How to request shipping info for reptile deliveries

Confirming buyers‘ contact details and preferred delivery dates is essential for managing reptile shipments—not only for logistics but also for the health and safety of the animals. To improve reptile shipping coordination, Palmstreet has introduced the Request for Reptile Shipping Info—an effective tool designed to make delivery coordination faster and more reliable.

This feature reduces the manual effort involved in collecting delivery details, allowing sellers to focus more on customer service and business growth—and less on back-and-forth messaging.

Key Benefits for Reptile Sellers

• Reduces DM volume and manual effort in gathering critical shipping information
