Our recommendation for shipping depends on how often you ship, your supplies, and how complex your needs.

If you very rarely ship, and don't keep any shipping supplies
Go in person to USPS (the post office) for small and relatively light things, and a UPS Store for larger or heavier.
There can be a huge difference in prices as you get large or heavy.

If you are shipping an original - consider using UPS Store, or other shipping store, service to package the item.
If you are in the Bay-Waveland area, S&L Office has a lot of sizes of boxes and reasonable UPS rates. If you can get it packaged yourself, you can also have us ship it for you and charge your account.
