Baggage transfer only from beginning to end along portuguese central, no stages

[bryan138]

Hello!

I’ve been browsing the forum and there’s plenty of info for baggage transfers from stage to stage, where you pick it up daily, give it back and move on, however what I’m after is a service to deliver a suitcase when I start in Porto and then pick it up 2~3 weeks later in Santiago, I don’t need anything in between.

It’s just that before starting the camino i’ve been traveling through Portugal with luggage, I’m packing a smaller bag to do my camino with just the essentials c:

Also I see services have a 20kg limit, any experience with heavier bags? Haven’t weighed mine but i’m pretty sure it’ll be over that.

Thank you!

Ivar will give you all the information you need on that website. For 2 bags shipped & stored in Santiago it ended up being about $200USD, but well worth it. We did it for the same reason you are. The pick up times on a weekend are limited. Good luck.
