Anyone tried transporting and/or shipping using this method? If the coral is attached to LR will it be ok?

Re: Wet Paper Towels?
I've heard that monti plates are extremely hardy and can survive transport (driving) in wet paper towels (though they'll slime like crazy).
I bought LR from someone here on RC. The LR had a variety of corals attached (mushrooms, zoas, Xenia, some acro, and a monti plate) and I transported them home in coolers covered with wet paper towels and a few inches of water in the cooler. The drive was over an hour and everything survived. I wouldn't be comfortable mailing anything like that, but then again, what do I know
