I agree with Fred. You can also do a price comparison by going to their web
pages.

For UPS; enter the from & to zip codes; drop-off/pick-up: one-time or
counter; Packaging: your packaging and the package details. their 800
number is 1-800-PICKUPS (742-5877)
The on-site pickup is often cheaper than taking it into the counter. (go
figure)
And definitely, don't use MailBoxes,U-Post-It, or any other drop off
service. They sometimes double your cost.

Subject: UPS shipping long
I have found the very cheapest way to ship by UPS is using their 800 number
and they come to my house the next day for P/U, this cuts out the middleman
forwarding company and they are still less than the USPO, and yes they will
pick-up the next day at your home for N/C. Whoever this "Caribou" company
was
that posted, if you want to be in the selling business on e-bay or anywhere
else it is to your advantage to find the lowest/best rates possible and
trying
to add your time into a line at the postoffice well whom do you charge when
you go to the grocery store or the rest room after all as you state time is
money, it's just I don't buy your way of figuring your cost charges. "FT"
