It isn't simply about cost - though I understand that is the specific issue you are trying to address:
Try sending a letter or small package through the USPS, UPS, and FedEx (and DHL and a local courier service for good measure)
- See which one was more cost effective
- See which one was fastest (or slowest)
- Which offered the best service (up to date tracking, delivery confirmation + signature, etc.)
- Sends thousands of parcels and see which was the most reliable with fewest lost/late arrivals
- See how the service varies by region, distance traveled, etc...
There are a lot of variables, and while cost is certainly and important one - it isn't the only one.
