[QUOTE="Tomoran, post: 199921, member: 1152"] Hey, Emster. Congrats on the move! If it's just a 7-8 hour drive, you should be fine. What type of enclosure is it in? Try to secure the enclosure well and make sure that there is nothing in it that could fall or injure the spider. You could always pack it a bit with some moist sphagnum moss. If it's hot, make sure to have the ac on, and don't leave the spiders in the car to bake if you stop anywhere on the way. If it molts shortly before you leave, you should also be fine. I've had ones molt in their shipping tubes before without issue. It's definitely not ideal, but they are resilient little guys. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
