UPS is a private company, unrelated to the USPS.

No, they are NOT. And neither is the U.S. Postal service since the very early 70's. UPS is a privately owned company, and the Postal Service makes thier money by selling postage and services.

UPS stands for United Parcel Service. The USPS stands for United States Postal Service. And no UPS is not a government run company and neither is FedEx (Federal Express).

UPS is a privately owned company out to make a buck. They are pretty good to do business with.
