The CRT was completely surrounded with foam, but in one section the foam was not very thick. This is why I think having the replacement(s) completely incased in soft foam, and on their sides will be the winner.

Agreed! This is why I need to figure out a method to keep the container on its side. This one was shipped via a direct flight from Moscow to Houston, then trucked to Columbus, and then to Pittsburgh. A replacement can be shipped via more traditional methods (FedEx, etc...) because its dimensions and weight will be far less than the last shipment (which included the entire television).
