Default Shipping regular BP motors?

If I were to use USPS to ship a pack of Estes BP motors (A8-3) from one coast to another, what is the proper method? I thought it was ground and then you had to have a special sticker but it been so long I can't remember.

Personally, I just ship them Parcel Post and am done with it. I don't horse around with the other rigamarole.

Yikes! I may need to stay away from you at NARCON. I wouldn't want to get caught in the crossfire when the man finally puts the smack down on you.
