Luggage Forward Guarantees Prompt Luggage Delivery

If you’re tired of carrying your bags through the airport, filling out lost bag reports, and feeling like you’re juggling a hundred different bags at once, Luggage Forward guarantees delivery of baggage from doorstep to destination (and back) for travelers wanting convenience, reliability, and predictability.

Luggage Forward takes care of every step of the process, from booking to pickup and delivery of your bags.  And with a network of shipping partners around the world, they can ensure safe and on time delivery of all your items to over 200 countries.

What can you forward?  Luggage, sporting equipment (skis, snowboard, golf clubs, etc.), bicycles, baby equipment (strollers, car seat, etc.), and pretty much anything else you can think of.

Of course, this convenience comes with a price – and it’s more than that $25 charge for an extra checked bag!  Shipping fees are based on a combination of luggage size, distance to ship, and the level of service that you need. 

I checked out the fees by putting together a sample forward from Seattle to Palm Springs, forwarding one large bag, one medium bag, and a standard bag of golf clubs.  Your service level choice depends on when you want your bags picked up – and consequently how they are shipped.  The range is from 5 days prior (basic at $227 one way) to the day before (express at $599).  A similar range and prices are applicable for the return, and based on when you want your bags delivered back to you at home.

Luggage forwarding looks like an expensive proposition, and in these days of making personal economies, I’m not sure my budget stretches this far.  Still, if you are dealing with business goods, trade show materials, or just have an unlimited budget, it’s hard to argue with the convenience of Luggage Forward.

What do you think?  Is the convenience worth the price?
