I've had two snakes couriered by TNT from breeders down south in the past, and they've arrived safe, well and on time. Never used Reptile Taxi, but I hear the name bandied about a lot.

Just an idea, how about one of the pet bird couriers ?

They have heated vans and may be worth a look at.

I was looking into setting up an aviary a short while ago and I got the impression that bird couriers were more numerous that for reptiles.

You have nothing to lose Very Happy

Be warned though if you search this site ....Bird keepers have got to be the biggest bunch of tight arses I have ever heard of. They would travel an extra 25 miles by bus to save a fiver on bird food. Shocked
