How Do You Receive Feeder Shipments?
Hello all,
I've been wanting to order feeders from somewhere (probably rodentpro unless I can find somewhere else I like better) but my big problem is having them shipped. I work all day and dont get home until after 6. I live in an apartment so the way packages work is if I'm not home, the courier takes the package to the office of the complex, which ironically enough, closes at 6. I thought about having them delivered to my office but my boss is really squeamish and I'm afraid if she got to the package and signed it first, then either A. looked at it and it said "rodentpro" or B. opened it then she would be really freaked out and mad. There is a rodent place only a couple hours from here we considered driving to (I live in the Atlanta area) but their prices were higher for what I needed than what it cost me to get MORE than what I needed plus shipping from rodentpro, just for me to go pick up the order! I'm just wondering how yall get your shipments if you're at work? We're considering renting a mailboxes etc. P.O. box so that we could have it delivered there and then come pick it up right after work or something. We're paying about $20-30 a week right now buying rodents for everybody locally, and we end up driving around town for a couple of hours trying to find places that have the various sizes we need, not to mention nobody carries medium rats or rat pinks, so we're always having to buy two small rats and small mice instead. I'm going nuts! Any suggestions?

Got any friends/neighbors or family that would accept the package? You might have them receive it, just untill you get off work..

We only have 4 people in this office, we get packages in everybody's name all day long - nobody pays attention to the name anymore since we all handle all the accounts.

I have my rats shipped in by Greyhound bus. they hold them at the terminal until i get a chance to go pick them up. It is much cheaper then Fedex too.

Not rude at all. I'd be glad to help. I work from home and it's never a problem to receive packages here. I have freezer space too ...just order them and have them shipped to...
