CUSTOMER SERVICE will contact you to confirm your delivery date once your order is processed.
If there are any updates to your koi, you will be contacted before the shipping date.
Your shipping fee will be sent separately, after your koi has been prepared.
Please see the instructions in steps 6 and 7 for more information about processing your order and receiving your koi.
SHIPPING IS NON-REFUNDABLE and subject to CREDIT ONLY, based on cancelled orders or UPS Claim
IMPORTANT: All koi shipments need 5–10 days notice prior to shipping in order to stop their feeding and prepare your koi for a safe journey.

Kodama Koi Shipping Calculator – https://www.kodamakoifarm.com/shipping-calculator/
Kodama Koi Farm has been shipping koi for many years and has learned what works best for the safe delivery of your koi. The shipping formula is not absolute.
However, when packing koi, Kodama Koi Farm takes into consideration:
-
The condition of the koi
-
Water temperature
-
Delivery time
Kodama Koi Farm reserves the right to determine how many koi can be shipped in a box. Our 24 hour koi health guarantee is based on our farm’s packing recommendation for your shipment. Any request to alter the shipping/packing recommendation requires a waiver of the 24 hour koi health guarantee to be sent to Kodama Koi Farm via E-mail.

UPS DELIVERY (STANDARD)
UPS ships directly to your door! Koi are shipped from Hawaii via UPS Next Day Air.
Depending on your local UPS driver, delivery usually arrives by 12:00 – 3:00 pm. Please check the estimate arrival time with UPS by calling 1-800-PickUPS.
You will also receive your tracking number via email from UPS directly on the day your koi ships.
SATURDAY UPS DELIVERY
There is an additional fee of $25.00 per box for Saturday deliveries.
Please note: The Saturday delivery option is not available in all areas. Be aware that UPS hours and operations vary on the weekend. This may cause a shipping delay may result in your koi not arriving until Monday. Because of this possibility, we highly recommend that you purchase insurance for these deliveries.
KOI INSURANCE (RECOMMENDED)
We now offer insurance on all shipments for an additional fee. At just 6% per $100 of your koi’s value
We highly recommend insurance for orders $500+ to cover the additional costs* in case of a delay. (* = koi value only)
For example, if you buy a koi at $500, you can insure that koi for just $30!
