A locking shipping crate for pharmaceutical shipments monitors the temperature and/or humidity within the crate in transit to identify whether the contents are safe or compromised. A keyboard/display on the lid of the crate provides an ID code that the recipient enters into a computer web page to communicate this ID code to the shipper. If the ID code represents a safe shipment, the shipper returns an unlock code that the recipient enters to unlock the lid. If there has been a compromise, a different ID code is presented, and the shipper instead returns a message to return the crate, and denies the unlock code. A key lock may be present, with keys available only to trusted personnel.
