I'm not even sure if the creatinine levels decrease over time, but i think that i've read that they do. But anyway if someone has anything to ad to this i'd be interested to know to, cause i'm in a similar situation where this info would come in handy.
Just about everything you said is wrong. Decomp of urine has nothing to do with decreased levels of creatinine. After about 8 hours the urine begins to breakdown and form ammonia which will not only change the pH of the urine but is easily detectable. Also, when urine leaves the body it is sterile. In a worst case scenario, the urine would begin to grow bacteria and that would be a problem. Also, another chemical is formed from the breakdown of urine after several hours. I believe it is an aldehyde but this I am not sure of.

Yes lots of testing centers may ship the urine at room temp of leave it out for several hours at room temp. You don't want to use urine that has been stored at room temp for several hours and then compound this with the time the test center will let the urine sit at room temp or ship at room temp.
