Which is cheaper, UPS or USPS? ›

UPS is often more expensive than USPS due to fees and surcharges, especially when it comes to shipping smaller packages. Generally, USPS offers much better rates when shipping smaller packages of less than two pounds.

Higher Costs: FedEx generally has higher rates, particularly for specialized and express services. Limited Discounts for Small Volume Shippers: Like UPS, FedEx offers fewer discount opportunities for low-volume shippers.
