As always, FlyerTalk is a wealth of great information and insight. UHAUL / UPS / others have shipping boxes with styrofoam inserts for about $15. I think I'll try this route. If this becomes a regular occurence, I'll look at something like www.thewinecheck.com has to offer.

Because my sister doesn't see it as a hassle, since I am the one schlepping it on a rental car bus, to check in, etc. I want to say that she inquired about shipping to Texas and was told they would not.
