Shipping boxes

buddyboat Mar 19, 2007 01:05 PM

Hello, I ask this question on the shipping forum already, but it's like a "ghost town" over there.

What size shipping boxes do you guys use for baby Boa Constrictors (to keep shipping cost to around $35.00).

I'm going to try to get FEDEX certified to ship, I just need to know the proper size boxes to order.

Thanks again,
John

I prefer 12 x 9 x 6 but $35 for shipping is a bit of a stretch if you ask me. My packages average $55-60 and I use FedEx almost exclusively.

I also use 12 x 9 x 6 boxes for most stuff. Shipping usually runs $45-60. I only ship FedEx.

Here's what I use to ship baby pythons (haven't produced any boas... yet). I ship by FedEx, and it typically runs ~$45. These are a lot better than what most people who have shipped to me use.
