Delta Dash certified

Do you need to actually be a business and have a business license to become a verified shipper? I just have a few snakes that I would like to ship, but I don't have a business license or anything. Does anyone know?

Thanks,
Matt

I called delta a few weeks back to ask the same thing...apparently, you don't need to be a business or anything, even if you want to ship only once. The woman I spoke to was fairly confident and she directed me to the delta web page where you can link to the dash certification site...it only takes a few minutes to fill out...

hope that helps.

it's ben a few years since I looked into it but at that time they had to do visit to your home or business and you had to ship at least 3 times every 6 months if I remember correctly. Please let me know if they've changed the rules

Packages Shipped Quickly...you don't have to be certified...they do on site (as in, when you bring it to their facility) inspections of your animals/packing. Need to arrange shipping 7 days in advance. It's slightly more expensive (85 dollars up to 50 pounds) but if you're shipping only once, it's probably the best option...also, they probably don't serve as many cities as DASH...

hope that helps...
