Hi there,I will have the first question.
It is my understanding that any post office in Spain (easier to ship when in Spain) will send luggage to you. Is there also a special Pilgrim's rate? I read it someplace, but not sure.
We will be sending a suitcase in Sept to you, from Barcelona.
Here is your answer...I will have the first question.

I have never had any problems during the years I have offered this service.. but laptops and expensive content always makes me nervous. Especially if you are mailing it to me since it might get damages on the way. But I will store what you send me/drop off.Is is secure to leave my laptop with my suitcase for storage?
Most likely yes (it goes by size).Also to store a carry-on suitcase and backpack - would that be the price of two large boxes?
I just wrote this up, hope this answers it:I have read various questions from people asking about the rules on sending in items from outside Spain - either from within the EU (usually France) or outside it. Can you clarify that please? Thanks Ivar, and hope you, Mrs Ivar and the baby are well.
Hi there,Embarking on the Camino next week (hopefully!), and plan on sending a package to you @ivar for storage. We should be in Santiago as early as March 3rd, as late as March 5th, Palm Sunday. Will the shop be open before we leave on Monday, March 6th?
When you pick it up in SantiagoI´m sending you a suitcase from Le Puy using SendmyBag. How do I pay for the storage?
You don't have to, we store what we receive.. you pay for the storage when you pick it up.How does the process goes? Should I contact Ivar before sending my luggage? Where should I pay in casaivar website?
You might try sending a private message to @wisepilgrim who is now in charge of this service.Hey Ivar, trying this chat because I sent u my muchila and i cant seem to get answer anywhere and in a real hurry.
Best to send @ivar a private message if he doesn't respond in this thread.Can I leave a backpack with you while I travel in Portugal for three weeks, I am in Santiago atm?
Hi there,Can I leave a backpack with you while I travel in Portugal for three weeks, I am in Santiago atm?
thank you!You can use the service of a company called Luggage Driver. They deliver your bag to the Loop Inn hotel in Santiago where you can pick it up at your leisure because they have 24/7 reception.
Thank you for the great suggestion and tip.You can also send it to yourself at the Santiago de Compostela post office, to be collected.
Just watch out, they only hold it for a month maximum and so that is where Ivar's is better for longer times (probably always better).
Also watch that you don't arrive in the weekend because the post office will be closed.
You can pay for up to 45 days storage, but it would only be if you are mailing from within Spain.Just watch out, they only hold it for a month maximum and so that is where Ivar's is better for longer times (probably always better).
In case @ivar doesn't see your message you should send an email to luggage@casaivar.comHi Ivar, when i arrive in Santiago i will be there for approx 2 days before i walk to Finnisterre and Muxia. I have already forwarded 3 or 4 items to you for storage. Can i collect these items, sort my stuff and put my case back into storage until my return from the end of the earth? Extra charge or simply a continuation of initial lodgement fee? Russell Dunn
