UPS or FedEx. Mark with the ORM-D diamond on the outside. No extra shipping fees involved.

The above is how I understand it as well.
Although, you either need to setup an UPS Shipper Account, or ship out at a UPS hub.
Also, you will likely be surprised at how expensive UPS has become for shipping heavy items.

I was told you have to print the ordnance label (ORM-D) yourself. Somewhere I saw the diamond must be 4" but I don't remember where.
