I think that this service is great. I will be start walking April 28 from St Jean. I will definitely send a package to you with some things that I do not wish to carry while walking.
I will be walking all the way to Muxia (“Ojala”), and because there are many uncertainties with weather and my walking progress, I cannot say exactly when I will arrive in Santiago, but I would like to stay with you if possible. I will have another chance to see you and pick up my package when I return from Muxia. I will have to email you from the Camino when I get close enough to know the day of arrival.
I will stay in contact with you.
Good Luck with your business.

It’s great to have a service like yours. Last year I made use of it and it was beneficial, in case I need to do it again this year will certainly take advantage of it.Many thanks.

Hello,
I’m hiking the Camino Frances on 17th March 2011 and have some ‘excess weight’ that I’d like to send to Santiago del Compostella ahead of me. In my trek through the internet I came across your webite with the information regarding postage storage.
This is very useful.
I have a netbook that weighs 2kg and is about 30cmx30cm.
I will hopefully arrive in SdC on 25 April 2011.
Thankyou
Posted by pilgrimhelper on March 4, 2011 at 6:18 am
Ok Joseph,
just send it to our address to your attention.
Regards.
Manuel.

Dear Manuel
I am starting from SJPDP on about 23 March and expect to arrive not later than 29 April at your place in Santiago.
I will forward my excess luggage from Bilbao on about 21 March.
Saludo

How about suitcases? Can you storage them? I am planning to go on my walk, first week of May… I would appreciate any information you can give me… Thanks!
Posted by pilgrimhelper on March 11, 2011 at 5:35 pm
Hi Mariana,
we also store suitcases, the prices are the same than packages. If it´s a medium or big suitcase the cost of it would be 25 eur.
Thank you.
Manuel.

what is the best way to send a suitcase to you from the airport in madrid? thanks
Posted by pilgrimhelper on May 2, 2011 at 6:22 pm
Hello Jane,
at Madrid airport there is a post office in T1 (arrivals), they open between 08.30 until 14.30 from monday to friday and between 09.30 to 13.00 on saturdays. If your timing is not coincident you can also use a courier, for instance “MRW”, located inside the airport, they open also in the afternoon until late evening.
Regards.
Manuel.

Posted by Clementien Sengers- van Loon on March 21, 2011 at 11:17 am
Dear Manuel,
We started out journey om the 5th of May in Barcelona.
On the 13th of May we will fly to Santiago and would like to put our 2 suitcases in Santiago, because then we go by bus 100 km backwards foor walking the last 100km of the St. Jacobspath.
I see that the price is 25E for one suitcase?
Is it possible that you can pick-up the suitcases from the airport?
We will arrive Friday the 13th about three o’clock afternoon.
Then a week later we will arrive on friday or saturday: the 20th or 21th of May in Santiago.
Hope you understand my question, with kind regards,
Clementien Sengers from Holland

Hi Manuel,
I am walking the Camino from SJPP through to Finisterre (June 3 to approx July 15 this year)and would like to forward a suit case (670cm x 430cm x 250cm, and weighing about 8 kg) to you in SdeC for safe keeping. This is a larger size than your quoted fee of 25 Euros so firstly I would like to check the price. Also, how do I get the suitcase to you? Is it better to forward it from SJPP or Madrid? And do you know how much that will cost?
Thank you for your help.

Posted by Al Knowlton on April 11, 2011 at 12:23 pm
Hi Manuel,
I am walking the Camino from SJPP to Santiago starting on May 18th and I would like to forward a small package to you for safe keeping. I will send it from SJPP when I arrive there. I do not know exactly when I will arrive in Santiago but home to be there in the last week of June. I will try and send you and email when I know more as I am thinking that I will want to make an accomodation reservation at Pension Badalada.
Thanks,
Al Knowlton
Posted by RenegadePilgrim on May 1, 2011 at 8:24 pm
Al, I would ship your package from Spain, not France. It would be cheaper to have one of the luggage carriers take it over the Pyrenees and then ship it in Roncesvalles or any other town with a post office. I made the mistake last year and then shipped some other things from Pamplona and the cost was at least half what I paid in France.

Hola. I am in madrid. Will the postal service allow me to send a soft side piece of luggage to you without packing it in a box?
Posted by Mike E on May 18, 2011 at 4:44 pm
I am in a small town with no post office. Will be in Pamplona in two days and plan to mail a package (hopefully medium). We will be in Santiago (God Willing)by the 28th or even a day or two earlier.
<I can´t seem to access your e-mail above. Possibly something to do with the internet cafe setup I´m at. can you confirm you received this to my e-mail?
Posted by Jose M. Cobian on June 12, 2011 at 11:06 pm
I plan to use your service very soon. I would like to send to you a box for storage for 2 weeks. Do I need to send you my credit card information for you to receive it and keep it for 2 weeks?

you don´t need to give me any card details, just send it to our address and we´ll keep it till your arrival.

