You might try contacting a local bike shop. I've never done it myself, but have heard of others taking them to a shop that carries boxes made for bikes. As I say, this is just something I recall reading in the vague recesses of my mind.

If you don't want to pack the bike yourself, Wheelworks does a good job - I used the Somerville store:
