[QUOTE="Packmule, post: 1497624, member: 33558"] UPS does make sure our shippers know we do not have climate control and warn them that we will pay no claim due to damage from temperature extremes. You are right that online shippers should make it clear to their shoppers that there is a risk. Fresh fruit shippers are always replacing orders due to freezing temps. But think about how expensive it would be to put heaters and coolers in every truck, trailer and plane just to handle a few items. And what happens when you have one item that needs to be kept frozen and something else that absolutely will be ruined if it freezes? And they both need to be loaded in the same trailer? The logistics are more than even UPS wants to love! [/QUOTE]
