Haha, Yeah I live in Trenton. A very very small town and the guy lives here as well it's great. He also sells 1000 blatta lateralis hatchlings for 20 bucks!

Dude please stop telling me, haha. You're definitely hooked up, that's for sure. You should get those blatta lateralis as an alternative to crickets until your dubia colony is really thriving. They're fast breeders, comparable nutritional value to dubias - just smaller roaches and don't climb.
You could try posting on faunaclassifieds or kingsnake. You could put her up for sale on here for a good price shipped. Maybe a wholesaler will buy it off you, you probably won't get that much though if a wholesaler buys it off you.
Maybe get some advice from other people, you can ask Jeff or John if they don't mind. I know they have dealt with shipping these guys, or know from experience. I would say a deli container appropriately sized for her so she can't really be moved around if it's thrown around. Filled like 3/4 the way with wet coco fiber, with holes on the top of the lid. Styrofoam blocks to keep it in place with peanut shells. Overnight shipping, live animal. Also if it is cold you will need to get some heat packs that last 24-48 hours and set them next to the container either separate by a block so it doesn't directly transfer heat being too hot, or if it's too hot a ice pack separated by a block from the deli container to cool down the container. She'll be able to breath through the coconut fiber, just make sure it's really moist before you ship it out.
