Importing trophies

What is the approximate shipping per mount? Or per container? How many can you get in a container? I’m assuming it’s one of those mini pod like ones? Or a full sized20 foot one?
They build crates for your trophies. It will also depend if you are having them mounted or just a dip n pack to have them done locally.

My last crate with 3 shoulder mounts, and 5 euros was around 3'x3'x5'. They know how to shoe horn them in.

Which is the preferred method for taxidermy work? Have them done there or here? Local taxidermist we were using retired. Had a 3-4 mounts done from a hunt on King Ranch. All were done by a different shop. Nothing wrong with them, just expensive compared to my old shop and a 150-200 mile drive to get them.

I have no idea the shipping cost from here to Costa Rica. I can do my research on shipping and get back with you later today.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
