We care about what we transport. That's why all shipping is done by hand.
We monitor the temperature of our containers and provide a report on delivery.
We make use of electric vehicles wherever possible to minimise our carbon footprint.
We are based in Scotland but ship to the rest of the UK, Europe and the world.
Our shippers are fully validated and conform to IATA regulations.
We hold third party agreements with most ART clinics across the UK.
We can liaise directly with the clinics to make things as simple as possible.
We have a tried and tested quality management system in place to ensure we deliver.
We ship worldwide and with over 100 journeys completed - and 100% five-star reviews - we're tried and tested at what we do.

Life on Ice was the best courier we could have chosen, highly recommend. Not only were they efficient, on time with delivery and a great price, but we were kept in the loop constantly in terms of communication between the labs and dates for transportation...
Read moreIt can be really daunting selecting a courier for your previous cargo but Bob made us feel really safe and secure. Bob kept in regular contact with me via calls and text and kept us updated throughout the whole process. Thanks so much Bob!
Read moreTrying to chose a courier that would transfer frozen sperm from Southampton to Bristol proved to be another very stressful experience of an already tense process, until we found Life on Ice. We found Bob to be a "breath of fresh air" as they understood and were sympathetic to what we were hoping to achieve...
Read moreFantastic, professional but also very personable and down to earth. Transported my embryos from Manchester to Edinburgh with minimal hassle and kept well informed on progress throughout. So glad I chose Life on Ice.
Bob's communication was always prompt and professional and even though we had a bit of a nightmare with paperwork at both ends nothing fazed him and he got the job done quickly, courteously and at a reasonable price...
Read moreHad an excellent experience with Bob and team. From initial contact through to completion, communication was good and we were well briefed on what would happen when.... The experience was very personal which is what you get with a smaller company and you can tell they care.
Read moreWe used Life on Ice to transport sperm from Manchester to Leeds. Bob was quick to respond to our emails, and was very professional and sensitive when asking for updates on a potentially delicate procedure. They communicated with the clinics directly, so I had little involvement here, which was a welcome change! I would use Life on Ice again.
Read moreI used Life on Ice to transfer my embryo from Edinburgh to Aberdeen. Bob was extremely professional, quick to come back with a very competitive quote and everything was extremely easy to book. The paperwork was simple and next thing I knew my embryo had been delivered safely to Aberdeen with a confirmation text from Bob...
Read moreI used Life on Ice to transfer my eggs between clinics. I found the service efficient and simple. Bob kept me informed throughout. All in all very happy with the service.
