporters across the UK will review your job and place competitive bids. Most jobs start receiving quotes within a few hours. You'll get email notifications for each new bid and can view all quotes in your dashboard.
💡 Pro Tip:
Don't just choose the cheapest bid! Check transporter reviews, ratings, insurance verification, and response times to ensure quality service.
Review all bids carefully. Use our secure messaging system to ask transporters questions about their experience, vehicle type, insurance coverage, or any special requirements. Compare prices, reviews, and professionalism before making your choice.
💡 Pro Tip:
Ask about pickup timing, vehicle size, and whether they have experience with similar items. Good communication early prevents problems later!
Once you've chosen your preferred transporter, accept their bid and make a secure deposit payment via PayPal. Your payment is held safely in escrow and won't be released to the transporter until you confirm the job is complete. This protects both you and the transporter.
🔒 Security Note:
Never arrange payment outside of ShipTo. Our secure payment system protects you from fraud and ensures you have recourse if there's a problem.
Your transporter will collect your item and deliver it safely to the destination. Track progress through status updates and direct communication. Once delivery is confirmed and you're satisfied, release the payment to the transporter and leave a review to help future customers.
💡 Pro Tip:
Take photos of your item before and after transport. Request proof of delivery photos from the transporter. Leave honest reviews to help maintain quality in the marketplace.
