Went to my taxidermist today (Dan and Becky Verrips in Adkins, TX whom I have used for year and are awesome) to pick up back hides and curios I had shipped from SA from my 2018 trip to Dries Visser. They did an awesome job and everything (including multiple curios we bought at Campanos in Joberg-many were fragile) got here safe and sound. Thumbs up to Swift Dip (Antonie and Natasha Lotter) for a great job! If you go to SA I would highly recommend them for your Dip and Pack!

I have used SwiftDip on multiple trips and have visited their facility in RSA. Excellent operation and I have always been pleased with their services!

And price?

I have never had an issue with ship and dip, either in SA or Zim, but I think the prices have gotten out of hand (at least in Zim).

Not sure who did my dip and pack on my first two Zim trips, but yes, it was expensive, and the job they did sucked big time.
Third Zim trip my PH recommended TCI (Trophy Consultants International). Great job packing and reasonable IMHO. I tried to use them for my SA trip but they don't work in SA.
Besides my skulls, horns, capes, etc. I had the backhides tanned in SA (cheaper than US and less weight to ship) plus my wife was with me on the SA trip and we went to Campanos to shop in Joburg our last full day there (great stuff and awesome prices) so we had almost as much stuff we bought as we did trophies. Everything arrived safe and sound. Cost was very fair IMHO.
