“They were late They promised an enclosed trailer and it was not an enclosed trailer. Even though they promised so, and charged me more for an enclosed trailer. The person who picked up the bike, did it very unprofessionally. The dealership warned me that they were concerned when they saw what they picked the bike up with. They told me it was able to be picked up the day of confirming the quote early in the morning. It wasn’t picked up until six days later. Then on the delivery day, it was delayed an additional day.”

“Background: A transport provider said they could pick it up on a certain date, then reneged after I paid the deposit. My REAL gripe is that in order to get a refund, Shiply make you fill out a customer service form requiring 'detailed answers' to get the refund you're legally obligated to receive. Just give me back the money!!”

Hi, I'm really sorry to hear the transport provider let you down after confirming the date — that’s understandably frustrating. Regarding refunds, we require a brief form to be completed so that we can confirm the facts and ensure a fair process for both parties. It’s not meant to be burdensome, just enough to verify the cancellation and action the refund swiftly. If you haven’t already, please email support@shiply.com and we’ll assist you promptly.

“For a legitimate business providing a legitimate service, they sure do take advantage of people. Not just the folks looking for a shipper, but more so to the shipping companies themselves. I assumed the deposit to secure the transport company and accept contract, was just that, a deposit in good faith to the transport company. Remaining balance due at delivery. I also assumed the $150.00 service fee was for using the Shipley web based services. I had no issue paying it. Until I found out the deposit is the amount Shipley upcharges to the quote from the shipper/broker. Save yourself 20-25% and search out shipping companies yourself, then contact them directly. I completely understand everyone has to make a dollar, but to gouge the customers, not be truthful about charges is just shady business practice. As well as taking money out of the shippers pocket by forcing them to bid so low they barely break even due to Shipley's upcharging practices.”

Hi, Thank you for your feedback, and I apologise for any confusion regarding our pricing. To clarify: the deposit paid when booking goes to Shiply as a service fee, not to the transport provider. This is how we cover platform costs and support. The remaining balance is paid directly to the transporter, as agreed in your quote. We do not mark up or alter transporter quotes — they set their own prices. If a transporter chooses to bid lower, that’s entirely up to them, and they’re aware of the platform fee structure before quoting. We strive to be transparent about our commission structure and understand the importance of clear communication with our users. You can review the Shiply fee structure on our Terms Page (https://www.shiply.com/terms). If you have any further questions or concerns about the commission or any other aspect of our service, please feel free to contact our support team at support@shiply.com. We're here to assist you and provide any information you may need. Kind Regards, Steve

“DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE. Despite having all the details of the job - dimensions, weight etc. they arrived THREE HOURS LATE to the collection point and then refused to take it because it was TOO heavy. They had all the information and this was never raised, even thought I had been clear about the job and what was being collected. APPALLING SERVICE. UNHELPFUL, LATE, DO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.”

“I recently was going to use this company to pick up a truck to deliver. The person on the other end decided to not sell the vehicle. I put a request in for my deposit refund and my phone number. A representative did call as soon as I said refund was needed, she said she call back. I've never heard back and I've not recieved my refund and there's no number to call them. Lesson learned if you don't got a phone number to call don't use them. I've asked around and others say they are well known for that and if your car gets damaged I hear they don't respond to any of that either. I didn't wanna leave this review but since no communication and after all the bs I'd stay away from this company! If I could get a refund I'd be a lil more happy!!!!! It's been 3-4 weeks know since I have sent request emails ect”

“I would not recommend this service. Communication between the drivers, dispatchers and myself was very difficult. The pickup time changed three times always at the last minute and the drop off time changed numerous times as well. Additionally, the delivery driver did not do the drop off check list and forged my signature. Be sure you are checking everything and signing for yourself once your item is delivered.”

“To be clear, this review is about the process and not delivery itself. Having options is great, but the entire point of using a site like this is to simplify things on the users end. I signed up hoping to have a reasonable number of options with quotes. In the span of fifteen minutes, my email was flooded with nearly FOUR DOZEN emails, over half of which were just them asking for more information. Suggestions: include a few more selections to help limit the questions from shippers (e.g. home/business for pickup and drop of) and maybe give options to limit how many will contact you. As I'm typing this, even MORE emails are coming in, including second and even third follow up emails from shippers pressing for info.”

Hi, Thank you for your feedback, and I'm sorry to hear the quoting process felt overwhelming. We understand that receiving a high volume of emails can be frustrating, especially when you're just looking for a few clear options. Your suggestions about adding more filters and limiting contact volume are really helpful, and I’ve shared them with our team for review. In the meantime, you can adjust your notification preferences or opt to view and manage quotes directly from your Shiply inbox to reduce email volume.

“I had to urgently rebook a delivery after the original driver cancelled last minute and then stopped responding entirely. Thankfully, the new driver I found was excellent — responsive, professional, and handled the urgent delivery flawlessly on short notice. Shiply, however, has been a massive letdown. Their phone lines are disabled, and the only support option leads to a decades-old-looking ticketing system that promises a reply within 6 hours. It’s now been 21 hours since I submitted my ticket — at least over 8 business hours — and I’ve still heard nothing. I don’t understand how a company that facilitates time-sensitive deliveries can offer zero customer support outside standard office hours — and even during those hours, doesn’t seem to respond at all. I’m now left wondering whether I’ll ever get my deposit back for the original delivery, let alone any compensation for the extra cost I had to pay to rebook last minute. Extremely disappointed. What is the point of Shiply? Might as well respond to ads in the paper for all the support they seem to provide with the process.”

“The driver threatened me and stole my items. The “company” I chose through Shiply were not the people who completed the delivery, they just booked another driver. He badly damaged my items and the walls of the gallery, then threatened me and stole my stuff, now asking for more money to return the items. Shiply haven’t even responded to my messages and there’s no way to contact them urgently to report anything. WILL NEVER USE AGAIN”

“Booked a service after hours of research, and their provider then jacked up the delivery by 40% due to their 'human error' after we agree contracts. I expect Shipley to use reputable relaible providers. Made compaint to Shipley and hear nothing from them all day to resolve this.”

“Just want to say how upset I am over this service. They turned up late at 10.15pm to collect, damaged my carpet and property on collection. They delivered 2 days later than agreed on chat Promised me they would protect the sofa with blankets and straps, instead they delivered unprotected and upside down with marks and damage. This was a return to a sofa shop for me to get a refund. This has cost me alot of money and damage. Seriously take a note of the bad reviews and do yourself a favour and don't use these people.”
