Here are my costs on shipping my dip and pack animals from RSA to my taxidermist here in Texas. Trophy Solutions in Polokwane did the D&P. $1,846. They also do taxidermy there, but I opted for here. Great communication and they were awesome dealing with my wishy washyness. Their preferred shipper is Condor Cargo, but they were more expensive than Badger Cargo. BC was recommended by @Hyde Hunter. Thanks! $1,126.
My taxidermist, Brendon Wood/Safari Life Taxidermy, has a good relationship with Pro Cargo in Houston. After it cleared customs, they shipped the crate to Hammack’s Tannery in Kerrville, where Brendon was picking it up today. $1,305
FYI, John and Cindi Rulon are no longer with PC. Communication was great there also.
I wired $$ to TS because of their credit card fees. I used my cc with Badger and ProCargo as they didn’t charge fees.
Total-$4,277.
Now to sack up and start paying on the taxidermy bill. :cry:
Hope this helps!
