Question How did you ship a tool crate to Nat's

This will be our first time to register for the championship event. We drive the three hours to our regional and always pack a van with spare parts and most all of our tools. More than likely we will fly to Atlanta. (I don't want to spend 18 hours on a bus with kids ) That means that if I don't want to try and check a tool box as luggage we will need to ship tools to Atlanta. Who's done this and what did it cost? I don't want to pay loads of drayage fees so I am thinking of sending the tool crate after we return from our regional and have it arrive at the drayage site for less than a week. Is this possible and will they deliver it with our robot crate without going through the FIRST drayage system? I read in an old post that some teams ship tools to their hotel in Atlanta. Who's done that and what carrier did you use? Lots of questions and figuires to nail down for the budget process.

Thanks, a bunch.
