Trust only a Horizon designed container.
We have 18 years of experience in keeping your
birds safe, healthy,
and strong while in the hands of the USPS and FedEx. |
This site is for
Natural Environmentally-Secure
Transporters (N.E.S.T.s)
(containers with filters)
for shipping ALL
birds thru the USPS Express Mail
Service.
Horizon makes shipping boxes for live birds. That's it. That's
all we do, but we do it great! Horizon was solely responsible for getting the
USPS to start mailing live birds back in 1989. Anything was better than air
cargo, and cheaper! We also helped pushed FedEx to accept live birds for the
USPS in late 2006 just before the USPS was about to turn it off, helping
hundreds of small businesses stay in business. We remain dedicated to being your
voice in mailing live birds thru the USPS.

The Post Office requires filters for
all birds!

New
FedEx/UPS/DHL Rules & Rates
Notice: The USPS
has updated the rules and regulations for mailing all birds thru Express
Mail in Environmentally-Secure, filtered containers to now include
chickens. Horizon has been producing USPS approved Environmentally-Secure,
filtered containers for birds since 1990, and has been producing chicken
shippers without filters, aka PetPorts, since 1997.
The only thing that has changed for us is that they now all must
include the filters.
Follow this link for additional information and for official
USPS approved shipping containers for chickens.

Update on shipping live birds
|
Horizon is the largest developer and manufacturer of universally approved, environmentally-secure shipping containers for live birds, designed primarily for the U.S.
Post Office's Express Mail
service.
All of our shippers meet and exceed all the ASTM Project 1A standards and have
always gone the extra mile to have all our containers officially approved by USPS
headquarters. No other manufacturer of shipping containers can make this claim.
