Have already started collecting the footage for one on how to ship fur. Especially for new shippers. Detailing how to pack your fur and including castor shipments.

Gibb, I have a question for you. Why has nafa decided to do the drumming in Stoughton this year then ship to Toronto? Why is our fur not being drummed in Toronto so it looks it's best before they are graded? I really hate the thought of my fur being on the bottom of the pile in the truck on the ride north. Please advise.

Coon would be a popular choice due to the volume of coon trappers around the country

A couple of things to keep in mind, drumming cleans the fur so where they drum is not as important as that they drum, next when they ship them it is in large boxes and not fur bags roughly 100 per box. The flattening effect is not like you would have in fur bags driving along on a pickup route. The boxes go on pallets, into a transport truck.

Great video Gibb , thought I sent a lot of fur that direction. That building makes everything look less. Lots of education for the unknowing!
