Default Petwheels delivery, silly discount prices!

For one week only, from 3rd November until 9th, i`m offering low discount reptile and exotic delivery prices!
Transport offered for reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, inverts, birds etc. All animals are fully insured whilst in transit.

Any trip up to 60 miles @ £30
Any trip over 60 miles @ just £50, from anywhere to anywhere in mainland UK!!

These prices will stand for the whole week from 3rd-9th November but must be booked and paid for in advance. Although i will do my best to deliver on the same day as collection, animals may be boarded overnight on longer trips during which time all their needs will be met.

PM for booking and more information!

Yes but as i live in the Midlands, if i have a 30 mile trip up in Scotland i`ve got to get up there first, so it will be a 500 mile round trip for me for the £30!

If i have a trip from Devon to Inverness, and i charge £50 for it, thats around 10p a mile.....if you can get anyone to beat that i`d like to see it

I thought the way other reptile places did it was charge...

From base point (ie. your house) to Pickup, From pickup to destination, from destination, back to base.. and added up all the miles.

If you're ignoring base to pickup and destination to base... that's a ridiculously good deal

Yeah, what you see here is what you get, no base to pick-up etc, no hidden charges. You pay only for the trip your animal takes
