Missouri hunter here who went on first South Africa hunt in June of this year. We had an amazing trip and will be returning!!

Question is who do you recommend to help clear trophies (if it is needed) and where should I have them sent to?
I am located 1 1/2 hours from St Louis airport but not sure if they can clear there?

Any help or tips are greatly appreciated!!

List of animals below

Kudu Shoulder Mount
Warthog Euro
Impala Euro
Zebra Rug
Zebra Pillows And Purse (for the wife) :LOL:
Duiker Full Mount
Baboon Euro
 
Another Missouri hunter here closer to the St. Louis area. Myself and Doug3006 have always used Coppersmith. We had items shipped to the Chicago location to clear customs and from there to our taxidermist in the St. Louis county. Since your items are finished they could go from the Chicago location to you. I have never had an issue with items being lost or damaged but the price can be an issue. I’m not sure how there price compares to others, we chose them for there good reputation. Good luck.
 
Because of the warthog and baboon your shipment needs to go to a USDA certified shop or location, even with finished products. This is once they have cleared customs.
