Shipping Information
We ship our animals using FedEx
as our delivery service. Since it is very important that
live animals are shipped in the most expedient way possible,
all orders are shipped Monday through Wednesday next day
overnight* express
delivery.
*EXCEPTION to overnight shipping: If
you live in a very rural or remote area your order may
take TWO
FULL DAYS to arrive.
Even though you will be paying an overnight charge, due to
remoteness or inaccessibility, next day shipping really
means second day shipping. This
is very important to consider because our live guarantee
of delivery DOES NOT APPLY under those circumstances
and ReptilesNCritters.com will NOT BE HELD LIABLE for
animals that are lost as a result of longer second day shipping. It
may be in the best interests of your animals to ship your
package to an authorized FedEx shipping facility for customer
pickup. How can I tell if I live in an area that does not
benefit from next day shipping? Please click
here to go to
the FedEx estimated shipping page to see if your area qualifies
for true next day shipping. On FedEx's shipping estimator
page input 76011 as the originator zip code and then fill
in your zip code. Leave the "No. of packeges" box
set to one and then select 1 pound as the shipping weight
while checking the "Ship to a residence" checkbox.
Select "Schedule a
Pickup" from the "Pickup/Dropoff" select bar. Click
the button
"Get detailed quote." On the next page select "FedEx
Box"
from the "Package Type" menu bar and then click "Continue."
The final results page will tell you on what date your order
will arrive.
If you need to schedule a delivery other than the schedule provided in the table
below you will need to speak with us personally at 347-587-3277 or email
us.

2. While we try to keep our web site updated with our current stock of reptiles
at all times, there will be occasions when we will run out of some
animals unexpectedly. We will inform you promptly if there is any order that
cannot be filled.
United States Shipping

your order is placed close to the weekend we will delay shipping
until the following Monday. As a general rule, orders received
Monday through Wednesday afternoon will ship the next day for
overnight delivery the following day. Orders placed Thursday
afternoon (after 2PM) through Sunday will ship the following
Monday but sometimes as late as Tuesday.
