Terry, I would try a store like The Home Depot, or Loes (don't know the exact spelling). There are also these stores which will pack and ship for you. Check with your mail room. Sometimes they have packing materials.

I have seen stirraphome at craft stores and Walmart.

Your office probably has a FEDEX account. Check if that account includes insurance. The FEDEX form probably has a section for insurence. I ship the Braillenote in the case, in the original box, placed within a larger outside box. . But I put shipping peanuts in both boxes to secure the Braillenote.
