PACKING GUIDELINES
Prepare your luggage and winter sports gear for a smooth pickup and delivery.
To help your shipment travel safely, please make sure everything is packed securely, measured correctly and ready for collection before the courier arrives.
Before pickup
Please make sure your luggage or gear is:
- packed in a strong and suitable bag or case;
- fully closed and secured;
- free from loose straps, loose handles or items hanging outside;
- measured and weighed correctly;
- ready at the pickup address during the agreed pickup window.
If your shipment is not packed safely, or if the size and weight do not match the booking details, this may cause delays or extra costs.


Skis and snowboards
Skis and snowboards should be packed in a proper ski or snowboard bag.
Please make sure:
- skis or snowboards are fully inside the bag;
- poles are secured and cannot move around freely;
- sharp edges are covered or protected where possible;
- no loose straps or handles are hanging outside;
- the bag is fully closed and strong enough for transport.
If you are sending multiple items in one bag, make sure everything fits safely and stays within the allowed size and weight shown during booking.




Ski boots and winter gear
Boots, gloves, helmets and other winter sports gear should be packed securely.
You can use a strong boot bag, travel bag or suitcase, depending on what you select during booking.
Please make sure:
- all items are packed inside the bag;
- nothing is attached loosely to the outside;
- fragile items are protected;
- the bag can be lifted and handled safely;
- the contents match what you selected during booking.
Luggage
Suitcases and travel bags should be suitable for transport and fully closed before pickup.
Please make sure:
- zippers, locks and straps are secure;
- the luggage is not overfilled;
- handles and wheels are in good condition;
- old labels or barcodes are removed where possible;
- the luggage matches the size and weight entered during booking.
Measure your shipment
Before booking, measure your packed bag or luggage carefully.
Measure the full outside dimensions, including:
- handles;
- wheels;
- side pockets;
- straps;
- any parts that stick out.
Please measure the shipment as it will be picked up, not just the empty bag.

Weigh your shipment
Please weigh your fully packed shipment before booking.
The weight should include:
- the bag or case;
- all gear inside;
- any extra items packed together.
If the courier measures a higher weight or larger size than entered during booking, this may affect the final transport cost.
Do not pack these items
Please do not include:
- loose items outside the bag;
- liquids that can leak;
- food or perishable goods;
- fragile items without protection;
- valuables, cash or important documents;
- dangerous or prohibited goods.
If you are unsure whether something can be included, please contact us before booking.
