Everything You Need to Know About the State of Ohio (OH)

The first Europeans to explore what is now Ohio were the French fur traders in the 17th century. After being conquered by the French, Ohio became a British territory after the French and the Indian War in 1754. At the end of the American Transformation, Britain delivered control of the region to the newly developed United States, which merged it into the Northwest Region.

The name Ohio originates from the Iroquois word ohi-yo, meaning "great river" or "large creek". The state of Ohio is situated along the Ohio River, which formed part of the border between the original colonies of Virginia and Pennsylvania. The river was called the Ohio by the Iroquois Indians and was given this name because it was the great river of the land.
Ohio was added as a state on March 1, 1803, when President Thomas Jefferson signed the act of Congress accepting Ohio as the seventeenth state of the Union. Although no formal, declaration was made until August 7, 1953 when President Dwight D. Eisenhower issued a proclamation formally admitting Ohio as a state in retrospect to the initial day. Ohio is fondly called the “Mother of Modern Presidents," due to the fact that it is the home state of seven presidents, including William Henry Harrison, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, Benjamin Harrison, and Warren G. Harding.
The "Buckeye State" is Ohio's official nickname, which comes from its official tree, the Ohio Buckeye tree. The Buckeye tree plays an important role in Ohio's history and culture, as it is a strong symbol of the state's proud heritage.is attributed to the frequency of the local buckeye tree, whose fruit was believed to birth a striking similarity to the eye of male deer by early American Indians.
Ohio is also known as the house of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is located in Cleveland, Ohio and celebrates the legacy of music artists from around the world who have made a significant impact on the genre of rock and roll. It was established in 1983 and continues to honor musical excellence.
The city of Cleveland was founded by Connecticut-born Moses Cleaveland in 1796. At the time, that Moses Cleaveland founded the city of Cleveland in 1796, the region was part of the Connecticut Western Reserve, a tract of land granted to Connecticut by the Continental Congress in 1786. After surveyor Moses Cleaveland was hired by the Connecticut Land Company to create a plan for the city, he led a group of surveyors and fifty-eight settlers along the Cuyahoga River in 1796. During the trip, Cleaveland named the area along Lake Erie "Cleveland". The original settlement's name was spelled "Cleaveland," with an extra "a," but the spelling changed over time. After the village was incorporated in 1814, the spelling was officially changed to "Cleveland" with the drop of the "a". Cleveland is very important to Ohio. The city is one of the largest cities in the state, and it has a strong economic, educational, and cultural impact on the surrounding region. It is a major tourist destination, it is home to a number of large employers, including the Ohio state government, national and regional banks, and a number of Fortune 500 companies, and it is a major hub for healthcare and higher education.

What to Look for in Car Shipping Companies in Ohio

When deciding on a car shipping company in Ohio, it is important to consider the following factors:

  1. Company’s reputation: It is vital to look for a company with a good reputation. Ask friends, family, and neighbors for recommendations, or look for customer reviews online.
  2. Company’s policies: Make sure to ask about the company’s rates and payment policies to ensure you are getting a good deal. It is also important to make sure the company is licensed and insured, as this will offer protection in the event of any problems during the shipping process. Furthermore, you should check the company’s terms and conditions to ensure they are clear and fair.

Once you have narrowed down your options to a reputable car shipping company, it is important to ask as many questions as possible. Ask about the estimated time of delivery, pick up and drop off procedures, available modes of transport, insurance coverage and any other services the company may provide. You may also want to inquire about the company’s experience dealing with cars that are in non-running condition.

Knowing all of these details ahead of time will help you make an informed decision when choosing a car shipping company in Ohio.

    Ohio also has an extensive system of approved state bike trails. The majority of them follow rail-trails, with conversions still in progress. The Ohio to Erie Trail (Route 1) connects Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Columbus. Meanwhile, the U.S. Bike Route 50 goes through Ohio from Steubenville to the state line of Indiana near Richmond.

