I have found the big plastic smart bin from walmart with a bunch of cheap pillows to imobilze it works well if your shipping ground which is definatley cheaper don't let the shipper get you though should cost 80 to 110 dollars any where in the mainland usa .
All fluid should be drained as much as possible i it leaks it will get stuck
