How Axolotls Are Shipped

Axolotls are shipped using a courier. Shipments can only be sent out Monday through Wednesday to avoid them being held in a facility over the weekend due to courier delays. You may request to send the package out on a day that is not between Monday through Wednesday. Note that this will void our DOA policy. When the package arrives, the courier will bring the package directly to your door for you to sign. If by chance you miss the courier, the package will be brought back to the closest post office for you to pick up. You must then pick up the package with a valid piece of government ID. Please ensure you are checking the tracking provided to ensure you are available when the courier arrives.
