- This is starting
to piss me off. - Yee-haw! - NARRATOR:
...who risk everything to haul the most
unusual items... - JARRETT: Fire in the hole! - MAN: I've never moved anything
of this caliber. - NARRATOR: One wrong move
and they could lose it all. But if the bid is right... - Yeah!
- Boom! - NARRATOR: ...rewards
can be huge. - MARC: More money, more money,
more money! - NARRATOR: On this episode
of "Shipping Wars"... - Today I'm shipping an indoor black light mini-golf
attraction. - Fore! - Our grand opening's tomorrow. - MARC: Well, I guess it won't
be that grand-- - [gasps]
- --or open. - PATRICK: We're paying a lot
of money to have this artwork
shipped here. - Go ahead and set it down. - Hold it. - Whoa, whoa, whoa! - JENNIFER: I don't get
intimidated. I was raised to be tough. - I been driving since birth. Coming down!
- MAN: There you go. - What can I say--I'm awesome. - JARRETT: I'm very much
an amateur at this, and definitely having
an "Oh, [bleep]" moment here. - JESSICA: It's just me,
the truck, and the road. You guys need to get
that back on there. I got places to go,
people to see--let's go. - TODD: Time is money--
I want to get it loaded. - [squeals] Ah, look out! We're gonna knock
them out of the water. Yes! - Every time I win a bid, man, it's just like
I hit the jackpot. - Today, I have
two simple rules. One, don't haul
any [bleep] for free. And two, make sure these
d-bags haul [bleep] for free. - Bidding's gonna
be like a Mad Max movie. I'm going hard. And by the end, it's gonna look
like a desolate wasteland. Or my love life. Either way, worthless. - As a woman, I don't
expect special treatment. If it's neck and neck
at the end, I'll match. Hopefully they'll choose
talent and beauty. - Word is I gotta work
on my people skills. So today during bidding,
I'm going to refrain from calling these other
[bleep], well, [bleep]. Man, it's gonna be hard. - We're going about
this all wrong. - Yeah, we wanted
these guys to like us. But that's not gonna happen. - So today we get tough
and we kick some...butt. - MARC: Today I feel
like a rock star. And what do rock stars do? They tear [bleep]
up and go on tour. I'm gonna raise some hell at
bidding and hit the road with a load. - NARRATOR: Every day,
uship.com hosts special timed auctions for
select top-level transporters. - Money, money. - NARRATOR: First item
up for bid-- Pieces for a black light
miniature golf course. - Today I'm shipping a black
light mini-golf attraction. We have a client who contracted
us to build this attraction. The attraction is
tricky to transport. Nothing is in boxes. All the items are different
sizes, different shapes. - That's a lot of stuff. - Who has a mini-golf
course without a windmill? - Red's Fun Zone is a family
entertainment center that specializes in night
putt-putt golf. There's not a lot of different
attractions that kids can do year round. The mini putt-putt course
needs to arrive in one day for our grand opening. We have kids that are really
looking forward to this attraction. If the transporter doesn't
arrive in one day, we will not be able to open for our grand
opening and they won't be paid. - NARRATOR: These pirate-themed
props must travel 167 miles from St. Louis, Missouri, to
Paris, Illinois in one day. - I loved black lights
in high school. I'm in for making
some quick money. - The pickup's close. But that's a lot of pirates. - Black light mini-golf course. [bleep]. I don't mind a kiddie run,
as long as it pays adult money. - What a pile of stupid crap. Luckily I got a rig that
can haul stupid crap. - Nice short little route. Not too far from home. But all this might
take two trips. - I'm bidding on
this against idiots. Okay, you know, I've
called them a lot worse. - It's still okay
money for this. - The others are gonna have to
consider getting help loading and unloading. - That gives us
an edge on the money. - Time to run some
of these guys off. - Crap! - For this money, I'm out. - Damn it, Jenn,
I'm trying to be nice here. But you make it
so freaking hard! - You wanna see me
play, you gotta pay. Thank you...and good night. - Because I love
golf, I'm staying in. - That's not sailing
into kiddieland. - One more bid
before it's gone. - Todd and Tamera
are barely hanging on. - Let's not lose money here. - All right, we're out. - Fore! - I'm trying to be nice. I'm gonna work on that
in the next auction, because Jenn is a dip [bleep]. - Dusty and his whining
would scar children at this putt-putt opening. I'm doing this for the kids. - Jenn! Ugh! - I got this. - My reputation
against Jarrett's? No contest. - Not gonna happen. - Walk the plank, Jarrett. Whoa! - Man, I hope she gets scurvy. - Set a course
for Port St. Louis. I have one day to deliver
all this for this opening. I don't have time
for any errors. Miniature golf means all
the things are miniature, right? Hey, are you Patti? - I am Patti. - Hi, I'm Jennifer. - Jennifer, so
nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you. - We have a client in Paris,
Illinois, who is opening a brand-new family fun center. And they hired us to design their indoor
black light mini-golf. - That sounds like
quite an operation. - Let's go take a look. - Why the hell would
you hire Jenn to haul it? - JENNIFER: Oh, my God,
there's so many pieces. You're shipping all this? - Yeah. - Oh my God. I honestly don't think
all of these are gonna fit into my trailer. This looks like way
more than 55 pieces. - JESSICA: Jenn, quit showing
off like you can count. You're not fooling anyone. - You look concerned. - I hope it all
fits in the trailer. - Uh, Patti, I think this is
where you should be concerned. Just saying. - I guess I'm gonna
have to start thinking about what I'm gonna
load first. - PATTI: I'll get the guys.
