UPS or FedEx. They suck too but not as much as USPS. If it's not worth the cost then you probably don't need to send it. I've given up on the postal service and I no longer have any sympathy for anyone that uses them for important things. Last year I sent a certified letter with signature required and containing a check in the amount of $12,000.00. It hasn't been seen since. I had to go the bank and have the check voided. I then wrote another check, drove 30 miles to the nearest UPS store and it showed up where it was supposed too in 3 days and I was able to track it at every stop along the way. Lesson learned. We use the postal service for paying a few local bills, sending cards to relatives and so forth. Things you don't mind (at least not too much!) getting lost or destroyed.
