Luggage transfer Lisbon to Santiago

Camiino de Santiago 2012
I am walking the Camino Portuguese in September 2017 and will have a suitcase I need transferring to Santiago from Lisbon. When I walked the Camino Frances in 2016 the Burricot service in St Jean was available to do the same. Now I'm walking from Portugal into Spain I can't find a similar service. The difficulty is I'm traveling from Australia and will be spending time in Europe after the walk, hence the suitcase.
The accommodation I booked in Santiago doesn't have any information & the Burricot service in St Jean also doesn't know anything.
There's a business opportunity here waiting for someone to take up! Much appreciated for your information.
Gracias
Juliet

You might consider taking two days to go from Lisbon to Santiago by bus/train with your suitcase. Ivar, the person who runs this website, offers left luggage service in Santiago.

I totally sympathise with you as I am pretty much in the same boat, except that I am leaving Oz a lot sooner than you are! I did part of the Via Podiensis last year and luggage transfer was super easy to arrange. This year I have asked my hotel in Santarem about luggage transfer and they told me there was no such thing and that my best bet was to find a taxi everyday. I have now decided to forget about it and limit myself to a 5kg backpack.
 
Don't despair, I found a company who have a great website and after several chats, I think I'll use them
www.eurosender.com They quoted my E29 for a 10kg bag to forward from Lisbon to Santiago, and will take about 2 days. All the details are on line. Fabulous! Good luck and have a wonderful camino.

I found a great company who will transfer the luggage, so try this: www.eurosender.com and see what you think. The rate is very reasonable, and you can calculate the cost yourself online, and have a chat if you need further help.
Thanks for all the replies.

Ah, thanks! I have, however, organised my trip in a such a way that I probably can survive with a 5kg pack. With Eurosender, I am wary of the need to potentially stay at the specified pickup/delivery spot all day to wait for the courier to turn up. But anyway, good to keep this option in mind for future trips! I hope your Camino Portugues goes well.
