Default What is the general standard of packagaing for frozen food like?

Since having a snake I've been ordering frozen mice online. I have only used 2 online stores, one good experience one bad.

I was wondering what kind of packaging you would expect the frozen food to arrive in if you ordered online? and what stores people have found to be good.

Thanks

Normally a all sent in a poly box, packed in newspaper and a good few icepacks.
Have been using TSM recently, and very impressed by quality and service

see thats what i would have thought (and did get from one store.) But one I have recently used sent the mice in a plastic bag wrapped in a bit of bubblewrap at the bottom of the box with everything else in! with no markings on the box or anything. Someone else in the house took the order in me for me and was unaware it was the one with the mice in and it got left for hours before i realised

I use honeybrook, and a man comes and knocks on my door, i then go to the van which is a giant freezer and he gives me big ol bags of frozen rodents and all the neighbours look at me funny because they get ocado vans and i get the rodents lol. Very happy with honeybrook i must say though, use another well known company before and they were just past naff.
