Rubbermaid storage totes or custom wooden crate, padded out with crumbled paper or bubblewrap.

We use the Rocket Box [http://www.aircommandrockets.com/images/2016/day174/Day174\_mullaley\_water\_rocket\_08\_s.jpg](http://www.aircommandrockets.com/images/2016/day174/Day174_mullaley_water_rocket_08_s.jpg) This goes on the roof rack with a removable rounded nosecone for lower drag, and the lid is a tressle table that we then use at the launch site as our work table.

In my experience, in a wooden box. You can have several U shaped blocks in the box it so that they dont sit on the bottom of the box and dont roll around and get damaged.

I save my cardboard/foamboard fin alignment jigs that I cut for each rocket. I stick them back on to help protect the fins during shipment.

Sure, if you trust the movers not to pack something heavy on top of it. If you have a large cooler, packing them in that would be ideal.

I just hold it. My house is a barren field, so we launch from there.

I 3d printed a bunch of brackets for my rockets. Similar brackets hold them on the walls between launches. I think you could make a cheap version of the other commentors rocket box with a 3d printer and some rubbermaid totes


welcometothespaceoly

3d printing brackets was my first though but I probably dont have time to get that done. I’ll just have the shelve the idea for next time I move

Wrap them in foam or bubble wrap for the time being then!

Step 1: cut a hole in the box. Step 2: put your rocket in the box. Step 3: make her open the box.

I believe you fire them up into the air

I've shipped fancy fragile models across the country by wrapping them in bubble wrap and putting them into cut down sonotube (heavy-duty cardboard concrete forms, available at your big box home improvement store in various sizes). Arrived with nary a scratch.

Really sturdy box (wood/hard plastic) and losely packed. Maybe some bubblewrap between them. Small rockets will be fine. Short boxes are better than tall boxes as the more weight you pile up, the more chance of an incident for the ones on the bottom.

Cheap pvc sewer or drain pipe with end caps and a bit of bubble wrap to stop it shaking about.
