Here is the message that has just been posted:

We have found that parcel post or flat rate is the way to go if the weight /
volume is low ie less the 7 lbs. They don't discount and are a pain to deal
with if they are picking it up at your place of business and having you
manifest for them.
But the cost goes up when things get heavier.
a 35 lb box for ups is about $25 to $35 depending on the zone. (Full retail)
We do not use FedEx as they do not have the discount rates too make it viable
and require special forms ect. now the volume to get a discount is
considerable. We have a 30% discount with UPS on ground and a 50% on air
shipments but our volume is 500 to 800 packages per day.
Fed Ex can cater to the small guy from what I have heard. You should contact
both and see what they will offer. They will both give you better rates if you
exclude the other.
