Shipping Question!!

So I have a snake that I paid for a bit over a month ago now. The next few days are very warm (mid 40's at night!) and therefore.. I can get her finally!

But, there's a snag.
Turns out technically Fedex only ships business to business for live animals, and the guy I'm getting the snake from has been shipping for years now with fedex, and one of his customers called and "asked fedex to keep the snake warm for him" at a pick up location, He got red flagged for it (Youd think they'd notice the huge live reptile labels?!) and now he cant ship residential, because TECHNICALLY he wasnt supposed to be doing it.

I cant have it shipped to a business location because I work at a gym, and don't have a shipping box there, nor would they be happy with me sitting there waiting for a snake when I'm not working, lol!

Is this a rule that fedex just always ignores.. or are you guys using a different method than we don't know about? We're trying to figure out how to get the snake to me legally and safely!

thanks guys.. any help would be much appreciated!


if you need motivation.. look how cute she is!!
