WE GUARANTEE LIVE ARRIVAL IF THE FOLLOWING SHIPMENT METHODS ARE USED. YOU MAY SELECT A CHEAPER METHOD LIKE USPS NEXT DAY BUT WE FIND THIS TO BE A 50-50 PROPOSITION AND SO WE CAN NOT ASSURE LIVE ARRIVAL.

THERE IS A $100 MINIMUM ON FISH ORDERS, $20 ON PLANTS, AND $15 ON BOOKS.

FISH ARE SENT FEDEX NEXT DAY OR AIRPORT TO AIRPORT VIA CONTINENTAL QUICK PACK OR NORTHWEST VIP SERVICE FOR ALL SHIPMENTS UNDER 50 LBS. COST IS APPROXIMATELY $70 PER BOX FOR THE AIRPORT SERVICE (UP TO AROUND 25LBS , ABOUT $80- $85 FOR 25-50LBS.)AND CAN USUALLY BE PICKED UP QUICKLY AFTER FLIGHT ARRIVAL IN THE PASSENGER TERMINAL. FEDEX IS WEIGHT AND VOLUME DEPENDENT.

YOU CAN OPT FOR REGULAR AIR CARGO AT ABOUT $45 TO $60 PER BOX BUT THIS MUST BE PICKED UP AT THE CARGO FACILITY FOR YOUR CARRIER AND IS USUALLY NOT AVAILABLE FOR AT LEAST 2 HOURS AFTER FLIGHT ARRIVAL AND MAY REQUIRE SOME WAIT TIME, IT IS THE BEST METHOD IF YOU ARE DOING A GROUP ORDER WITH MORE THAN 1 BOX AS COSTS PER BOX WILL GO DOWN.

PLANTS CAN BE SENT USPS 2ND DAY AT ABOUT $5 PER SMALL BOX AND BOOKS ARE ABOUT THE SAME AMOUNT WITH ABOUT 4 DAY ARRIVAL TIME.