- Okay. I am praying to the God of
Tetris that this all fits. Go, go, go, go, go. Put it over there. Is it gonna fit? Turn it. Oh man. How tall is that? Is that gonna fit in my trailer? You got it? - MAN: Yeah. - JENN: Okay. Oh my God, this ain't gonna fit. - JARRETT: It looks like
Jenn sucks at playing Tetris. Probably sucks at
playing Legos, too. - Is this the biggest rock? - I don't know how all
of these are gonna fit. They said 55 pieces, not 52 pieces with three big
chunks of Mt. Everest. It's like more and more
pieces than I thought. There's no way I
can make this work. - I don't--I don't
have any more room. I'm gonna have to do this
in another--I'm gonna have to do this in two trips. I have no idea how I'm
gonna make my deadline. Hey, Patti? - Yes. - There's no way I can get
all those rock statues. I'm gonna have to just pack
as much as I can in this and make two runs. - I don't think there's
time for two runs. - JENN: Well--
- You realize the deadline? - As long as I get all this
on there as fast as I can, then it'll be there on time. - All right, let's do it. - I hope this plan works. - I don't feel sorry for her. I'm the one that has to watch
her screw this up...twice. - No stops, come right back.
- All right. - We're on deadline,
or you don't get paid. - JENN: Okay. I'm pretty stressed right now. I'm having to haul ass or
there'll be no grand opening. - NARRATOR: Next item
up for bid-- Six modern art pieces. - I don't really think of
myself as an art collector, but I like having it around. These pieces are going
to my house in Santa Barbara. They each have
their own character. The thing I like about them
is there's a certain whimsy to most of them. - I don't what it
is, but I'll ship it. - My father
collects modern art. Much of his art shipped from
Idaho down to his new house in Santa Barbara. When my dad gets here, I'd like
the artwork to be here so he can show them where
to place it in the yard. We're paying a lot of money to
have this artwork shipped here. And if it doesn't get here
on time, I will not be paying
the full price. - NARRATOR: This collection
of modern art must travel from Hailey, Idaho,
to Santa Barbara, California. - Well, this load's better,
but only because Jenn's gone. - These just look
like rocks to me. Like it's something
I can handle. - It's saying the total weight
is 300 pounds. That's nothing. - It's gonna take a day to get
to the pickup, plus like a grand in expenses. But if it pays... - This [bleep] looks like
Jarrett made it, then shipped it. - You know, every time I see
this artsy fartsy stuff I think, "I gotta change careers." Hell, I can make
a ball out of duct tape. - Twenty-six hundred
is my low point. After this, I only bid to get
the others to their bottom. - We're taking
these clowns out. - That's my man. - Ugh, Todd and Tamera are
getting a little aggressive. It looks like Tamera's
back in the driver's seat. - This is a great
load for Jarrett. He could jack it up
and nobody could tell. - Those might be rocks, but
this isn't a rock star load. I'm out. - Just one more drop. - Marc figured
out we're serious. But Samko and the twins? Not so bright. - I can save money by
staying in the Taj Ma-Jarrett. - Getting stuck
with this would hurt. Time to pull the rip cord. - [laughs] Samko just
does not get art like I do. - All right, boys, it was kind of cute at first but, seriously,
this is ours. - Not gonna happen. - Talk about not taking hints. - Man, I want this run, but the money's turning
into small potatoes. - Aw, Jarrett's still
living the dream. - Wake him up. - Really? - At least I didn't
lose to Jenn and Jarrett. That's a small victory. - Time to go. - To Idaho. I didn't plan on that rhyming. - We are officially in
northwest cabin country. - It's got hoity-toity
written all over it. - Hoity-toity? Maybe that means something
different in Idaho. - Hello.
