I only use the Post Office and take the item I am shipping in the box I am shipping it in to the Post office for a quote. Shipping is expensive and if you use internet pricing you may get a surprise when you actually take it in to ship.

I always under-estimate and lose my butt on shipping.

I opened a on-line account with UPS, Measure and weigh the box then print out the ship'n label and take it to work with me. We get packages from UPS daily, Or you can drop it off at any UPS store.
