Default Shipping Trim?

I need to ship the window trim and some smaller chromed parts from my car. Anyone have suggestions on how to accomplish this with minimal damage? I swear it's made of tissue paper. Ugh

Thanks in advance for the suggestions.

Large box and lots of bubble wrap should be fine.

The tubes or PVC are great if the pieces are straight enough to fit in them.

Carpet tubes work well and you can probably get damaged 12' tubes at a local store or Home Depot/Lowes for free.

I have some GM factory window trim that came in GM branded cardboard tubes.
