​Shipping News:

​​​​

We are now offering Air Cargo shipping service via Air Canada Cargo. This is by far the safest and most reliable shipping method for transporting live animals throughout the nation, and we highly suggest choosing this method when ordering live animals. Air Cargo shipping is $125 - $135 to most Air Canada Cargo stations in Canada. These prices include all fees such as heat packs, insulated boxes, etc. We can fit several animals in our Air Cargo boxes, so group shipments with split shipping can always be arranged if we have several folks in the same location wanting to place an order. Air Canada does a very good job at ensuring a low-stress, temperature regulated, safe, and fast flight for the animals making this our #1 choice for shipping. We do offer Live Arrival Guarantee on Air Cargo shipments. Terms and conditions do apply. Please see our terms of service page for more information.

Also available is our typical FedEx priority overnight shipping through Reptile Runner. This option is usually cheaper for sending small packages with just a few spiders. FedEx rates typically range from $65-$100 for priority overnight service. These prices include all fees such as heat packs, insulated boxes, etc. Although this option is often cheaper, we highly recommend selecting Air Cargo over FedEx shipping for several reasons. FedEx shipments must be properly timed to meet weather requirements and can be subject to delays in transit making for a more stressful and less-safe trip. If you do choose FedEx shipping, it is best to have your package sent to a FedEx authorized ship center for a hold and pickup (must be FedEx staffed, no Staples, convenient stores, etc, unless given permission). If you choose to have the package delivered directly to your address, it will have to go on a delivery truck which FedEx does not temperature regulate or accommodate for live animals. Please note that some animals are not available for FedEx shipping and can only be shipped via Air Cargo. We do offer Live Arrival Guarantee on FedEx shipments. Terms and conditions do apply. Please see our terms of service page for more information.
