Will the Correos accept a small backpack or bag

I'm shipping stuff to Ivar. Can I just take the bag to the Correos? Or must I find myself a box or other container?
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
The Correos can provide a suitable corrugated box for a nominal fee. They comne in a wide variety of sizes.

That is how I do it. And I have done so MANY times.

If you are shipping a suitcase or duffel bag, they will strap it closed with their plastic shipping tape to prevent zips from coming undone, or straps catching in their machinery. I have done this, from Ponferrada to Santiago. It works great.

Hope this helps.
