Shipping your luggage

Luggage can be a burden, not only in terms of weight but also mentally. Say goodbye to the hassle of lugging heavy suitcases, freeing up your hands for your children or bringing along special equipment. All of this is possible when you ship your luggage.

The convenience of shipping your luggage

You’re eager to go on vacation or travel, but you dread the hassle that comes with baggage. It’s already causing you stress before your journey even begins.

How will I get to the airport with all those suitcases? Will they fit in the car?
I’m already dreading the task of hauling those heavy suitcases around.
Will I have to pay extra?
How can I bring my luggage with me at the destination? Will it fit in the rental car?
How do I manage carrying both luggage and children?
I’m getting older; can my partner and I handle that heavy luggage?

Perhaps you’re also concerned about these things and want to ship your luggage because it’s easier and relieves you of worries. Maybe you’re specifically looking for the option to ship your luggage because you want to bring special items. Or perhaps you want to send luggage that you don’t trust with the rough handlers at the airport and ensure that your belongings make the journey safely. Whatever your motivation may be for shipping your luggage, Bagbooking has got you covered!

How does it work?

The benefits of shipping your luggage

First and foremost, convenience! Can you imagine going on your trip without worrying about your luggage? That’s truly carefree vacationing. Enjoy your holiday from day one.

Shipping luggage offers more advantages than just convenience:

No more carrying, lifting, or dragging heavy suitcases.
You can easily travel by public transportation, saving you costly parking fees.
If you’re traveling by plane, you don’t need to book additional baggage. That saves you money as well.
No hassle at the airport during baggage check-in.
No waiting for your luggage upon arrival.
No fear of your luggage not appearing on the baggage carousel.
You can bring luggage that you wouldn’t have been able to bring otherwise.
You won’t lose your luggage; you can track it all the way to your destination.
Traveling with children suddenly becomes enjoyable. You have your hands free.
If you’re older or less mobile, Bagbooking allows you to go on that trip.

Luggage-free travel by plane, car, or train

Most people associate shipping luggage with the long queues at check-in counters at the airport. Or waiting at the baggage carousel while your suitcase has gone missing and never appears on the belt. However, shipping your luggage also offers many advantages if you’re traveling by means other than the plane.

For example, if you plan to go on a road trip but your car isn’t large enough for all your luggage. Or if you don’t want to rent a car just for your baggage at the destination. Or perhaps you prefer traveling by train but don’t want to lug your luggage around, sit in corridors because you can’t fit your luggage in the compartment, or constantly keep an eye on your belongings.

Shipping your luggage offers you numerous benefits, regardless of your mode of transportation. It provides you with much more freedom.

Traveling and luggage are inseparable. It often causes quite a bit of concern, and recently it has become stressful to bring luggage during your journey, as demonstrated at Schiphol Airport. Bagbooking takes away that stress by transporting your luggage from home to your destination. No stress, just carry-on luggage, and no long waiting times at the airport for retrieving your baggage.
