The show follows six independent shippers who place bids to ship items that traditional shipping companies refuse to transport via uShip. uShip is an online auction site that allows truckers to bid on jobs. Once they are selected, they must transport the item to its new home, while staying within budget, and on schedule. The show displays their actual expenses, against their bid at the end of each episode, to indicate whether they made a profit, and if the run was successful or not.
