What companies do you usually rely on for shipping if you are not part of a shipping company?

Depends on what you’re shipping. FedEx professional rates can give you cheaper fees, and companies like ULINE can be great if you need specialized materials.

I usually rely on services such as FedEx, USPS, and UPS for shipping needs. Recently, I've been using Amazon to deliver items due to their convenience. Although I'm not part of a shipping company, I find the services they provide have reasonably fast transit times and competitive pricing.

Although if you are shipping to Asia, DHL shipping might be a viable option.

DHL for all international shipping. There's really nothing else that's comparable.

Stupid question but getting a divorce now and having a hard time figuring out what to do with sentimental things such as wedding pictures, travel pics, ornaments we bought together, etc. What did you do? Relationship was over 12 years and don’t know what to do. Should I jus pretend that those 12 years never happened or she was not there?

Divorce is amicable and based on growing apart rather than bc of cheating or fighting or anything else..
