sending package from Porto to Santiago

Time of past OR future Camino
2022
I need to package up my laptop (used on the plane) and send/ mail from Porto up to Santiago. There are SO SO many companies that do this, including the Portuguese mail system. I would like to hear from anyone with GOOD or BAD personal experience sending a package from Portugal to Spain. I don't need links! I've got 'em. I need your experience.
Thanks!

I used this company to send a suitcase from Lisbon to Santiago last year.

Transporte Direto - Luggage Driver | Transfer Bagagens Passageiros Bicicletas

Unfortunately, I broke my wrist just past Porto and didn't make it to Santiago. I contacted Luggage Driver and they picked up my suitcase in Santiago and delivered it to the apartment where I was staying in Porto (for an extra fee of course).
 
So sorry to hear this. I do not need a luggage transfer. I am carrying a backpack for the journey. I do need to package up my computer and send it to Santiago.

I carried my backpack, but used them to send a suitcase directly from Lisbon to Santiago, and I'm sure that they take parcels too.

Have you successfully used this company? I have a VERY long list of companies that will transport Porto-Santiago. Trying to winnow it down based on experiences of fellow pilgrims.

No, but someone who has will probably be along.

I will be in Porto around the same time as you, with my laptop--did you ever get an answer for yourself and what have you decided to do?

I've decided to try to store my suitcase in Porto as I am actually coming back to fly out of Porto.
