Good way to ship plants.

Does anyone have a good method of shipping plants? Here is the problem. I will be shipping four or five plants in 4" square pots, in 12X12X8 USPS Priority Mail boxes . Packing them so they will not slide around from side to side isn't a problem. Using newspaper to add a little tension between the sides of the box and pots is even enough to keep them from bouncing around too much. My question is, how to I prevent the plants from getting destroyed if a postal worker tosses the box ten feet across the truck, or is unable to understand what "this side up" means?

A photograph of any packing methods would be helpful.
