Please note: our normal weekly shipping day is Tuesday.

FedEx
 
Our contracted, over night carrier is FedEx.  The current, flat rate, small box shipping charge is $59.00 This charge is included on your invoice. For large/heavy shipments an additional incremental fee may apply according to dimensional size and weight. This shipping service is conditional and may not be available if Vivid Reptiles considers weather conditions too hazardous to safely ship. Shipping via an overnight carrier requires the customer to be available to receive the shipment. The absolute, safest way to receive animals is to have them held for shipment pick up at your local FedEx office.

Customers will be notified well in advance of shipping. Shipments will not go out without customer confirmation. A detailed email with tracking numbers and other useful information is sent to the customer prior to shipping. Vivid Reptiles completes all the paperwork; the customer need only receive the animals.

FedEx requires that the address receiving reptiles be associated with a business. Home businesses are okay. Strange though it may be, please provide some sort of business name with the address submitted on the shipping form.
