Are there any courier services that can deliver chemical reagents?
Thread Content
I often need to send some chemical reagents by courier, but I really can’t find a service that will handle such shipments; I have to find workarounds secretly. Does anyone know of a courier service that can do this?
I searched online and saw quite a few. Where are you?
We use Shentong Express; it seems that shipping is possible. I’m not sure, so you might want to check with them.
It seems that liquids can just not be transported by air, right?
Generally, the chemical reagents that are purchased cannot be delivered by others; Shentong Express is used for delivery, as it’s fast and delivers the items straight to the graduate school building
Shentong is fine, but it’s best to ask about the local Shentong option in your area. Can it be mailed
I searched online and saw quite a few.
Shentong is okay; Zojizhong also seems to work fine
The proper way is through the postal service’s chemical mailing department, but the cost is relatively high. If you want to save some money, you can fill the packaging bottle a bit more (provided that your items remain stable under normal temperatures and vibrations), then add cushioning material (foam, newspaper, etc.), and secure it all from the outside with wooden blocks; this way you can use courier services like Shentong. It’s purely a matter of individual experience~:lol
