I am arranging a deal with a vineyard to acquire about 80 pounds of fresh grapes. They'll need to be shipped basically halfway across the country (US). What's the best way to do this? I'm thinking 5-gallon pails with dry ice?

I know guys out west that load their harvest on U-Hauls and truck them 1,000+ miles with no temp control. Wine still comes out great. I'm not picky, but I mostly want to prevent wild fermentation as much as possible.

Thanks in advance
