Contact your hotel to make sure they will accept and hold your luggage for you. Tell them the date it will arrive.
Pack your luggage at least eight days in advance. Select your shipping company such as FedEx or UPS, or choose a professional luggage shipping company such as Luggage Forward or The Luggage Club. Call the company to make arrangements for shipping.
Give your luggage to the driver and the company will deliver it to your destination.
Contact your hotel to verify they will accept and hold a package for you. Go to your local post office and pick up a free, large flat-rate box or order one online via the Postal Service (usps.com).
Select heavy items you intend to take that will fit into the box and fill the box. Add socks or underwear to cushion the items and fill all corners of the box.
Take the sealed, addressed box to the post office and buy postage for shipping, or print a shipping label from the USPS website to save more money.
