Poster: A snowHead

I wonder if anyone can help with this one.
Are there any services available to ship you ski kit back to the UK for you after a weeks skiing (in this instance Courchevel) if you're then travelling on elsewhere before returning home?
Cheers
Graham

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Here's a couple of companies
www.firstluggage.com
www.carrymyluggage.com
Search the internet for more.
The companies use the established couriers (eg. FedEx, UPS etc) and as such collections and deliveries tend to be Monday to Friday working hours only.

grumbas,
Used to be able to do it via the railways I don't know if changes in security means you can't now.

I've just checked out both companies to take our stuff to America.....the down side to snow sports is hauling your gear.
for a 200x35x30 bag weighing up to 35kg it's looking like between £103 and £120 each way.
Anyone else tried this before? my obvious concern is how reliable they are.

Yeah I know, but I hate dragging two cases and two board bags on a train, a bus and a plane to America. When you offset what it would cost to put the extra bags both boards, boots and outdoor gearin the hold, (I can get all this in one bag upto 30kg) id rather pay someone else to haul
It from my home to our condo in colorado so I don't have to. So for the extra £70 or so id rather do that.
