My experience is I stopped having problems when I took over the packing. I hate it and didn't consider myself good at it, but after a while it became clear that "reputable bike shops" are extremely spotty about this skill. I still hate it and it takes me forever, but my self-packed bikes have all arrived to happy buyers.
