I've never had a problem with bus depot here. The lady that works there once phoned me on a sunday morn to tell me my shipment came in and she would wait there until I came and got it. Gotta love small towns

My last two orders through greyhound were both lost. Thankfully they arrived on the second day and most of the items survived. One item went through town and the other was put in a cargo crate even though it had a rush live goods on it. I do not think I will trust Greyhound again with live goods.

Sorry to hear about your lost order. One reason JL hates to deal with Greyhound. They really encourage the air method for all live goods but I know that is very expensive too.
A friend of mine is putting in a dry order soon so I will tag on a few things with that. He once did the live order through them on the bus and never again. Everything was dead, no fault of JL as they did an awesome job of packing everything but the bus man handles the live goods and it really is a risk with them. I plan on stopping there for my first time when we are coming home from holidays and if I see anything I will pick it up then. I sure hope that you don't loose everything, keep us posted and take your time acclimatizing them when you do get them Good luck.....Amy

being the guy who packs these orders up and delivers them either to the airport or to greyhound for J&L, i get to see first hand. i would have to say if you are gonna spend the money for a live order to be shipped. its worth it to pay the little bit extra for air shipment if you can. I am sorry for your loss.

Unfortunately, Air wont work for small cities/Towns like were in. Tgouejon and I are in the same area/situation, and still over an hr drive to the closest shipping airport... for me, 45min longer for him
 but dude, if you do go down let me know. may be interested in some more frags or something. looking for somehting for my Clowns to hopefully host in. But not a BTA

monday at 12:45 and greyhound still doesnt know where they are. gettin more than a little ****ed now. like bandit said air is just too much of a drive to be useful its either williams lake or kamloops. but im starting to wonder if anybody successfully uses loomis, purolator or DHL and if so are the cost relativaly fair.
