I bought one on ebay that was in Indiana and the seller crated mine in a
wooden box (actually what they use instead of plywood these days) put together
with long screws. Unless you use about an acre of bubble wrap and triple-wall
box material, cardboard is about out of the question.

Is your brother-in-law or sister coming to visit any time soon? It will fit
in the trunk of most cars.