    Ohio is home to numerous long-distance hiking trails, the most renowned being the Buckeye Trail. At 1,444 miles (2,324 kilometers) long, it circles around the state and contains both off-road pathways and road segments. Furthermore, the North Country Trail (the longest of the eleven National Scenic Trails certified by Congress) and the American Discovery Trail (a network of trails and roads creating a coast-to-coast route across the middle of the United States) both cross through Ohio, with much of them overlapping with the Buckeye Trail.

    Ohio is home to several major east-west transportation corridors. In the early 1900s, one of those major routes, known as “Main Market Route 3”, was chosen to be part of the historic Lincoln Highway, which was America’s first coast-to-coast road, connecting New York City to San Francisco. Along its path through Ohio, the Lincoln Highway connected various towns and cities, including Canton, Mansfield, Wooster, Lima, and Van Wert. This brought about a significant change in the development of the state. In 1926, when the national highway system was established, the Lincoln Highway in Ohio became UNITED STATE Route 30.

    Additionally, Ohio is home to 228 miles (367 km) of the Historic National Road, now known as UNITED STATE Route 40.

    Ohio boasts a large network of roads and interstate highways. North-south highways such as I-75 (connecting Toledo, Dayton and Cincinnati), I-71 (running from Cleveland through Columbus and Cincinnati into Kentucky) and I-77 (from Cleveland through Akron, Canton, New Philadelphia and Marietta south into West Virginia) are widely transited. Other major east-west highways include the Ohio Turnpike (I-80/ I-90) stretching across the north of the state and I-70 passing through Columbus and Dayton. In particular, the stretch of I-75 between Cincinnati and Dayton is one of the busiest pieces of interstate in Ohio.

This review is easy! Janet Rinella at Ship A Car, Inc. Is a huge asset to that company. I had been through 2 miserable experiences with 2 transport companies, both of which I canceled after much frustration and NO results nor return calls, even after paying their required deposits. Learned through Google that best way to get auto transported is through a Broker. For some then unknown reason I called Ship A Car, Inc., and Janet Rinella answered the phone. Janet knows her stuff, is dependable, knowledgeable of this business, straight forward, kind, diligent, and FAST with results. From my first call with her, she found a transport company, located their driver and set up the pick up of the vehicle we were transporting to our grandson who is an Airman at Dover AFB, Delaware. This all was done by Janet's persistent follow up, contacting me daily every step of the way. She seemed to be as concerned for our grandson to get the car as we were. She is not only proficient at her job, she is caring, even to the point of asking me to contact her "no matter how late" when we met our driver and he drove it onto the ramps of the truck. That was last Tuesday. Our grandson received his car across country YESTERDAY! There is no doubt in my mind that had we hired any other company, we would still have that car in our driveway and our nerves and stress levels would be off the chart. In addition, throughout my many calls, texts and emails to Janet, we have developed a special and forever friendship. Her people skills are genuine, her work ethic is beyond reproach.

I first want to say that Ship A Car, Inc. did a fabulous job with shipping my 1977 Mercedes from Los Angeles to Georgia. I shipped the car covered and it arrived with no damage. Sam Ladin took my order and kept me informed at every step. My only complaint is with the trucking company, Z Trans, who accepted the dispatch. The company came a day later than the scheduled time to pickup the car and didn't call me to tell me they weren't coming. The day before the car was supposed to arrive, I phoned the driver and told him what time I would be at the location. Never heard back from him. He arrived early morning and was rude to my family and threatened to return the car to Los Angeles unless they were paid. The people who run this company speak little English so this adds to the difficulty in keeping in contact. So if Ship-A-Car tells you that Z Trans picked up their dispatch order, ask them to change it. I've informed them of this issue, so it shouldn't be a problem.

I had a motorcycle shipped on October 3rd, 2017. I would rate this shipment at 4.75 stars. The motorcycle was in excellent condition upon arrival. The communication with the driver was a bit lacking. I had to contact him to get info on when he would pick up and when he would arrive here. I had no idea when we were going to receive our shipment without contacting him.
