How do I set up a listing like which shipping service should I use. For example if i choose USPS does it mean I drop it in the USPS mailbox?

You might want to spend some time reading before you start selling:

Re: Seller

It's better to review eBay's how-to pages on selling before you set up doing it so you know your options.  This one addresses your question specifically (shipping options):

You will need to do your own research on this as you are the one that knows what you are selling, how much it weighs, how you will package it, etc.  The rest of us don't have that info.

Re: Seller

If, after figuring the size/weight of the package, USPS is the right way for you to go- you can go to their website and schedule a pickup from your regular mail carrier. You can also get a price estimate. 

 

Know that most anything under 16oz can go 1st Class (package, not letter) and over that usually goes Priority (can also go Parcel for a buck or 2)- but with Priority, you can get free boxes from Post Office as well (also can order from their website, in bulk delivered to your door). 

 

Larger packages, Fedex is the usually the way to go.