Hi Manuel,
I plan to switch from camino del norte to camino primitivo in Oviedo. At the next postoffice (Llaredo) I’ll send you a parcel with my sportshoes. Maybe that’s size medium then!? I’ll be in SDC around 24th of July
Thanks a lot!
Hasta luego!
Adios, Britta
Posted by pilgrimhelper on July 7, 2011 at 7:37 am
Perfect Britta, have a great experience! I´m sure you know it but just in case I remind you that the 24th is the busiest day of the year in Santiago because is the night before St. James´s day; make sure you have accomodation booked before you arrive, otherwise could be difficult to find somewhere to stay.
Regards.
Manuel.

I used this service this past June when I did my camino. I sent a package from Pamplona and it was waiting for me when I checked in 3 weeks later. Very nice to know this is available and reliable. Room # 5 was also a lovely little space all my own after sleeping in Albergues every night. Highly recommended!
Thank you Manuel!

Once I know that I can give you a hand.

Posted by Amber Watts on January 20, 2012 at 4:36 pm
Hello Manuel,
I’m planning to walk the Camino from the beginning of march. If I was to send my big backpack to you from Madrid when I arrive there on the 27th of feb. Would you be closed? Because I read that you are closed until the 28th of feb?
Also do you know how much it will cost to post a backpack from Madrid to you?
Thank you for your great services!
Amber
Posted by pilgrimhelper on January 23, 2012 at 10:24 am
Hi amber,
We´ll be ready by the end of February, so, you can send your backpack to us. About the price it will depend a bit on it´s size but as an example I can tell you that the post office parcels known as “paquete azul” cost around 15 euros for a parcel around 15-20 kilos.
Best Regards.
Manuel.

Good evening. I will most likely start my Camino on Feb 26 or 27th 2012 from St Jean. I am possibly sending a small or medium package that is mostly clothing and a cell phone from St Jean. Will I pay when I pick up my box or pay in advance? My best estimate of arrival in Santiago is first week of April. Thank you for your time.
Posted by pilgrimhelper on February 11, 2012 at 4:45 pm
Hi Carlo,
you pay the storage in Santiago when you pick it up.
Thank you and “buen Camino”.

Posted by Lilian D'Auria on February 17, 2012 at 3:26 pm
I plan to start my walk in Pomplona Aug 30 from Madrid; don’t know if the hotel (have not made any reservations yet) in Madrid that I will stay overnight will allow me to leave my one medium size luggage there until I return. I plan to stay in Madrid for two days after the pilgrimage. In any event, if they don’t, would it be better to send my luggage from Madrid or Pomplona? Can I send my luggage without wrapping or placing it in a box? Is there a courier service from Madrid? What is the cost to send the soft sided luggage, weighing less than 20 lbs? Thank you for your response.
Posted by pilgrimhelper on February 17, 2012 at 4:15 pm
Hi Lilian,
if you can´t leave your luggage in Madrid and you need to send it to me you can do it from Pamplona or Madrid, there´s no difference if you use the post service, you can check fees here: http://www.correos.es/comun/tarifas/02P0201b-PaqAzulTarifas.asp It will be around 10 euros for less than 20lbs; in this case you need to place it in a box that you can get in the same post office. If you use a courier you can send it without box or wrapping and yes, there are many courier companies in Madrid: UPS, MRW, SEUR, …
Regards.
Manuel.

Hello Manuel,
This sounds like a fantastic service! I am planning to walk from Astorga to Santiago from the 10th of April 2012. I should be in Santiago on the 21st or 22nd of April. I arrive in Madrid on the 09th of April.. could I please send to you a large suitcase for pick up in Santiago? I only have 12 or so days to use, would it get to you in time? After the pilgramage I will be flying out from Santiago on the 23rd to Italy to continue my travels. Thank you! Ruth
Posted by pilgrimhelper on March 3, 2012 at 12:39 pm
Hello Ruth,
I imagine you plan to send the suitcase from Madrid or Astorga; if that is the case it will arrive in time without any problem. If you can, send me an email 4-5 days after you begin your walk, that way I´ll be able to tell you if the suitcase has already arrived .
Thanks a lot! Manuel.
Posted by Ruth on March 5, 2012 at 8:26 am
Thank you Manuel. You guessed right, i will be sending the suitcase from Madrid.Thanks again for your quick reply, i will be intouch by email.Have a good day. Ruth

Best regards,

Posted by pilgrimhelper on March 19, 2012 at 8:58 am
Hello Joe,
there is a post office at Barcelona airport. About the reservation at the Pension is better to contact us a few days prior to your arrival, that way we can know the exact date, if we wouldn’t have availability I can help you finding something similar.

Please confirm availability.

