Shipping & Pickup

Live Animal Shipping Info

We try our best to make your purchase as easy as possible. Contact us for any questions! During the order process we offer the following dispatch-possibilities to our customers:

  • World Wide Shipping: We ship world wide. At the bottom you will find a price table providing detailed information about the amount of overnight shipping costs for a few europena countries. The countries listed there are the only ones we generally deliver to. We also do offer world wide shipping by plane on request. Write us an email and we will check prices for your country!

  • Shipping within Germany: When temperatures suit, our animals can be shipped to you by a certified pet shipping company. Within Germany the shipping costs are free above an order value of 270 €. Otherwise the shipping costs are 30 € per shipment in Germany. Within Germany we ship our snakes with GO!, a quite popular and reliable pet shipping company. The animal is shipped during night – similar to the regular express shipping. Usually it will arrive in early morning, mostly between 9 – 10 am the day after we have received your order. Considering to GO!, the parcel should arrive by 12 am at the latest. Possible shipping days are Tuesday until Friday – note that you have to receive the animal at those days. Important: We only ship our animals when successfully established a direct contact with you. Only this way we can assure our animals arrive when someone is at home to receive it – either you or a person of your trust when you are absent. Directly after receiving your payment, we make an appointment with you by telephone or e-mail.

  • Pickup: This option is by far our favourite. On the one hand it allows us to be sure the animal is received healthy, on the other hand it can be inspected by you before receipt. You will also be able to visit other interesting or related animals. Seen from the animals point of view, pickup is the safest and most comfortable option.

  • Handover in Hamm: We offer a handover in Hamm. Like with pickup, there are no additional costs when choosing this option.

  • Handover in Houten: We do not attend every Houten show, but feel free to ask for a handover at the Terraria and Snakeday shows in Houten. Maybe we could organize a handover.

  • USA / Canada Export: We export to U.S.A. and Canada several times a year. Free export from Germany to our shipper in Miami and Toronto for hatchling and yearling orders above 1500€. *Domestic shipping not included. Handover at the Toronto show is for free, as well as the pick up at our shipping partner in Miami(US) and Ontario(CAN). Live arrival from Germany to our shipper is guaranteed. *Domestic shipping (nationwide shipping) via Fed Ex Priority overnight or Delta has to be paid individually to our shipping partners. You will get a quote for that, as soon as the animals landed and the shipping partner gets in touch with you.

  • UK EXPORT: We are taking reservations.

    - 80€ export & £70 import fee per snake
    - FREE EXPORT from Germany to UK for orders over 3500€
    - We cover 20% UK import VAT

Frozen food shipping prices Europe

We ship frozen food within Europe with DPD Predict. Our shipping day for Europe-wide shipping is always Monday. Orders must be received by 10 a.m. at the latest.

How are the shipping and packaging costs calculated?

The shipping and packaging costs are calculated according to the weight of the goods per package. For every 20 kg of frozen food weight, the shipping costs of your country and €14.90 for the thermal packaging with dry ice will be charged. The shipping and packaging costs are displayed in the shopping cart.

Example calculation for a shipment of 1-20 kg frozen food to Belgium:
13,90€ shipping costs + 14,90€ packaging costs(dry ice, thermobox) = 28,80€

Example calculation for a shipment with 21-40 kg frozen food to Belgium:
2 x 13,90€ shipping costs + 2 x 14,90€ packaging costs(dry ice, thermobox) = 57,60€

Example calculation for a shipment with 41-60 kg frozen food to Belgium:
3 x 13,90€ shipping costs + 3 x 14,90€ packaging costs(dry ice, thermobox) = 86,40€

We use 9-10 kg of dry ice for Europe-wide shipping. With this amount of dry ice and our thermally insulated packaging (thick-walled, completely sealed thermal boxes with outer carton), we guarantee that the goods will remain frozen for at least 3 days (72 hours). However, neither us nor DPD is liable for longer transportation times, therefore we would like to explicitly point out that the risk lies with the recipient.

Before ordering, please use the DPD transit time calculator (Europe) to check whether your zip code is in a 2 to 3-day transport area, otherwise we advise not to place an order:
