Just trying to find out the shipping cost and how long does a shipment take for donor sperm. My wife and I are just trying to figure out planning.

@Nuggets2moms The shipping cost and timing will depend on where the vials are stored, the shipping address, and the shipping option that you choose. Just click on the Shipping tab on the Pricing page to see your options: https://cryobank.com/services/pricing/
If you are in the Los Angeles area, you can choose the local delivery option. If you are storing your vials at our New York, Palo Alto, or Cambridge locations, you may also be able to choose the local delivery option.
If this is your first shipment, I usually suggest calling Client Services at least a week before your insemination to figure out the best ship date and shipping option. We always recommend having your vials arrive at least 48 hours before your procedure. Inclement weather is the most common reason shipments get delayed and we don't want you to miss your insemination.
If you schedule your shipment far enough in advance, you can probably take advantage of the FedEx Economy option. It takes two business days and arrives by 5-7 pm. (weekends and holidays are not included in travel time). If your clinic requires you to do a morning delivery, you will have to do the FedEx Priority option which takes 1 business day and arrives by noon. Please note that we require you to schedule your shipment at least one business day before you want it to ship out and you can schedule it as far ahead as 30 days in advance.