- I'm Jim. - We're your transporters.
- All right. - I'm Todd, nice to meet you. So you got some artwork
for us to pick up? - Oh, you mean the one that
looks like a giant pea-- piece of rock. - JIM: It is one of a kind. - It'll be okay
lying on its side? - Yeah, yeah. There's one more piece. - TODD: Now you
say that's going? - JIM: Oh, yeah. - That is? - JIM: Yeah. - MARC: Luckily Todd
has a Spiderman outfit. I mean, it's a kid's Spiderman
outfit, but Todd gets a lot of confidence when he wears it. - That's really up there. - JESSICA: You know
what that looks like? Something just waiting to be
knocking over by two idiots. - Okay, we'll get
everything in there, and we'll load that up last. - Okay. - TODD: All right, ready? You got it? - Yeah. Oh my gosh, it's heavy. What do you think
that is, 250 pounds? - MARC: Man, that's heavy. That's almost what I bench. - TAMERA: How the heck
are we gonna move this? - TODD: Get some two by fours,
and we're gonna slide it on the two by fours. There'll be a gap for the dolly. - TAMERA: Clearly Todd is
an amazing guy...until he starts thinking he's MacGyver,
then I get a little worried. - TODD: But we gotta spin it-- - TAMERA: Oh my gosh. - Go ahead and set it down. - TAMERA: Hold it!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! - Whoa, whoa, whoa! - Oh, son of a gun. You do realize we have to climb
up the side of the building, and we're gonna be
totally fatigued? I'm not doing it, I'm done. We can't do this,
we need to call somebody. - Who?
It's Idaho. There's like 40 people. - Sounds good, I'll
see you in a few. I got a couple guys that
are gonna come help us. - All right, let's go up there
and let's get that thing down. - TAMERA: The higher we go, the queasier I get about having
to bring this thing down. Oh my gosh. I think we should loosen
the bottom bolts first, tie it and then loosen
the top bolts. - TODD: All right. - TAMERA: Let me tie
the rope around you. - TODD: If I start to fall, you're not even
gonna be able to hold me. - You just won't fall as fast. - TODD: Okay, you gotta
give me some slack. Almost there on this one. We got it. Now it's time to
get up on the roof. Got her under control. Marc couldn't have done that. - TAMERA: I really feel like
we're forgetting something. - TODD: Uh...
big ass piece of stone? - There's a car coming. - You called for some movers? - TODD: Okay, that's good. - Thank you so much. - No problem. - TODD: Next time we'll
call the cavalry in sooner. - Dang straight we will. - As soon as everything is off
my trailer, I've gotta head back
to St. Louis. I've got so much
more to pick up. If I don't get all of these
pieces here, I'm not gonna get paid and I'll be doing
this run for nothing. - DUSTY: You know it's always
about me, me, me with Jenn. What about these little
French kids in Paris that wanna putt-putt with golf? - Jenn?
- Hey. - Hey, Donnie.
- Nice to meet you. - Hey, um, really quick, I
wanna let you know, I only got half the load, so--
yeah, it's a-- - No, seriously? - Yeah, so I've gotta get this
stuff unloaded quick and then I'm gonna head back. - Our grand opening's tomorrow. - Well, I guess it won't
be that grand...or open. - If you don't get back in
time, I'm not paying for this. I'm not paying for this. I'll get a couple guys,
I'll meet you around back. - DON: All right,
guys, let's go. - ♪ - Okay, guys, that's everything
that's off the trailer. So I'm gonna go ahead and get
the other load, and I'll see you in a few hours. - All right, hurry up.
- JENN: All right. I am concerned I'm not gonna
make the deadline, because it just depends on fast it takes
to reload this other stuff. - TODD: All right, so you got
the movers all taken care of? - I did find people
and equipment. But since it was last minute,
I don't know exactly when they're gonna be out there. That's the problem. There it is. - TODD: All right, let's go. - [doorbell rings] - Hi.
- Hey, how're you doing? - Hi, I'm Tamera.
You must be Patrick. - PAT: All right, my dad's here.
- Glad to see you made it. - So we'll just bring it out,
and you can tell us where you want it.
