Not to be flippant, but I had a radio shipped and received one that was heavily packed with newspaper and bubble wrap and both instances they arrived without damage. Not saying that it wasn't safe, just took care to wrap it with enough to secure it. BTW, both were the 6 Disc type and came all the way from MA and from NC. If you feel unsure, go to UPS or somewhere like that and ship it and put ins on it! Good luck!