Hi Manuel: I will be arriving in Spain sometime around May 12. I will have one small piece of luggage (the size of a carry-on) that I would like to send to you. What is the safest way to ship it to you? Would it be the postal service or a courier company? Also, any recommendations for the best way to secure the luggage so that it can’t be opened?
Regards, Sonya
Posted by pilgrimhelper on April 26, 2012 at 8:24 am
Hello Sonya,
both the postal service or courier company are safe, so far the only problems that have happened were because of sending parcels from countries outside Europe that were retained in customs. For securing luggage I would lock the small suitcase and place it inside a closed box (they sell them at the post office).
Regards.
Manuel.
Posted by Sonya Flessati on April 26, 2012 at 8:30 pm

Hi There. I wanted to let you know that I posted my luggage from Burgos this afternoon, May 18. The lady at the office indicated that it would take three days. I am a bit nervous because the post office did not have a box large enough for my carryon so we wrapped it in heavy, waxy brown paper. She assured me that it will be fine. thanks, sonya

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Do I just send it using the above address and email you the date I plan to arrive? Also, does Correos allow you to send luggage in a suitcase or do I need to get a box to send it in? Thank you so much in advance!

Hi Celeste, correos allow suitcases if they are locked. We have room for your parcel, just write your name and our address on it. A few days after you send it let us know and we´ll inform you if it has arrived. Regards.

Hi Manuel,
I have got a question concerning the luggage storage in your house: I plan to walk on the „Camino Frances“ from León to Santiago de Compostela. By reason that I don’t want to carry my whole luggage on the way, I’d like to ask you if it is still possible to send a part of my luggage to you and you storage it until I arrive in Santiago de Compostela to pick it up?
Is it possible that you confirm the arrival of my luggage, when I ask you again after sending it from León to you?
Can you name the exact address where I can send my luggage to?
Thank you very much for sending me an answer
Greetings,
Felix

Hello
because I go to the camino with my dog, I would have for the trip by air, leave a dog kennel Forward. one friend, it would send to the beginning / mid October, so make sure that I can do, I am not without the airport.
now my question to you. because the box is slightly larger than the dimensions that you have stated here, I wanted to know if you would store the box anyway?
The exact dimensions of the box I was not looking, I get it tomorrow, but they should be about 105cm x 70 x 60.
my trip goes on 6 november, I’d be a couple of days ago to pick with you.
I hope and pray that it works, or I’m at a loss where I should send them to the store else to go
and sorry for my bad english 🙂
greeting
Peter

Hello Peter,
you can send the box to us even if it´s larger, the cost will be 25 euros anyway. Since it may happen that I have closed the “Pensión” for low season you can email me a couple of days before you arrive or phone me and I´ll meet you to give you the box at the time you need.
Regards.
Manuel.

I am arriving in Santiago airport on Oct 3rd at 5:45pm and catching the bus to Lugo-Sarria for the last 100k. How can I get my suitcase to you for storage? do you have shorter term storage too?
thank you,
Julia

Hi Julia,
if you are going to catch the bus to Lugo-Sarria from the bus station it will be easier for you to leave your suitcase there, they have a service of storage and charge 3,5 euros per day. Before you do it go to the information desk and tell them it will be for one week aprox. If you prefer to leave it with us you must bring it to our “Pensión” or sending it from Sarria which will make it more expensive. We don´t have a shorter term storage.
Best Regards.
Manuel.

Hi Manuel,
We had spoken previously, and I am confirming we just sent two large boxes to the address listed. We should be arriving beginning of November, and as discussed will contact you prior to our arrival to make sure we can coordinate a time to get the boxes. Can you please confirm that this is ok? Thank you for your help and we’ll see you in November.
Best regards,
Justin

Hey Manuel,
We also ended up losing more stuff and sent another small package to your facility. Can you please let me know if that will still be ok? Thank you.
Regards,
Justin

Hi Manuel
Me and a friend are due to start the Camino Frances in a few days and We will be travelling on for a number of months after the camino so will need other clothes and shoes with us after the camino. We are very keen not to carry this additional weight for the walk and would like to post then on to Santiago. We antisipate completing the Camino in Santiago around the 20/21st November 2012. Will your lugaguage storage facility still be open then as I am a bit confussed as to when you close (winter and low season)?
Please let me know if your storage facility is availabel for this time period as I have only herd positives about it and would love to use and recommend it to others in the future.
Look forward to hearing from you regards to if you are open during this period
Kind regards
Kath Hedley

Hi Kath, we´ll be closed by that date but since I leave in Santiago I could give it to you anyway, the only thing is that I need to know before you arrive what exact date and aproximate time you´ll want to pick it up. I hope this helps you. Regards.

Hi Manuel, I would like to send my large backpack but I only require storage for one week so is there another rate for this or does the full charge apply?
Posted by pilgrimhelper on October 15, 2012 at 2:56 pm
Hi Nicole, in that case I suggest you sending it to the post office in Santiago, they can store it for 15 days free of charge. Regards.
Posted by nicolelbetts on October 15, 2012 at 5:09 pm
Thanks so much for the advice, Cheers!

Hi Manuel, Is there any way you can pickup a suitcase at the airport and then store it for two weeks. I would expect an additional charge for this additional service.
Posted by pilgrimhelper on November 23, 2012 at 7:34 am
Hi Bill, I´m afraid we don´t pick up luggage at the airport. Regards.
