And just so everyone knows, I just found out that if you print your shipping labels off of http://www.usps.com after getting a free account, then for flat rate boxes you get a free tracking number and it's slightly cheaper, plus you can just drop it off at the post office without waiting on the lines.

only if your box will fit in the small box collector bin.

Any priority label printed online will have tracking, whether it is flat rate or not, and you can schedule a free pickup regardless of size, but I believe there is a cumulative weight limit for a pickup, but its pretty high.

Re: Shipping USPS- discount & tracking available 4 FREE
I ship with USPS all the time from home. When I have packages that need to be picked up, I place a note on the mail box and they come right to the door and pick them up. I haven't been to a Post Office in a while.
I wish I could send all International items that way...
