How uShip Works
Bought two puppies from Wales, needed them delivered to Middlesbrough, within 2 days of contacting this company the puppies were safely at their new home, would use this company again if I ever needed to, fantastic.

using uShip was the best thing I chose to find transportation of our new dog we live in wales and our dog was in surrey and we didn't fancy the drive so uShip made the whole process so easy and everything was sorted out in a few days and the service provider was 1st class I would definitely use uShip again.

Transporting Animals Safely

Animal Transport

Animal transport requires special care to safely transport a pet or livestock. With animal shipping the safety and comfort of the animal is the highest priority. You should take care and be diligent to choose a qualified carrier that can safely and securely transport your animals.


Transporting Livestock

Before you transport livestock, make sure that you have all necessary paperwork and permissions to transport the animals. If you are using your own trailer, confirm that is it in good working condition, as well as being clean and safe for the animals. Make sure that your livestock is properly protected from the weather it may encounter during transport. Confirm that your carrier has the necessary experience to deal with any problems or special circumstances that may occur during transport


Bird transport

Travelling can be stressful for any animal, but birds can be especially sensitive. The best environment for a bird to travel in is a dark quiet box. Ensure that there is proper ventilation for your bird, or purchase a specialty pet carrier. The bird shouldn’t have too much room to move about or flap its wings. Make sure to remove any perches or toys that move around from the box or carrier to prevent any injury during the trip. For longer trips, ensure that the bird has enough food and water for the duration, and will be fed regularly.


Reptile Transport

Most reptiles can be transported in a cat or dog carrier, provided they are not smaller than the mesh door. The most important part of transporting a reptile is that it is kept at the right temperature. A hot water pack or an ice pack wrapped in a towel can provide temperature adjustments for 1-2 hours in most cases. The simplest way of maintaining temperature is to bring the reptile in the cabin during transport and keep the AC or heat at a constant temperature. If you are transporting many reptiles, you should consider using a temperature controlled lorry.


Whatever kind of animal you are transporting, make sure that your carrier understands if the animal will have special needs and is prepared and qualified to meet them. Make sure you confirm the carrier’s qualifications and references, to choose a transporter that will get your animal delivered safely.
