Live Lobster — Storage & Handling
Live lobsters are highly perishable and should be handled carefully to maintain freshness and quality.
Upon Receiving Your Lobster
- Keep refrigerated: Store live lobsters immediately at 32–40°F (0–4°C).
- Keep them moist, not wet: Place lobsters in a breathable container and cover them loosely with damp paper towels, newspaper, or seaweed.
- Allow airflow: Never store live lobsters in an airtight bag or sealed container. They need oxygen to remain alive.
- Never place in freshwater: Freshwater can quickly kill a saltwater lobster. Do not submerge lobsters in water or allow them to sit in melted ice water.
- Do not freeze: Never place a live lobster in the freezer.
- Avoid overcrowding: Do not tightly stack or pile lobsters on top of one another.
How Soon Should I Cook My Lobster?
For the best freshness, flavor, and quality, we recommend cooking live lobster within 24 hours of receiving it.
When properly refrigerated and handled, live lobsters may remain alive for up to approximately 48 hours, but quality and freshness will gradually decline.
Before Cooking
A healthy live lobster should show movement when handled. If your lobster is limp, has an unusual or unpleasant odor, or shows no signs of life, do not consume it if you are unsure how long it has been dead.
Important: Live seafood is extremely perishable. Proper refrigeration and handling are essential from the time of purchase until preparation.
