How To Courier

[armaggedonx]

How do you arrange a courier to pick up a livestock item for you and deliver it to you? (by TNT or Royal Mial) It says livesock delivery nowhere on its webiste. Its for an exotic mammal from down south of Britain.

Cheers,

Parcel force also come to your door to pick up parcels but they technically do not do live animals. However, I have had fish delivered by Royal Mail/Parcel force on guaranteed next day parcel and the poly box had "fragile" and "this way up" stickers all over it. You will not get a refund should they die but if they are properly packaged then nothing should happen to them.

Also ask TNT if they can transport fish for you. They state they can deliver giant pandas under their "special handling" section so I would imagine a box of fish would be no problem.

Sorry, I assumed it was for fish.
There are a lot of fluffy handlers out their. Google for pet relocation, stuff like cats and dogs. Standard couriers will be out, fish is about as far as I would go with Royal Mail/Parcel force.
You are going to need a specialist handler for a large fluffy like a skunk, the other two links fit the bill (along with TNT) but there are dozens of pet relocating companies. We looked at them because I used to move a lot with the RAF and doing that with a dog and fish is hard work without help, never got round to using companies for help though as family always came through.

You are welcome and good luck.
