Any recommendations for an art handler / shipper in Santa Monica to pack an ink portrait behind glass measuring 28.5" x 24.5" x 1.5" and weighing 8 lb.?  We need to get it to Springfield, MO by mid October.  I'm hoping if it is packed really well it could go by FedEx if insured well.  Any advice for someone who doesn't generally ship art?  The donor is in Santa Monica.  
Many thanks,
