While away on vacation I had to mail a $1500 cashier's check to my Realtor in Florida and I sure wasn't going to use USPS for something important. We ran down there and the staff was friendly and they were having a pretty fun conversation. Everyone seemed upbeat and the place was clean. I would recommend FedEx over most shipping companies ESPECIALLY if you're shipping anything of value or if it needs a signature. USPS is a joke and UPS doesn't seem to be very strict on important things like signatures and where they deliver the item to. (i.e. neighbors, front door, office buildings)
