Transporting turts

Sharon C Jun 02, 2003 12:11 PM

Has anyone shipped turts using any overnight postal service before? Fed Ex does not ship anything living and the post office told me no turtles or snakes.

Thanks for any help. Sharon

Thanks for reply. Do you know how long it takes. I thought UPS was several days. Thanks again.

Go to UPS website and you are able you enter zip codes from where the turtle is coming from and going too and it will tell you how long it takes depending on what method you choose. They ship overnight, 2 day, 3 day and ground.... ground is 4-7 business days. Always ship animals overnight if possible.

Airborne express is normally the cheapest way to go also!
