Wetransfer, it's free and requires no sign-up. I've also used yousendit and google drive at times...

The vast majority of my clients send me files using wetransfer. A few use Dropbox. Once in a blue moon Google Drive. Pretty much nothing else.
I will say this about them. Of the thousands of times I've used wetransfer I have NEVER EVER had a problem. I've had a couple occassions where drop box caused problems (which could have been caused by the client, don't know for sure, but it sucks). And I've twice had problems with Google Drive (both times it came down to special characters in files within a ZIP that somehow got screwed up when uploading to Drive). For these reasons, I push everyone to use wetransfer. It's also the most idiot-proof of all of them. And, it sends a confirmation when the files are downloaded which saves time from having to notify people you got the files.
