Overnight Reptile Shipping
People ask “Why are you, In Situ, getting into the reptile shipping business?” The answer to that has two components. The first reason is we were able to negotiate amazing overnight rates with Fedex. But, that wasn’t the compelling reason. What we found is that other shipping suppliers really don’t give enough instructions, and the instructions they give are not really intended for rainforest plants and animals. So, we decided to dig deeper and come up with a program that both supports our community, as well as delivers exceptional service. Here are the key points:
- Our founder has years of engineering heat transfer, as well as mountaineering experience, and he’s applied keeping heat in and staying warm to reptile packaging and shipping. You’ll now see recommendations for phase packs, as well as specific materials to use that will help ensure a safe arrival.
- Our Loss Recovery Program isn’t insurance, it’s a fund that, once established, will help protect our rainforests by purchasing sensitive lands, as well as help defray losses if an animal succumbs under certain conditions. In other words, we are not pocketing profits from insurance, we building a stronger community and world.
- Our overnight guarantee refunds your purchase price of the shipping if the animal does not arrive on time. Just let us know, and we’ll process the return.
- Buying a terrarium and having frogs (animals) shipped to you is a great experience, and we plan to bundle terrarium sales with overnight shipping as a means reducing the overall costs of getting started. There’s nothing we could do to change Ground shipping rates. But, with our new overnight rates, there’s now something we can do to make purchasing a terrarium a little less painful.
For now, all of our booking processes are manually accomplished. Thanks for supporting us while we update our web site to make it seamless and efficient.
