I'm trying to work it the other way, shipping plants, fish and freshwater
crusteaceans from sources in Singapore, Thailand, japan and HK into the US
and Canada for sale. On a small scale the postal service works OK but, i
need to find a way to economically ship large amounts into the US. Fed Ex
will do it but only by the container and only airport to airport. A small 20
ft container will hold about 100 styroboxes with close to US$200,000 worth
of plants and fish. If I can line up the wholesalers I can ship just about
anything.
