Packing List Template and Price List

This packing list template and price list are specifically for current clients of Bayou Bones and Tan LLC. If you want to send your hides to our shop, please contact The ROOKIE at 337-717-9550 to inquire about space availability. Please Note: We do not service the public, we only work with Taxidermists. If you want The ROOKIE to work on your hides, please have your taxidermist contact him at the number above. If you send hides to us without speaking to the rookie and confirming space availability, we will charge you shipping and then send it back to you!!
A packing list is mandatory for the shipment of any hides WITH a date and the name of your company on the packing list. The date is extremely important to put on your packing list as well as on the box itself. By doing this, you can help us maintain an accurate inventory of orders. Additionally putting the date on the packing list and box also helps us maintain and maybe even improve your turn around time. If you do not send your boxes with a packing list, I will charge you shipping and then send your hides back to you! 
It doesn't have to be our packing list as long as the packing list you send has a DATE, company name, quantity, species, and whether it is a cape, 1/2 life-size, life-size, or a soft tan.

Prices are subject to change. 
As always thank you so much for choosing Bayou Bones and Tan LLC to entrust with your hides. We value your trust and support so much and look forward to providing you with exceptional work and a great turn around time.
