Finally getting around to documenting how I traveled with my MKVI suit to Calgary Canada!
Massive thanks to [USER=32904]Rock Lobbster[/USER] for all of the insights traveling with Sterilite foot lockers. They worked wonders!
For anyone else that gets these to travel, if you have wo of them, I suggest getting something to strap them together and a nice handle to make it easier to wheel them around.
I used a replacement pull start handle and a lashing strap:

I also want to thank [USER=11747]Asgardianhammer[/USER] for the templates. I used them for a bunch of inspiration to decorate my crates.

Side 1: Midwest Logo
Side 2: 405th Logo
Back: More Arrows + Spartan II Logo
Obscured by the handle is my personal logo.
I also created an information sheet to go in each case using multiple others as inspiration.

In summary I can say that my armor made it up to Calgary and back without any damage! The one lesson learned that I have is that the vinyl that I put on top of the case doesn't stick as well as hoped. I think I will eventually go back and make stencils and paint graphics on.
