Sending luggage
After you attach your shipping labels, you'll need to get your items into the hands of FedEx or UPS. There are a few ways you can do this:
Local dropoff
Cost: Free
Best for: Most travelers who want the most convenient option.
Drop your bags at any nearby UPS or FedEx location where they will also have any shipping supplies you need.
Existing pickup
Cost: Free
Best for: Shipping from the office, golf course, campus or most hotels.
Items can be shipped from any commercial address that already has a scheduled pickup. Your labeled bags must be in the area where UPS or FedEx pick up.
Doorstep pickup
Cost: $6/bag
Best for: People who are home all day or have a doorman
If none of the other options work for you, we can dispatch UPS or FedEx to collect your things between 9am and 7pm.

Frequently asked questions
How do I ship a suitcase with LugLess?
You book online, we find the cheapest FedEx or UPS rate for your route, and we send a digital shipping label right to your phone. Drop your suitcase at any nearby FedEx Office, UPS Store, Walgreens, or Duane Reade — or pay $6 per bag to have it picked up from your door.
How much does it cost to ship a suitcase?
Domestic suitcase shipping starts at $25 per bag. Final price depends on bag size, weight, distance, and delivery speed. A standard checked-size bag under 50 lbs typically runs $30–$70 between major U.S. cities. See your exact rate with the bag calculator before booking.
What's the cheapest way to ship a suitcase?
For most travelers, LugLess. We compare FedEx and UPS rates and pick the cheaper option for your specific route, then pass volume discounts along when you ship multiple bags. Standard ground shipping (2–6 business days) is the budget pick — express options run faster but cost more.
Can I ship more than one suitcase at a time?
Yes — and you'll save money. Two suitcases don't cost twice as much as one. We get volume discounts from FedEx and UPS and pass them along. Families, groups, and golfers usually save the most by shipping multiple bags together rather than checking each at the airport.
How long does it take to ship a suitcase?
Standard ground shipping takes 2–6 business days depending on distance. Express options are 1–3 business days, and there's always a next-business-day option for last-minute bookings. For peak travel periods (summer, winter holidays), ship 5–7 days ahead to leave a buffer.
Is shipping a suitcase safe?
Yes. Every shipment runs through FedEx or UPS with full real-time tracking. Basic carrier coverage is included on every booking; you can add LugLess Value Protection at booking for higher-value items. With 14,000+ verified Trustpilot reviews and 450K+ travelers shipped, LugLess is the trusted way to send your bags.
Do I need to box up my suitcase before shipping?
No. Soft and hard-sided suitcases ship as-is — no boxing or extra packaging needed. Remove old airline tags and stickers from previous trips so the new label doesn't get confused. Attach your LugLess label firmly to the outside of the bag, and tuck a copy inside as a backup in case the outside label comes off in transit.
