OscarBoy Posted February 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 well they are so big so how? like still put them in bags or what because they would'nt be able to turn around in the bags if you know what i mean... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 They will be hard to ship at this size but basically it just equates to big fish use big bags and big polybox (and probably big $$ to send it) you have to take more care and ensure they are double bagged etc due to their size.

ryanjury Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Like I said just package them well, to ship those fish I would say courier would be $24 using nzpost which is who I mainly use or I use nzcouriers.. It is a bigger risk shipping larger fish which is why I try and sell fish smaller so they don't have the risk of shipping. Go in and buy some big bags double bag them stick them in the box with a heap of newspaper no need for a heatpad in this weather and then overnight courier them..

OscarBoy Posted February 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 oh so a pecice of a cake ina way? bags were from? *it's my first time shipping* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 whats the best couriour? Depends where its going and what it weighs. Sometimes NZPost is cheaper if its rural delivery. Water weighs 1kg per 1L, so find three bags that are big enough, work out how much water you need to put in each one, add a bit for the box etc...
