I bought a cheap foam mattress to transport my dob around and it works pretty well. Always expect to have to collimate after a journey as it will still experience some bumps. Also you want to make sure the tube can't roll around, so wedge a few things around it, like sleeping bags, other boxes, anything that will keep it in place. Biggest dangers is large potholes or the like, which might give the scope a big jolt. Slow down on corrugated roads, they can be a killer too.
