Just ordered my repster box. Questions.

It goes both by size and weight.

As stated, you will need to fill in both the weight and size. If you use one of their boxes, there is a drop down menu to make life simple. If you are using your own box, simply measure it and enter it into the field indicated. The whole process walks you through what to do. It's actually very simple. :)

I've used Repster and will continue to do so. Free boxes, shipping rates are lower, and you don't have to be Fedex certified.

You NEED A PRINTER!

Just fill out all of your info, including billing info. Uou need to use a credit or debit card because you pay Repster online. Then click on Need a Box. Select how many boxes of whatever size you need(I get 2 at a time, the middle size). After you get the boxes, fill out all of the receiver's information, select box size, fill in how much it weighs, select Priority Overnight, and click where you want to drop it off(station is the fedex hub, which is what I use). Then click Ship. This will then tell you how much the package cost to ship and will deduct payment from your credit/debit card. It will then give you a link to download and print out the shipping label.

Pack your snakes up properly, include a cool pack if necessary, tape everything up VERY well, and put the packing label in the clear envelope that you stick on top of the package(resealable).

Go to Fedex.com and find out the closest Hub or Fedex staffed location. Find out the latest drop off time for air shipments(usually 7pm, but drop off at 5-6pm just in case). I drop off at 6pm so the snake isn't in the box too long and exposed to the elements(friggin hot texas weather!). I believe you have to drop snakes and live animals off at the hub, but I could be wrong. This is what I was told by UPS.

Oh and the Tracking # is on the shipping label.

That should be it!

Do everything through Repster, or they will not send you anymore boxes.
