Shipping without syr

I am trading with someone and need to ship to fla. Could I just put the snake in a box wrapped in a bag and insulated with 3/4 foam and write perishable on the box and ship with fedex?

I'm fairly certain that you have to be certified to ship a live reptile via fedex. SYR is probably your best option.

If you cant do it correctly then youre better off not doing it at all. You have to go through an approval process before you can ship straight through FedEx, your ONLY alternative is SYR

This ^^

Just use SYR; we don't need any more bad press about the reptile industry if the package is found by the wrong person. :colbert:

No you cannot if you want to use Fedex directly you need to be certified (it takes about 2 weeks), if you are not please do not ship directly through fedex use SYR.

It's completely illegal to ship live animals unless you are certified, or you use SYR..

Please use SYR!

Why would you pay more to ship on your own? Don't be that guy.... Seriously.

Besides, with the Lacey act being more strict now, you'd be surprised how many boxes get a surprise inspection at FedEx.. Especially if it appears to be a live animal and your name is not coming up in their system as being certified. They are not stupid. They do this for a living..
