Alright guys, I'm finally going to send off my test package to get Fedex approved to ship reptiles. Here's a pic of the box so far:



I will tape the unopened heat pack to the styrofoam lid.. poke some holes in the deli cup, and perhaps tape around the lid of the cup.. should I do that?

When I close the box, should I just use normal packing tape and tape around each seam? I'll write 'live harmless reptile' on each side like you're supposed to, but do I need to make up a number and species of reptile that's 'inside'? (ie 1.0 ball python) That would kind of ruin the box for future use since I am having the box returned to me..

As for overboxing.. do I just go to the fedex place and get a box from them that this one will fit inside? Then does the form (paper to the left of box in picture) go on the outside of that box, or on the reptile box? I guess I just tape it to the outside? Do I need any other labels aside from the form?

Geez, that's a lot of questions. Sorry.. but I want to do this right.
