Moving Tanks

Did not know where to post this but i have a problem.
I am moving house and its about 3 hours away. I need to know the safest and most secure way i can get my fish from one place to another.
I am going to set up a small aquarium up before we move in the other house JUST in case anything goes wrong.
I have got auto cycle stuff from store i'm just worried about temperature and stress of the fish in a 3 hour trip.

I personally have never had to move fish more than 20 minutes away from my starting location 3hrs is quite a hike for all of your fish. How big is the tank and how manny fish do you have? I have to move all of my tanks in july so i bought a 50gal that i am going to go in and setup ahead of time to reduce the time that the fish are out of a tank. He is a link it talks about moving fish it has some really good ideas such as putting all of the fish into bags and sticking them into a cooler to help control the temperature. When doing a 3hr trip i think that is a good idea.
