Prepare desktop for a long-distance move

I'm located in DC and getting ready to move to San Jose in about 2-3 months. The computer in question is an old G5 tower, similar in configuration to the current Mac Pro moodels. I need to take my tower with me for work, so I can't wait to just cart it out on a truck when I bring the rest of my stuff over at a later date. Can anybody offer advice on the cheapest/safest ways to transport it? I can figure out the peripherals and all fine, it's just the tower itself that I'm having trouble deciding what to do.

First, make sure it's backed up. Take out the hard disks and carry them as hand luggage. Then pack the tower in its original packaging and Fedex it.
