I've not used this option, but there is something called USPS cubic priority shipping. Perhaps it will lower the cost.

Priority Mail® Cubic is a special rate or sub-service of Priority Mail® for smaller packages where a mailer pays based on the size of the mail piece instead of the weight. It has a maximum weight of 20 pounds and the size can be no bigger than .5 cubic feet.
Zoidberg has the opposite problem, large packages that don't weigh much (for the size of the package). Seems like anytime you get over 12" in one dimension, you get put into "dimensional weight", where the weight of the package no longer matters and they bill you based on the size of the package (i.e. how much space it's going to take up on the truck).
