    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This was sprung on me today and was news to me being I am a known shipper through Delta, I went to ship out two orders today and was notified that new boxing reg's for non-venomous are active. This is a "New IATA Reg."
that the shipping boxes must be Wax coated boxes to prevent boxes from from moisture or getting wet and becoming an unstable carton.

Has anyone else run in to this shipping through Delta lately?

Now my question is how do we get the suppliers that all of us buy shipping container/boxes to accommodate our needs being wax coated boxes are significantly more expensive.
 
Randall,

Do you have a link to that new regulation?

Thanks.
 
Ya Know I did not even think to ask them for a copy they just told me about it at the air cargo counter I will see if I can get a copy of the reg. and post it later in the week
when I go back to ship.
 
Thanks! It would be nice to be aware of the new regulations.

Take care,
