I would goto the taxidermy section of this website and do some research....I think there is a company called "Dip and Pack" and a lot of people use them...they guarantee your stuff is done in like 90 days. Anyway do some research....and get a quote.
 
Ok thank you!
 
I had good luck with Swift Dip. Natasha provided excellent service and superior communications.

She personally mounted these warthog tusks for me in order that they become a "finished" trophy and I could take direct receipt from the airport of the shipment.

We used Trophy Solutions Africa, Dip and Pack, and they delivered as promised.
 
Another vote for Swift Dip. Natasha was very helpful every step of the way, including coordination of a European mount of my warthog to avoid having to ship to a USDA taxidermist.

As far as importer, I worked with Coppersmith out of Chicago - Michael Lewis was our contact there and he was very helpful as well. We had some issues with our paperwork surrounding the warthog and he was able to deal with it and correct the situation. Was worth the extra price in my opinion to have someone involved who knew what to do if something went wrong.

I also use Coppersmith as my broker here in the states - San Francisco division. Very helpful and all customs/USFWS paperwork taken care of. No problems whatsoever
 
I also use Coppersmith out of Atlanta for my broker. Forrest
 
I'm a Swift Dip guy.... ZERO issues, fast, very reasonable.
 
We just used Splitting Image Taxidermy on a recent trip to Eastern Cape and they were incredible to deal with. Fastest turnaround we've ever seen.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
