Which shipping carrier is cheaper for shipping packages?

Which package do you want to ship, and where to?
assistant
I want to ship a box of books to Texas from Maryland.

If you go with the least-expensive service, Federal Express should be the cheapest option, around $20.  If you ship within the continental United States, UPS or USPS are similar, and would be less than $25.  Or if you are willing to pay more, you could ship with the United Parcel Service, which will be more expensive.

I heard about using Media Mail from USPS. I think I can ship books cheaper if I use that service.

How large is the box you want to ship?  Is the box made of cardboard, or is it a large wooden box, or something else?
assistant
It is a medium sized box with about 10 paperback books in it.
