You can get shiping supplies from scales. They have insulated boxes as well as containers or I'm sure you can find other placing that sell boxes. I've shipped UPS in the past & haven't had a problem. Ship next day air though it's worth the extra money. Also never ship past Thurdays just incase the package get's misplace during shiping. You don't wont the cham sitting in a warehouse all weekend. If you can find some stickers that read "Carefull Live Harmless Animal" or something to that effect it should keep the package from being bounced around. Also too set a temp range like "Keep between 60-80 degrees". check the weather for extreme highs or lows & make sure the person recieving the package is there to pick it up when it arrives. If they can't be there the day it arrives don't ship until they can. Hope this helps.
