Posting to Santiago - size limit?

[Gabi Wehler]

Will be arriving at Madrid airport May 16 and as staying several more months in Europe post Camino will have a medium size suitcase in addition to my pack. Read that there is a post office at the airport. Want to get my suitcase glad-wrapped and then send straight from the airport post office. Does anybody know whether they have size limits? Eg only cartons up to a size? Suitcase won’t fit in a box.

You will get a more accurate answer from www.correos.es than this blessed forum.

From my experience, if your suitcase is all ready to go for shipment, the Madrid airport post office will be able to take it and ship it. If you need packaging in order to mail it, then you'll need to obtain a suitable shipping box elsewhere; what they have for that purpose is not going to be large enough.

Thanks. If can’t fit in box should be wrapped w foil which should be good. Will see whether I can contact correos
