I apologize if this has been asked (multiple) times before, but I just realized that the bulky package I'm about to send will not fit in any UPS or FedEx Envelope, no way.

Soooo, how did you all mail it, did you use USPS certified? Do they have bigger envelopes? I know both UPS and FedEx have those fairly huge envelopes but I fear if I use them the documents will be totally trashed by the time they make it to sunny California.

Thanks for any advice!

USPS priority with delivery confirmation (I didn't bother with certified/registered or even signature confirmation, I just wanted to know it got there). Once the check was cashed a couple of days later (never been so glad money went out of my account) that was definitive proof.

Yes - USPS priority with return receipt and delivery confirmation. They have a variety of sized envelopes if you wish to use one of theirs. Btw - you can't use Fed-Ex or UPS to mail something to a PO Box number - that means it is a Post Office box - you can only use USPS.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Personally I used FedEx but that's only because I dont have a lot of time to go hanging around in the post office - I have an account with FedEx and they just came and picked it up.... no hassle.
