Just set them on end (the flat side)so they don't solid up on one side (the rounded part). That way if it gets a little thick on the flat side it will stay balanced and come loose when you start back up. I have left mine for a couple of weeks with no problems that way.

If you're really worried.....When driving long distances, you really should get out and walk 5 minutes or so every couple hours.....take the drum with and roll it.

It's probably best to do what Scott said, but I have left mine just sitting on its side on the tumbler with it off for a couple of weeks with no problems either. When we returned, I just shook the barrel by hand until it sounded like everything was loose.
