FedEx, UPS, or USPS. Which one do you prefer?

I searched for this but I didn't find anything. Yesterday, I think the USPS was closed, so I decided to go to one of those FedEx Office places to send my mom a package. While I was there, I asked for insurance, but they said they do some kind of "declared value", not insurance. So, I decided to wait until this morning to use the USPS. I've never used UPS, and the "declared value" thing with FedEx bothered me. Plus, FedEx is much more expensive than the USPS. I don't get the the difference. FedEx says they guarantee overnight deliveries, but the USPS does too. I don't understand why FedEx is so expensive. Oh, and they won't deliver to PO boxes either. I mean, I understand that, it's just that I would rather use a service that delivers everywhere.

Just curious to see what everyone else prefers for shipping packages.
