Been a week since you posted this so hopefully you solved it already. In case you didn't though -- Depending on what it is, the shipping methods could differ. I usually end up just using USPS or UPS (depending on what's available where I am). For most contents she'll want to wrap everything several times to avoid the contents scraping/sliding/moving in the box. Another strategy that works well for more-fragile contents is double-boxing -- put a box inside another box with padding all around it. That keeps the inner box (and contents) safer from any outside crushing/stabbing damages (and also weather sometimes).

Hope that helps!
