https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Known_Shipper_Program

In the post-September 11th era, shippers who have been properly vetted with the TSA by an air carrier or freight forwarder are considered a Known Shipper with the TSA. Such shippers may tender their freight for shipment on both passenger and cargo-only aircraft, with some restrictions. Available alternatives for Unknown Shippers to ship via air are now very limited. Collectively, this program is known within the industry as the Known Shipper Program.
DL only offers cargo on passenger aircraft. You may have better luck working with a cargo carrier (or USPS).