- Yeah, mm-hmm. - PATRICK: One question,
how long is this gonna take? - Uh...
- 'Cause we've got some guests coming over this afternoon,
so we'd like-- - Okay, the majority of
it'll take about 30 minutes. - Thirty minutes? What, are they
still on Idaho time? - TAMERA: You really told 'em
30 minutes, and we don't even know when
the movers are showing up? - TODD: All right, let's move. - TAMERA: How 'bout right
up there by that bamboo? - Up. - TAMERA: Um, no. - [phone ringing] - Yeah, we're ready. That's all we're waiting on. - Where the heck
are the movers? - Got it? - I thought you guys would
have been gone by now. - Well, us, too. But we're dealing with
contractors, and stuff comes up. So we're trying
to get ahold of 'em. - Let's keep, uh,
history in mind. It was delivered
to me by two guys. - They deliver rock sculptures
all the time, so they have the equipment. - No. No, it was a couple of landscape
guys who moved it for me. - Two guys? Well, you've got Tamera. Well, there's Todd. Yeah, you're gonna need movers. - I don't wanna waste all day. - You know I've had just
about enough of Andy Warhol. - JENN: This has gotta work. I've already took
the first load. The second load has to fit. She's waiting on me. The faster I get
this picked up, the faster I get
back on the road. If we can get both of those
big rocks loaded on first. - We're losing daylight
so, yeah, sounds good. - JENN: You guys go
grab the other one. Even if I manage to get this all
there on time, I don't even know if I'm gonna make any money. I've never done
a round robin before, and I'm never gonna do it again. - Really, Jenn? 'Cause I'd bet money you'll get yourself in a mess
like this again. - Hey, Don.
- I know, we need to get moving. - I know.
Okay. - DON: Gotta get
this stuff in here. - [no audible dialogue] - This is a problem. - This is a problem. - Is there any way
we can repair it? - DON: I--I don't know. - Let's just get this thing out
of here, and maybe we can find a way to fix it, okay?
- Okay. - You know if she'd have
broken that earlier, she may have been able
to do it in one run. - DON: Clearly we've got some
serious damage here on that wall that's been broke
in your trailer, and it's comin' out of your pay. - This guy's been hanging out
with way too many pirates, because I'm not handing
over any more money. If you give me the tools,
I'll fix it. - Let's get it fixed. We--we don't have
much time, let's go. - JENN: Okay. I busted my butt doing two runs. No way a fake broke rock
is gonna make me go broke. All right.
Voila! All right, I'm all done. Can you inspect these so
I can get paid and leave? - Okay. Everything looks good. You know, we had some problems
and you stepped up and you really helped us fix everything. I appreciate it. Uh, those kids are
gonna be excited here. We're gonna get opened on time. Here's your full payment. Thank you very much. - TAMERA: When these movers
finally do show up, I'm gonna have to hire two more to
help me hide their bodies. - Hey, guys, how're you doing? - MAN: Go, go. Whoa, whoa, whoa. - Awesome. - Yes! - Turn, turn. Watch your hands. - How does that look, sir? - Lookin' good? - Boy. - Warhol approves. - TAMERA: Well-earned cash. - MAN: Awesome. - Thank you so much. - I don't wanna brag, but
we totally killed that. We are done.
- Oh, great, great. - We just need you to take
a look at everything, make sure it's right
where you want it. - PATRICK: Okay. Yeah, I don't know.
What do you think? - Yeah, that's-- - Is that where you wanted it?
- Yep. - Okay, it looks good to me. - That is...where it belongs. - In a fire pit? Whatever you say. All right, we're ready to go if
you guys are ready to take care of everything. - Well, here's the initial
money we talked about on your share right there. - We are sorry to have
to charge you extra. - Yeah. But I saw what you
had to do, so... So thanks, great job. - Thank you so much. - Take care, safe trip. - NARRATOR: Todd and Tamera
received $1,825 for the art sculptures. After hiring help, they were
reimbursed, the couple walked away with $875
for the 3-day run. Jenn didn't fare as well with
her 2-run delivery, her expenses doubled, and she drove home with
only $211 in profit for 1 day's work. - JENN: All right, guys, Red's
Fun Zone is officially open. - [cheering] - I'm just so glad
it's dark in there. - Look at that, that's awesome. - [whispers] So they
can't see the mess I made. - Turn a little bit. Turn, I wanna see the sun. Magnifique. - Maybe Warhol will give
us $50 grand for that. Wow. - I'm an artiste.
