Shipping fish in the BITTER cold east coast?

[Reposado]

Hey guys,
First off, thanks for answering my other question, about the black spots on my fish. I have been so busy I haven't even gotten a chance to take a pic.
I do appreciate the help though.

I had another question though...

What do you guys think about shipping in the east coast right now? Sub freezing temps going to cause a problem even with heatpacks? Planning on shipping a rusty from Georgia to New Jersey. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

P.S. Don't ask why Im SHIPPING a RUSTY...
It would be shipped priority, so it would be in a box, at most, 2 days.
Thanks!

you may want to hold off until the spring or summer. I have seen priority shipments sit on the tarmac for hours at a time. It basically comes down to wht kind of a mood the guys unloading the shipment are in. I remember a friend, who worked unloading planes for Fedex in Toronto telling me about how when the lunch hour came around, they covered a car full of boxes with plastic, left it on the tarmac beside the plane, went to lunch for an hour and then came back and continued to unload. :cry:

If you can, I would wait..

good luck.

or at least wait until the temps are a little warmer than they are now.
