[AusNOG] [OT] Overseas Server Shipping: Need a suitable box

[Craig Askings]

I default to Pack & Send for this stuff, they put some funky expanding 
foam (in a plastic bag) around the equipment when putting it in the box. 
That way it won't shift during transit and gives it some measure of 
protection.

And they supply the box.
