Purolator, UPS and Fedex will not ship anything alive? Since when!

[whatcaneyedo]

I was shocked today when I went to Purolator, then UPS and then Fedex to be told that none of them are willing to ship 'live tropical fish'! Since when? I've received 3 packages within the last few years by Purolator and UPS that contained coral. I guess the sellers just kept their mouths shut and didnt say what they were shipping?

I ended up sending my two packages with Greyhound.

Edit: Maybe this should have been posted in the Lounge I'm not sure.

That's been their policy for awhile.
The first time I shipped by purolater I had "Live fish" written in big red letters on the box and the guy told me they don't ship anything live... He then helped me black out the live fish part and I wrote in "fragile instead :lol:

Yeah that sucks, I can't blame them for it thought. One puppy shipping mishap and your business could be ruined. :mrgreen: lol j/k
