As much as these photos idealize traveling with a complete set of gorgeous leather luggage, the reality is that traveling these days is hardly glamorous.
Countless articles and blog posts have been written about the virtues of packing light…something I have working on my whole life and still haven’t quite mastered. However, there are other times when packing light is simply not an option – moving to a new country, an extended trip, a golf or ski vacation, or traveling with young children. For those times, why pay huge airline fees for multiple bags and schlep everything yourself (because let’s face it, the photos are a complete fantasy)?
Luggage Free offers an excellent alternative. Just pack your bags as if you were taking them to the airport, then call to arrange a time for your bags to be picked up at your home, office, hotel or cruise ship. Luggage Free does the rest – they will arrive at the specified time (often within 6 hours of your call), wrap your luggage in their special plastic covering and deliver it to your destination where it will be waiting for you when you arrive! Everything is tracked and guaranteed to be delivered on time. How easy is that?!
Even better Luggage Free is offering my readers and clients $25 off their services. Use code “2032935” to receive your discount or e-mail me and I will send you the coupon.
Smart travelers, pack light…even smarter travelers, travel Luggage Free!
(I was not compensated for this post…I just wanted to share what I believe is an ingenious service and the $25 coupons. However, if Luggage Free wants to offer to ship my bags on my upcoming trip to Asia, I wouldn’t argue!)

OMG Sandy – this is the best idea!! Will they go thru security for me too? I'm not kidding this luggage idea is so clever. Love all the fun stuff you find on travel! Have a wonderful week!

Now that sounds like the way to go!

Sandy, we were just talking about wanting an option like this! We packed as light as possible (not quite light for me) and got so sick of our clothing options after two weeks. It would have been lovely to have a change up that arrived midway through!
Great tip! XO

You know, this would have been the perfect solution when we rented homes in Europe and stayed for an entire month. Goodness, what a great service, no matter the cost. I will never forget my husband lugging stuff onto the plane which he "needed to keep safe" and couldn't dare to check. It was funny, and not funny at the same time. Great post, Sandy!!!

Since we're always told by our boys that we pack way too much, this is the perfect solution! No more asking the hubbies to lug oversize bags to the luggage counter. The last time we traveled our bags were lost so you know we'll be bookmarking this site.

Will definitely try this service. We often schlep our ski stuff but I noticed that Grant always mails his ahead via UPS when he's on a guy trip. Hmmmmmm….I think I need to get to send ahead, too!
I just took my first Uber ride in the city last night, so I am all about efficiency and ease. Not having to stand at those nasty carousels at the airport will probably feel the way I did last night when I stepped out of the taxi stand line at Grand Central and was at my destination in minutes! xoxo e
