How do I ship a painting?



I have a 16" by 16" commissioned painting that I need to send to California. It's on canvas, stapled to stretcher bars.

I haven't the slightest idea how to get it there safely, for a reasonable price. Should I use a cardboard box filled with peanuts? Do I need to acquire carpentry skills and build a wooden protective shipping container? (This seems a bit out of my skill set.)

Any advice would be appreciated.
