Bag Transfer on Invierno Route

Planning to do the full CF next April May. Did it last year following the standard route. This time we are considering doing the last section from Ponferrado on the Invierno route. Is anyone aware of companies that do bag transfers on this route. I’ve checked and NCS don’t.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
WhatsApp Senor Mar (+34 639 24 19 39) from your accommodation in Ponferrada with instructions in Spanish (use Google translate if necessary - I did) to collect and transfer for the following night. Leave your bag, where advised by your host, with €6 in cash, before 8 am. Sr Mar will reply (briefly - he's a man of few words.) You will find your bag at your lodging. Repeat. It's worked fine for me. He goes all the way from Ponferrada to SdC and is very reliable,

You can also schedule the whole route for a flat fee which is cheaper than booking by the day. In October 2021 it was ridiculously cheap less than €5/stage for a path way less traveled. On the last day it was only just to leave a thank you note and extra €.
