Can you ship reptiles without being fed ex certified?

[joepythons]

Yes you sure can ship reptiles through FedEx without being certified. I'm sure I am going to get yelled at for saying this though...

But, I have done it LOTS of times with no problems at all.

Its lazy people like yourself that are going to cause us all problems in the near future.STOP BEING A LAZY BUM AND GET CERTIFIED!

The title says it all, can live reptiles be shipped fed ex priority overnight without being fed ex certified? Also what are the exact benefits of being fed ex certified? In other words, is it really worth it to become fed ex certified??

Thanks

This is like saying: "Yeah, you can run stop signs, I've done it tons without getting a ticket or into an accident."

As others have said, please stop shipping without being certified. I don't want irresponsible people like you, to ruin it for people like me and others. Get certified. It's free to do and relatively easy. If you have a good rep you could get it done in two weeks.

Same for the OP, just do it. Why risk it for yourself and others, when it takes virtually nothing to get certified.

I tried to get certified years ago but it was not easy when I tried. You had to have a store front or something. I stopped using Fedex once ShipYourReptiles came a long, but they have problems too. I also haven't had to ship anything in a while. I have had stuff shipped to me though and I know not all of them were certified. Yes it is not legal but technically you CAN.

So, what does it take to get certified now a days?

Getting certified is very easy, all it takes is time, just do it and get it over with, seriously.

It's the only stickied thread in this entire sub forum.

The hardest part is simply getting a hold of your FEDEX Rep, and even then it isn't hard it just takes patience and couple of phone calls to actually get them to call you. After that you just get a label from FEDEX and send in a test package, after you pass that then they send you some paperwork to fill out and after they get that and process it they will give you some additional information and you're set.

It's very easy, seriously.

You no longer have an account Rep its been changed.They now have a team that can handle everything when ever you call them.

When did they change that? Because I literally just did this last month.
