FAQ
What You Need to Know
Transporting fresh or frozen fish or game requires having a plan in place to ensure you have all of the packaging materials required and a good understanding of the amount of time that will be required to get your fish or game to your destination.
Shipping Tips
The quality of how your product arrives at your destination is solely based on how well you clean, filet, vacuum pack, freeze and pack your product in an approved Airline Shipping box that meets the duration for your travel time. - Visit Fish Alaska online Tips for Correctly Packaging and Transporting your fish and Game.
TRY Fold 50 lb. Airline Shipping Box, FB5 and AS2 Foam Box Kits, Wax Boxes, Plastic Coolers
- Are you shipping fresh or frozen fish or game
- Will your fish or game be cut to size, or will it be large pieces or smaller fillets?
- Will your product be vacuum-packed and frozen or shipped as fresh
- What is the duration of time it will take to get your product to your destination?
- Are you driving or flying, and if flying, does the airline have any restrictions for containers and refrigerants like dry ice?
Once you can provide the answers to these questions, then you should be able to confirm what type of container you plan to use. Most retailers offer these boxes as well as most of the fishing and hunting lodges.
If you are transporting frozen vacuum-packed product, you will want to make sure to fill your box complete to remove any air in the box, which will allow your frozen product to remain frozen for a longer duration of time
If you are transporting fresh product and want to keep it at refrigerator temperature, you should source gel ice or dry ice. When applying either of these two products, you will want to put some refrigerant on the bottom of the cooler, then your fresh product, then more refrigerant. This will create a circular motion of coolant around your product. Remember to add extra dunnage if necessary to remove all the air from inside the box.
I hope these tips will help you with your packaging problems.
The foil/bubble bag combo material is designed to reflect light, heat and cold elements. The air/bubble material provides conductive insulation, and when combined with the foil layer, it enhances the insulation properties.
