The best way is through the Writers Guild. You can now do it online, through their website. It's safe, inexpensive, and holds for 5 years which you can then extend to another 5 years.

To register a screenplay, you can submit it to the U.S. Copyright Office by filling out the appropriate application forms and paying the registration fee. You can do this online or by mail. Note that copyright protection is automatic once you create the work, but registering your screenplay provides additional legal benefits and evidence of ownership in case of infringement.
