So what does everyone use to pack the inside of the box? I know most people use crumpled newspaper but I was wondering if there was something better that would add a bit more cushioning. I've gotten a few boxes that had 3 or 4 little balls of newspaper that didn't seem to do much. How does everyone feel about those styrofoam peanut things? I had one snake shipped to me in them and she seemed very well padded. With the way the delivery guys throw things around i just want to make sure they have enough protection.
 
I put two inches of carefresh in the bottom (soaks up any moisture plus provides padding and insulation from anything the box might be placed on), a sheet of paper over that, then fill with shredded newspaper.
