I need to find something along the lines of this: http://www.roshgo.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=01104 I've ordered some online, but I need to purchase at least one locally TOMORROW. Does anybody have any idea where to get something like that in town? Thanks. 11/12/2009 10:02:39 PM |

Can't you use normal ice packs? Just buy them at like Wal-mart. 11/12/2009 10:06:40 PM |

That's the backup plan, although I'd like to get something intended for shipping (i.e. cheaper, disposable). 11/12/2009 10:11:12 PM |

My dad's veterinary office always had a ton of them that different drugs were shipped in...I wonder if you could go to a local vet office and offer to buy some 11/13/2009 1:46:49 PM |

i usually call my vet for their packing supplies.
they usually throw them away. the gel ice packs and packing peanuts.
they would be more likely to give you the supplies if you were a customer.
i've saved a TON on money that way.

depending on what you're shipping, dry ice may be too cold
generally, i ship on dry ice if i want something to stay frozen but use ice/ice packs for 'refrigerated' 11/13/2009 3:57:47 PM |

YOU CANNOT SHIP DRY ICE WITH OUT A DANGEROUS GOODS SHIPPING PERMIT
or rather doing so is extremely dangerous
Shipments containing dry ice must carry a Class 9 DOT miscellaneous hazardous material warning label, and must be clearly marked "Carbon Dioxide Solid, UN1845" or "Dry Ice, UN1845". With 5 pounds of dry ice, the package would need to be delivered within 24 hours

For what it's worth, I broke down and went into Wal-Mart and found them after about thirty minutes. 11/17/2009 1:38:02 PM |
