Can it give an incorrect report?

Hello doctors, In my urine routine test, protein was found. Now I want to do a 24-hour urine protein test. Near my home, all labs are charging too much. One lab is affordable, but it is far from my home. My question is: If I collect urine for 24 hours and carry the sample to that far lab, will sunlight or travel affect the test result? Can it give an incorrect report?
