Best bet it to take the hard cases that your rods came in and keep one rod per tube and buy a bag that will fit the rod tubes needed. That way they are handing one rod at a time which will greatly reduce the odds of abuse or an accident. My issue was that they tried to jam 2 rods into a tube and just didn't take the time to do it properly. If I had the smaller tubes, one per rod, it probably would not have happened.
