aid: uship name: uShip description: >- uShip is an online shipping marketplace, founded in 2004 and headquartered in Austin, Texas, that connects individuals and businesses with a network of professional transport service providers to move large, heavy, and oversized freight — cars and light trucks, motorcycles and powersports, boats, furniture and household goods, heavy equipment, livestock, and LTL freight. Shippers list a shipment for free and carriers compete with bids or bookable published rates, giving shippers pricing transparency and choice. uShip exposes the marketplace to partners, affiliates, brokers, carriers, and eCommerce platforms through the uShip API (v2), a RESTful, hypermedia-driven JSON API secured with OAuth 2.0 covering shipment search, listing creation by commodity category, bidding, published/LTL rate requests and rate acceptance, booking, tracking and transit statuses, lookups, and integrator user management. API access is partner-gated — the developer portal at developer.uship.com is invitation-only and access is granted by the uShip API team. url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/uship/refs/heads/main/apis.yml image: https://www.uship.com/apple-touch-icon.png x-type: company x-source: harvest:secondary-market specificationVersion: '0.21' created: '2026-08-02' modified: '2026-08-02' x-enrichment: date: '2026-08-02' status: enriched artifacts_added: 12 pass: local-v1 tags: - shipping - logistics - freight - marketplace - transportation - auto-transport - ltl-freight - last-mile-delivery - shipment-tracking - ecommerce - supply-chain - rate-quotes maintainers: - FN: Kin Lane email: kin@apievangelist.com - FN: APIs.json email: info@apis.io apis: - name: uShip API v2 description: >- The core uShip marketplace API — a RESTful, hypermedia-driven JSON API over the shipment lifecycle: searching active listings, creating and retrieving listings by commodity category, bids and bid acceptance, booking, contacts and conversations, feedback, payment codes, listing and transit statuses, tracking history, user profile, and lookup collections (commodities, address types, regions, currencies, service types, trailer types, vehicle year/make/model).
