I would not use the monthly services unless you know that the cost is worth
it. I wanted to try stamps.com but only ship maybe one item a month.

I print my address labels using MS Word and placing the information in the
middle of the paper both horizontially and vertically. This usually works
for me because the paper will then cover everything needed to be covered.

If memory serves me, you can sign-up with UPS and print pre-paid labels
without needing to pay monthly plus you can schedule a pick-up for free.

Can someone advise me on how to and  which one to use?

I am trying to figure out how to send packages and print my own postage
labels to save money and be able to know what the price is.  Now I have been
over to Stamps.com and they talk about charging $15.99 per month and they
give you a 5 pound scale.  I have an 11 pound talking scale, but I was
thinking more like occasionally using something like this as I am just
beginning and not sure of the need for this.  They have a free 4 week trial
and give you $5 credit on stamps that need to be used within the 4 week
trial.

Pitney Bowes has a trial deal for 90 days and they have a choice.  If you
want to go with all the carriers and be able to compare prices and use
whichever it is $25 per month.  If you want to go with just one then it is
$15.  Their choices are UPS, USPS,Fedex,and I think 2 others or with the
above you pick just 1 of them.

I need to check the USPS websiteto see if they have it online, but does
anyone use this and I really didn't think they charged a monthly fee.

Help please advise me.

Joyce
