Regarding Insurance for Live animal shipping: We look at the weather and the UPS & FedEx system. After analyzing the information, we decide if insurance is available for HUB only or HUB & HOME deliveries.

HELP US HELP YOU: We will open cases with FedEx on all our stuck shipments. Please DO NOT CALL UPS or FEDEX, as there is a risk that could cause even more delays with the shipment. Call us if you have any questions or concerns.
If you ship without purchasing insurance, you do so entirely at your own risk and financial liability! Note: Insurance is not available on Thursdays and Fridays, and there is to be no live shipping on Fridays.

1. Avoid shipping anything live on Mondays and Thursdays. Tuesdays and Wednesdays remain the safest shipping days FedEx-wise.
2. Do not call FedEx! Call or email us directly with any issues. FedEx has ZERO liability on live shipments, no matter what FedEx customer service might tell you!
3. Our On Time and Live Arrival Insurance is the only way to protect yourself when shipping live animals through FedEx. Only certain shipments are eligible for insurance coverage. Any uninsured shipments are at the shipper's own risk.
3. No handwarmers, ever. Handwarmers and heat packs with durations less than 40 hours kill animals.
4. Using any heat pack in a box smaller than ~12x9x6 can easily kill animals.
5. Using any heat pack when temps at either the origin or destination are 70F or above can easily kill animals.
If you are dealing with straddling temps or have any concerns whatsoever, contact us for recommendations!
Thank you!
