ups sample box first?

So I thought I'd check ups too for shipping since I keep reading everyone likes them, and under the live animal section it said you had to submit a sample box like fedex does. Is this a new thing? I like that they have a next day by 8:30 a.m. deal.

That's interesting. I've never had to put a sample box together for them.

Fed X Actually sent someone to my house to inspect it inside and out instead of me sending it in.

Actually you don't have to pay for shipping. You can bill them and the lab will foot the bill...

UPS as far as I know doesn't have that protocol. Until recently, I had been using them nearly exclusively for live animal shipments and the like...
