mochila express

[Robo]

Hi everyone.

Due to injury I am being a 'tourigrino'.....

So far I have been using jacotrans. Great service. Pop the money in the envelope each day etc.

Now I'm into Galicia the hostels seem more keen on mochila express.

Bit confused about how this works. Last night I just got a sticker for my bag and paid the e3 to the hostel.

Is that normal? No envelopes to stick on the bag. Just pay the host...

Same again tonight. I guess that's the system...

Sorry to hear about your injury! I'm glad using the services of Jacotrans and Mochila Express allows you to continue on.
Take care of yourself and Buen Camino,

Yes. Xacotrans used to be the main player, but it seems there are now more choices. I suspect (no evidence) that some lodging operators have joined together to provide this service, or at least participate. We had a few occasions last year when we had left the Xacotrans tag on the bag, and it arrived at the other end with another tag.
They all seem to be trustworthy and as long as it gets there, well....
Particularly in Galicia, the lodging folks all seem to be well versed in livery service. So, carry on, take care of your injury, have a great Camino.
