What’s great about travel? Arriving. What’s bad about travel? Everything that happens before you arrive. And that includes dealing with your luggage. Not only is it annoying to haul bags, check them and hopefully claim them on the carousel — it’s expensive.

LugLess picks up your packed bags — and anything else you’re bringing like skis, golf clubs, whatever — at your home, office or hotel. They then ship them to  your destination through a major courier like FedEx, UPS, DHL or many others they work with. They get big discounts with these companies so you get big savings on shipping your bags. In fact, you can ship a bag anywhere in the U.S. for pricing as low as $39. Checking bags with airlines can cost up to $100+ these days.

Their site lists these steps to show how easy it all is:

-       call or sign up online

-       we send packet

-       we pick up

-       we scan, you receive email

-       we ship

-       we deliver on time

LugLess is available throughout the U.S. and in more than 235 countries — and they say they have yet to lose a piece of luggage. What’s more, since they ship via commercial planes, not regular airlines, there aren’t any TSA agents rifling through your bags. Sounds like a great way to go.
