Can you point me out the ones that do? The popular exchanges of that list I know don't, except Bisq.
Can't speak for any others, but that two that I use - HodlHodl and AgoraDesk - both do. On HodlHodl type "In Person" in to the "Payment Methods" search box, and on AgoraDesk you can choose either "Cash by mail" or "Cash (locally)" from the drop down menu.

I would add a fourth method to your list, which is "Trade with people you already know". Have you traded with the same person on Bisq a few dozen times with no issues? Have you made friends with people at bitcoin meetups? Do you have friends or colleagues from non-bitcoin walks of life who also use bitcoin? Having an established relationship and mutual trust with your trading partner came make the process so much easier, as well as potentially allowing you to bypass using a trading platform and escrow (therefore saving time and fees) provided you have enough trust with the other party.
