Why not just call the Tannery and ask them, seems they would know best.

I did get a return email stating to freeze and ship overnight which we did. They did an axis hide for me and it was really great work.

Will be sending them an axis next year.

Go to NTT website. They ask specifically to NOT salt the hide. Just freeze and pack and send with your carrier.
