Snail Shipment: How long can they last?

Ok i got the order for keys critters in and they will be here on thursday, before 10 am. How long would they last without being in a tank after that? They will probably be shipped dry since they said they normally dry ship bulk snail orders. There is just 300 ceriths and one emerald crab coming.

I'm just wondering how long they will all last, because i'm in school from 8 until noon, and then i go straight to work till 6. So obviously i wont be able to deal with them so someone at my house will have to.

Any thoughts?

You should ask the shipper, they will have more experience with their shipping method than anyone here will.

just stay home that day or make it to the last class. I always do that when fish are coming.
