I have a UPS Ground prepaid label to return the cell phone that I’m trading. They told me it would be $10-12 to schedule a driver pickup, else I can take it to a dropoff location. When did this start? Boo, UPS. Boooooo.
Th US is the only country I know of that does mail pickup.

They charge for a scheduled pickup, but they don’t charge if the driver is already destined for your address. You can give it to your driver on your next delivery for free. I’ve also given out-bound packages to my UPS driver when I see him delivering to other units in my complex.

Which is completely fine. Expecting the driver to go out of his way to pick up your package, and do it completely for free, is unreasonable

Fair but we don’t get regular deliveries via UPS. Most everything we get comes USPS or occasionally FedEx.

Do you think every service offered by every company should be free?

That’s good to know, thanks.
