The honest position is that we are not in Maryland, and it stops nobody. We are Arlen Rabbitry in Bakersfield, California.

And anyone who would rather drive out and choose in person is welcome to. $200 for bucks and does alike.
Questions we get about getting a bunny to Maryland
Who actually does the driving? A USDA certified pet transport service. They carry live animals for a living, in a climate-controlled vehicle, and they stop regularly for water and a check.
Is my bunny ever flown? No. Road the whole way, every time. Nothing of ours goes in a cargo hold.
What does it cost? Quoted for your address rather than off a chart, and you are told before you commit.
How is the date set? Around the weather on the route. We would rather move a run than send a rabbit into heat or snow.
Can I just come and get it? Yes, and you are very welcome to.
Maryland: the timings
Two days is the floor for anywhere, and Maryland sits at 4 days because it is 2,500 to 2,800 miles of road from Bakersfield. That figure already includes the stops and the overnight breaks; it is not a straight-line estimate. Humid around the Bay in high summer, mild otherwise. At this distance the date is planned rather than picked.
Driving out instead? It is about 43 to 48 hours at the wheel, two to three days each way with overnight stops. Worth it for a lot of people, because you get to handle the whole litter before you decide and your bunny travels home with you rather than with anybody else. There is no charge for collecting.
Getting a Mini Lop to Maryland
Maryland is 2,500 to 2,800 miles from us, 4 days on the road. The run is handled by a USDA certified pet transport service, in a climate-controlled vehicle with regular stops for water and a check. Your bunny goes by road the whole way: never flown, and never shipped as cargo.
What this breed's size means for the journey. At 4.5 to 6.5 lb a Mini Lop needs a larger carrier than a Holland and more airflow around it. Not a difficulty, just a bigger box and one more stop on a long run.
Maryland weather, and this breed
Humid around the Bay in high summer, mild otherwise. At this distance the date is planned rather than picked.
The denser body holds heat longer than a Holland Lop does, so a Mini Lop is the one we are most careful with on a summer run. Overnight travel from May onward, without exception.

Keeping a Mini Lop in the Mid-Atlantic
Comfortable through most of the Mid-Atlantic year, with August around the Chesapeake the period that needs managing. A Mini Lop needs more enclosure than a Holland, which is worth knowing in a region where a lot of buyers are in apartments. Measure the space before the rabbit arrives, not after.
Size. 4.5 to 6.5 lb full grown, noticeably heavier than a Holland Lop. Care. The heavier body means nails wear less and need cutting more often, roughly monthly. Watch the weight: a Mini Lop will happily eat past what it needs, and an overweight rabbit cannot groom its own back end properly, which causes real problems.
What it gets mistaken for. Frequently sold as a Holland Lop by people who do not know the difference, and the two are not interchangeable: a Mini Lop is roughly twice the weight. Ask for the adult weight of both parents. Everything about the Mini Lop.

Keeping a Mini Lop in Maryland, month to month
The two things that catch Maryland owners out are the water supply in the cold months and the cooling in the hot ones, and both are cheap to solve before they matter rather than during.
Everything else is the same as it would be anywhere: unlimited timothy hay, a pellet ration measured rather than topped up, and fresh greens introduced slowly. What we feed and why.
