The best thing I ever found for transposting swarms is the cardboard box that
photocopy paper comes in.   An unlimited free supply can be had at most large
companies.
 
Using one, I just caught, transported, and hived a very nice swarm - all in
the middle of a  pouring rain.   The box held up well.
