I was told today that there’s an Albergue in Santigo That will hold packages. Does anyone know the name of it?
 
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.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Not sure, but @ivar the forum owner provides a storage service in Santiago.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc

What kind of package? Is it something that is being mailed to you, or will you leave it yourself.
As @Robo said you can send packages to @ivar fir storage.
 
I can hold packages if you like. There is a cost, see the link above. Sometimes if you make a reservation at a hotel in Santiago you can also send it there. This does usually not have any costs.
 
I sent half the stuff my older son packed (way too much!) through the post to Ivar. It worked out well. My son's pack was lighter, he was less grumpy, and his stuff was waiting for us. And! I got to meet Ivar. :)

Hi Ivar, do you / can you store a bicycle for possibly up to a week? I'm touring some of the caminos in Galicia for the last 2 weeks in September, have to return home (S Spain) but will return if the weather is good; looking at options. Thanks

If I have space I can... as it is right now, I have space but September usually means my storage room is filling up. But if it is a bike with not much extra stuff (bike box, etc) I should be able to.
