| What we offer |
CitizenShipper an auction style marketplace where you list your items that need shipping, and thousands of qualified movers and delivery drivers bid on your listing. Drivers compete to win your job ensuring that the price is driven down as low as possible. Savings up to 75% are not uncommon on our site.
When listing with us, you have no obligation to actually select anyone to perform your job, so you can use the service to obtain competitive quotes from some of the many professional shipping companies registered on our site. Forget phoning companies only to receive inflated quotes, just list on
CitizenShipper.com and let the drivers do the work!
With thousands of professional drivers, and movers all waiting to bid on your job, we can guarantee you'll find a great price on our site! The drivers work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This means that you can obtain quotes any time of day or year. Whether you need a fridge moved, a couch delivered or a cooker picked up, we can help. You can even use CitizenShipper to find someone to help move furniture in your own house. |
|
| Why is this Cheaper? |
We only try to match drivers who are already driving somewhere! Because of this, drivers are very often willing to do your job for much less than more traditional services.
As an example example, Richard S., from Fort Worth, TX recently listed an exercise bike that he needed shipping from Fort Worth to Lawrence, TX, a roundtrip journey of over 120 miles! Most moving companies would charge upward of $300 for this move, but Ron found movers on CitizenShipper who could do the move for only $125. That's a saving of around 50%! |
|
| Is this safe? |
Absolutely! We believe that this is safer than all the competition. Here's how we ensure that your delivery is in the safest of hands.
- We perform background checks, criminal record checks and address and name checks on all our verified drivers. Once you're posted a shipment and have bids you can even see the phone number, email, and address of drivers and give them a call and chat with them about the shipment.
- Our couriers are the best-of-the-best. Many of the drivers who are registered on our site have worked for UPS, FedEx, professional courier services, and trucking companies and have years of experience under their belts.
- Protection from loss. We offer competitively priced insurance so that if ever anything did get damaged or lost you would receive compensation! We have partnered with Oswald Companies and International Excess who are widely accepted as the industry leaders in shipping insurance. Post your shipment for FREE and select to cover your shipment with insurance (insurance is purchased only after you have awarded a shipment which is optional).
- Our users can leave feedback on each other! That way you can see if a courier is punctual, smart, friendly and reliable. With our feedback system we quickly weed out any undesirable users from our site.
- Our members upload pictures of themselves and their vehicles! That way you know who to expect, and the type of transportation they own. Get Bids Now!
We are the only web site in existence to offer such stringent background checks on our verified drivers and to provide such extensive protection for our members.

| Can You Guarantee My Shipment? |
| Yes. If your items are lost, damaged, or stolen in the shipping process then your loss is covered by insurance. We strive to take away all of the risk when you ship your items with us!* |
|
| Ok, so how does this work? |
We've made the site as simple and user friendly as possible, first you list your moving details, including important information like the estimated weight of the object or objects that you need picked up. We'll also need to know where it's going to, and where it needs to be picked up from, what time you want it delivered by and a guide to how much you would like to pay. Very quickly drivers will begin to bid on your listing and you will be notified of a drivers bid both by email, and a notification on our site after you log in. If you like the look of a driver then simply accept him for the job! After that the driver will arrive at the specified time, but we encourage both you and the drivers to give each other a quick call just to clarify all the details.
When a driver bids, you can click on his or her name and see a profile on that driver. This includes important information including their contact details, how much moving experience they have and pictures of their truck.
|
|
| Is My Privacy Respected? |
| Yes. Until you select a driver, only the zip code and state of your items information is shown. Only after you have made your final selection will the driver be able see the exact details of your shipment. |
|
| What can I send on your site? |
With so many professional drivers registered on our site, we can cater a variety of needs. You could be listing a twin mattress, a cooker, a dishwasher, a stove, or any household item at all! If you need it moved - we can help! We'll always help you to find the right driver for your job!

| What if something goes wrong? |
| First, call your driver directly. If that doesn't help then call or email us on support@citizenshipper.com and we'll take care of things for you. |
|
| List your job for FREE |
| Because our business is largely based on site traffic, we don't take a cut from the job. Using our site is 100% FREE and we won't charge you a cent. If you get bids that you don't like, simply decline them. There's no risk and no obligation for you to select a mover. |

| I recently moved apartments and found somone on CitizenShipper to do the moving. It was great knowing that so many people were interested in doing the move for such a small amount.
Cynthia and another gentleman were very professional, put the bed up, mirror on the dresser…I was very impresed.
