Currently I am in Minnesota visiting the family but looking at a local fish store promo it seems they have cleaner shrimp 2 for $30 and some other 'deals' I may take advantage of on fish, just have to see whats there. Anyway, transporting them in my vehicle would really be no different than shipping correct? I was going to stop by on my way out of town and see what I can find. Would it be best to keep them in a small cooler? Any other tips?

Let the fish store know you have a 4 hour drive so they make sure to bag them well. I would put them in a cooler too since the weather is getting pretty cold.

it would also help to have them bag plenty of water.
