Luggage delivery between Litoral and Central routes

Time of past OR future Camino
April 2024
I’m planning my Camino for April. I’ve plotted my path and booked all of my accommodations already. The plan is to start in Porto, take the Literal route with stops in Labruge and Vila do Conde. I’m then cutting to Arcos and will finish on the Central route. Can anyone recommend a luggage transfer service that will cut from the Literal to the Central? I’d really like to book with one company, and I’m not seeing a way to do that. Thanks in advance for any replies!
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc

I think we used Camino Facil for that transfer.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
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.
Pilbeo is brilliant, and Jesus is excellent at replying to emails and being helpful. Have used them four times now, but not between different routes.
Pilbeo is excellent. The website says currently closed I think Jesus takes time out at this time of year.
 
Thanks everyone! You’ve given me a few options. It does seem everyone is on a bit of a hiatus. I’ll reach out when it gets closer. I’m just trying to get everything situated. I was surprised that some accommodations were already filling up for April!

It may feel like things are filling up but many places aren’t even taking reservations yet and most don’t post all their rooms on booking.com. We booked 1-2 days in advance and were fine and we stayed in some wonderful places. Focus on your training and getting used to your shoes and back pack.

I had no issue reaching the hotels I had chosen, but indeed there were two that were already booked for my dates. I was having an issue reaching anyone for luggage transport, but I was able to get that situated with Pilbeo a few weeks ago. After a ton of research, I have all of my hotels and my path set now. I won’t have to worry much about my backpack. It’ll just be a daypack, thanks to Pilbeo. I’m doing about 10 miles a day. I do that in heels in a day in Manhattan, so I should be fine. I guess we’ll see though lol.
