If you can deal with me folding it up rather tightly to ship it, I can fit it into a fairly small box. That will make it appear to be creased when you receive it, but you can lay it in the sun on a hot day and it will straighten right out. (Or lay it on the floor and flatten it with a blow dryer.) When I got it from Amazon I was sure it would never be right and after a couple of hot days, it was perfectly flat with no signs of the original creasing. But, that box was quite a bit bigger.
