Correos does backpack transport on the Ingles https://www.elcaminoconcorreos.com/en/rucksack-transferWho does bag transport on the Camino Engles from A Coruna?
And is it the same procedure as on the Frances, envelopes in the Alberques?
Also I spent 2 hrs looking for my bag last year on the Frances, I had tried to send it to Monte Gozo, the Xunta Alberque
and they told me they dont accept bags and couldnt tell me where it had gone to. I only speak Pigeon Spanish.
Thanks for any help given.
I haven't used Correos, but I've read their site. You can purchase all of your transfers ahead of time, and then notify them daily via email or WhatsApp of where they should pick up and deliver.Thanks Trecile, Ill have a look.
You dont know the answer to my 2nd question do you?
Thanks Peb,Correos do not send bags to the municipal albergues along the Ingles either.
You either need to stay in pensions or have the bag sent to the post office, or another private address that will take them. In Pontedeume, Betanzos and Sigueiro, that could work, but the albergue at Hospital de Bruma is miles away from a post office.

my.My knees are not great!
But we are looking to jettison a lot of stuff and do as you suggest, so we will see.
thanks for replying.
I used Correos on the CF and they delivered my pack, to hostels, hotels, pensiones or albegues, as long as they are listed with Correos.If I have pre-booked hotels and guest houses meaning no hostels or albuergues on the CP will Correos transport each day if I provide itinerary of hotels each day?
Have justwhy using bag transport?
Pack light. Cut the junk. Carry your own.
Reason I asked, is there may be some sort of physical limitation(s) that require you to use bag transport service(s).
Over 70 here and never used a bag transport on any of my four camino.
Seems to be too much hassle with worrying about if the bag made it or not.
When I walked the Ingles, I did not see or hear of anyone using a bag transport company or the Post.
Just curious.

You might want to start your own thread in the Camino Ingles sub-forum with your specific question.I have just finished the Portaguese route. I have 2 weeks left and wanted to do the Inglis from Ferrol. My feet are very sore so I need to know what the route is like, I have a problem with uphill walking. Please advise.
The worst section is now much easier , no worse than inland from PortoI have just finished the Portaguese route. I have 2 weeks left and wanted to do the Inglis from Ferrol. My feet are very sore so I need to know what the route is like, I have a problem with uphill walking. Please advise.
Only Correos did send it to Bruma albergue on the Ingles Camino,as the hospiterios receive it and hold it for the next day. They used to own the double storey house, sold it and now run it for the municipal. A rare situation. It has a restaurant opposite, and a babbling brook beside. Lovely memories from June 2019.Correos do not send bags to the municipal albergues along the Ingles either.

Advise? No! I will tell you that there are some uphill sections. I am not good on uphill sections but I lived to tell the tale. The final day is truly wonderful. To help by sending on your bag to relieve pressure on your feet, Correos run a pickup service called paqmochila. I found it is easy to use. They have a list of accepted pickup places.I have just finished the Portaguese route. I have 2 weeks left and wanted to do the Inglis from Ferrol.
