Default shipping a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope

Are there special precautions/considerations in shipping a reflecting
telescope? This is a 20+ year old Celestron C8, which came in a well-padded
trunk. Still, the way these UPS guys throw stuff around...

I've never had to ship one of these but I will probably have to soon. Any
advice from people experienced in this would be greatly appreciated.
