"How To Do It Legal ?????"

I would like to know the best way to ship "Legal" of boas....Let me explain ...Fedex No way they said. Airborne/Dhl does not do it no more Delta told me that I need to be certified which takes about a month or so depending on location,So comes my diliema How are you PPl getting your snakes to your customers? with no static Any help would be grateful Thanks

I'm making a shipment with US Airways on Thursday. I'll post here after it's all said and done.

Thanks... Look forward to it.

I am NOT making a shipment with US Airways on Thursday.

US Airways has NO direct flights from Denver to St Louis, or Denver to Dallas/Ft Worth.

US Airways has NO cargo hub, other than on the east coast.

US Airways does NOT contract out cargo flights, only people flights.

My only option to get a snake from Denver to St Louis was to have US Airways fly it from Denver to Pittsburgh, leave it sitting on the runway for 5 hours, and then fly it from Pittsburgh to St Louis. My customer would NOT be please with this, and I won't take the risk.

There was simply NOTHING available to get a snake from Denver to Dallas/Ft Worth.

Luckily, our local Delta Dash office is REALLY cool. Aimee called them this morning, and they will be at our house at 5:00 TODAY, to inspect, finish paperwork, and have us ready to ship via Delta Dash by Thursday morning.

Delta rocks!

here is what think is going on. Alot of people arent shipping legally. They are shipping UPS and FedEx. They are shipping when the temperture in there state and your state are ok for the snake. Boxing them carefully and writing "perishable handle with care this side up" or something of this sort and just shipping illegally and if they get caught most likely the animal goes back to them and they get a slap on the wrist and try shipping it through the other choice.
All this is just assumption dont take my word for it. I dont ship.

Steps to become Fed-Ex certified to ship.

Mark and Aimee,

I would be cautious about having your package ready to ship out by Thursday morning simply because I was told something completely different then you were by all of the Delta folks I have spoken with when I was in the process of being verified.

I had my home inspected a good month ago or so, but when I talked to the folks at the local hub and in person at my house, they both told me that the house inspection was the quick part, but that having the paperwork sent to Atlanta (the big Delta hub) and reviewed for the background check, etc., was what usually took 2-4 weeks before you would be added to verified shippers list.

I sincerely hope that you are able to ship out this week as promised, but it might not be a bad idea to have a backup in case you are not able to. Best of luck!

I do not understand the home inspection thing. What right do they have to come into your home and inspect for anything and how do they justify the need to do so?

I am not trying to be smart or anything like that, I truly do not understand why people give up thier constituional rights to companys because they would like to use thier services.

I have said it before and I am sure I will say it again.

I have said it before and I will say it again, the US Constitution pertains to the GOVERNMENT ONLY. It does not pertain to private business or individuals.

Anyways, what right do they have? If you want to ship through them and one requirement is they inspect your facilities and you decline, (which you have the right to do), they have the right to refuse you service.
