Courier Freight for Filmreels

[Shawn The Farmer]

was wondering if any of you might have contacts for courier & freight services of film negatives to Europe and back (rushes)

courier has to know how to handle film / have experience in transporting film (customs) / 100% reliability / quick turn around

thanks in advance!

FedEX or DHL with special label instructions.
"Unprocessed film, DO NOT OPEN"

Add insurance coverage or declare items to be expensive.
X-rays these days are film safe.
Pack your films in the original film cans for 400ft rolls, then tape it up, and put them into ziplock bags for added vapour or moisture protection.

Best is to call up your lab in Europe and ask how other customers send their films to them safely. :thumbsup:
