So I have some guy who (on another forum) and he asked if I was willing to ship some coral to him (who knew people wanted kenya trees) So I told him I'd be willing to give him some if he'd be willing to pay for shipping. He said great. My question is what do I really need to do to ship the stuff? Up north?

Uhh a styro box or a small lunch type cooler maybe one or two heater packs and some peanuts so the trees dont slide around to much in the cooler during the trip

i heard kenya trees dont survive well if travel long...(not sure).

double bags, styro box, heat or cold packs if needed. and place it tight to the minimum movement when ship.

I have shipped plenty of times and never lost anything.

I have small long bags which I fill with water and throw the frag in. No air and just triple bag with knots on each bag.

Stryofoam box and newspaper to keep it from being tossed around.

Ship overnight early delivery if possible and the whole heat/cold pack is a bit over rated in most cases.
