Ship the bags you can’t stuff in a carry-on, door-to-door
Send My Bag picks up your suitcases at your old address and delivers them to your new home abroad — typically within 4–8 days, often cheaper than airline overweight-bag fees. Perfect for expats moving with more than airline allowance lets you pack.
Get a Send My Bag quote →Most international moves involve a few items that aren’t worth a full container shipment but are too much for airline luggage — winter coats, kitchenware, books, sports gear. Send My Bag fills that middle layer. Pack your suitcases, label them online, and a courier picks them up in 1–3 days. They handle customs, deliver to the new address abroad, and if you compare to airline overweight fees ($150–$300 per extra bag), it’s often cheaper.
Door-to-door pickup
Courier picks up at your old address and delivers to your new home abroad.
4–8 day delivery

Customs handled
They prepare the customs declaration. You pay any import duties (rarely apply for personal effects).
Send My Bag vs international moving company
Use Send My Bag for 1–10 suitcases / boxes — the bags you would have wanted to bring on the plane but couldn’t. Use a full international mover (see our International Moving Quotes partner) for furniture, mattresses, large kitchen appliances, or 20+ boxes. The price-per-kilo on Send My Bag is higher than container shipping, but the convenience for small loads is unmatched.
