1. Get a free quote online—It’s always a good idea to know how much perishable shipping will cost you before you drop off your shipment. At Amerijet.com, you can get free shipping quotes 24/7. Just use the Detailed Quote form for perishable shipping, and ensure all information is correct to get the most accurate quote.
2. Pack your perishables carefully—Perishables need to be shipped in a product-approved container. You need to make sure the container you choose keeps cold air sealed in so your perishables stay cool and fresh while in transit. If you’re shipping frozen goods, you’ll want to pack them up with dry ice. If you’re sending refrigerated goods, frozen gel packs should be used.
3. Complete all required documentation—Before your shipment can be processed, you’ll need to complete some shipping documentation. An Amerijet representative will be glad to assist you with this.
4. Get your package to Amerijet—You can either drop your perishable shipment off at your nearest Amerijet shipping facilities, or you may be able to arrange for package pickup at your location.
5. Track the package online—Now that your shipment has been accepted, all you have to do is track the status of your package online. Just enter the tracking number on the Amerijet website to monitor your shipment in real time.
