How would I ship 10 pounds of frozen shrimp from AZ to NY?

Question

Would it be expensive?

Answer 1

Yes, it would be expensive.

Dry Ice = ???
Shipping Cost approx $22 for priority mail (2 to 3 days) Phoenix to NYC. $42 for express mail (Next day)

So you're looking at a minimum of $25, not including dry ice. Also, you would need to ask if the US postal service would ship the shrimp.

I would imagine using FedEx or UPS would be more expensive.

Answer 2

Why would you want to? With the cost of shipping food with dry ice, you could just buy the shrimp in NY and spend less money. I can't imagine there is something special about AZ shrimp that you can't get in NY.

Answer 3

You can pack it in a cooler with regular ice and picked inside a box and ship it over night (which is usually costlier because of the weight) and can be messy on the other end. Best way is to purchase shipping materials to use dry ice. Some places sell it bagged

Answer 4

it would be expensive because you'd have to second day air it at least. Your best bet is to buy a styrofoam cooler and some gel packs. put the shrimp into a gel pak cocoon and ship. I'd personally go overnight.

Answer 5

On dry ice using overnight shipping.

The price to ship would probably be equal to or more than what you paid for the shrimp

Answer 6

Use a cardboard box within a box and some dry ice in a plastic bag. Or use a small disposable cooler with dry ice.
Shipping wont be cheap. I sugest you go on line and find a company that already does this, like Buffalo foods .com

Answer 7

Hi,I would look up a refrigerated truck or air line service.I would go with the air lines ,they could pick the shrimp up at the air port.The shrimp must be very special.Good Luck.
