Luggage transport from Valenca do Minho train station to Porrino

Hello,

My trip starts in a couple of days and I am trying to finalize my luggage transport. Everything else has been set and easy when talking with providers but the only difficulty I'm having is finding one that can transport from the Valenca do minho train station to O Porrino. Tuitrans has said they can do it, but they want me to book my entire trip with them with a final total of €81. This seems a bit steep but Top Santiago hasn't responded yet about their prices and I feel like I'm running out of time.

Is the €81 price fair for transport from Valenca - Porrino - Redondela - Pontevedra - Armenteira - Vilanova de Arousa - Escrivitude - Santiago ?

Has anyone used a service before that picks up at the train station or somewhere in Valenca?
 
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.
Top Santiago is able to provide the service - with pick up from the fire station in Valenca which is about a 10min walk from the train station. Total is €56 for the entire trip to Santiago which I think is fair.

Not quite the answer to your question, but when I arrived at Valenca station, I put my pack in a taxi and sent it by itself to my booked albergue in Tui while I walked through the Castillo and over the bridge.
I then used Camino Facil for the next several days.
You might be able to arrange something similar with them.

I used them as well and they lost my bag twice! If I hadn’t had an Apple AirTag in it, thru would never have found it. Then they took their time getting it to me stopping at a bar. I would find another company to use. 3 times I beat my bag to my accommodation. They didn’t have good control or contact with the van drivers. It was very, very frustrating which hampered my Camiño.
