Luggage transfer along the coastal route

Portugese coastal route (2019)
Does anyone know of a company that does luggage transfers on the Portugese coastal route? I have only found companies operating on the Central route.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I could not see Tui Trans operating on the Coastal Route. It would be great if they do, because they seem to be fairly cheap.
 
Yes Tuitrans are good. But from Galicia you can use Oficina de Correos who charge 4€ per stage if you go all the way to Santiago or 5€ for one off stages.
 
Do you know if Tui and Caminofacil pick up and deliver all along the coastal route or just main villages? We plan on breaking up stages.
Also you you know the cost per bag/per day?
Does the Portugal postal service have a Camino shipping system to Santiago like Spain?

Although I cannot confirm it because I won’t be on the Camino until October, I sent an email to Tuitrans and received the following reply from them.

“The price stage by stage depends of the kilometers. For example, from Esposende to Viana do Castelo the price of the service is 8€ (the price is different if you only want one stage or if you want all stages)

If you are interested in service, you can send us your itinerary (with accommodations and dates), the full name of the person who is in booking accommodations and a phone number in case we need to contact with you.”

I would be interested in hearing how you arrange your baggage transport!
 
We aren’t booking ahead except the day before. It sounds like it can get expensive. I think we might send a box of unnecessary stuff from the post office in Terminal 1 in Madrid to Santiago for 26 euros and pick it up at the end. We fly from MAD to Porto so we can lighten our load. (We’ve been traveling for a few months so we have non Camino stuff in our packs.)
 
Hello everyone,
I'm a newbie to this forum and all things Camino, but I would like to also know what companies do luggage transfer. We are doing the central route from Porto to Santiago, single nights along the way except for Tui, this is our rest night. Thanks for any replies. Btw, we will have all our accommodation booked in advance, if this helps.

Caminofacil does the Central and the Coastal Portuguese routes, as well as the Camino Frances. , you can send them your accommodation list, and pay in advance. Works flawlessly.
