I only use USPS, with delivery confirmation, no insurance, UNLESS very expensive say $100 or more, I do not use tubes, I use boxes, and roll loosely,

I only use USPS as well. And I get free boxes from them as well. Free flat rate boxes. Like Speedoggy said, loose roll. Some things i'll use a tube.

flat rate should really be used for real heavy stuff otherwise it doesn't pay? All of my decals are light...  |

I ship a lot of decals thru USPS. I roll up the decals and put them in the triangular tube boxes. You can get them free from the USPS website. Also you can schedule a pickup on the website. It makes it very convenient for me since I make decals as a side job. I schedule the pick up then leave the boxes next to my garage when I leave for work in the morning. Every day the mailman picks them up for me.
