Once your shipment has been picked up or dropped off, the final step of the process begins — luggage delivery. LuggageToShip ensures that your luggage, boxes, or equipment are delivered safely, securely, and on time to your destination.

Whether you’re shipping to a home, hotel, school, or office, our global logistics partners like FedEx, UPS, and DHL handle your delivery with care. This article explains everything you need to know about how luggage delivery works with LuggageToShip, from scheduling to tracking and receiving your shipment.

Choosing the Right Delivery Date

When planning your delivery, timing is key. We recommend selecting a delivery date one or two days before you arrive at your destination. This ensures your luggage is waiting for you when you get there, and it helps avoid any last-minute delays.

If you’re not available to receive the shipment yourself, you can arrange for someone to accept it on your behalf. Family members, friends, or building staff can sign for your delivery.

LuggageToShip also offers flexible delivery options, including early or extended storage and weekend deliveries. To check availability, contact us at cs@luggagetoship.com.

Tracking Your Shipment in Real Time

Once your shipment is in transit, you can track its progress anytime. Tracking updates are available both on the LuggageToShip tracking page and on our carriers’ websites.

After the shipping label is created, your tracking number appears on your account dashboard, and you’ll also receive it by email. You can monitor every step from pickup to final delivery.

How LuggageToShip Monitors Deliveries

At LuggageToShip, we don’t just ship your luggage — we actively monitor it until it’s delivered. Our in-house logistics experts track all shipments, communicate with carriers, and handle any exceptions or delays on your behalf.

If a package is delayed, held, or redirected, our team works directly with the carrier to resolve it quickly. You’ll also receive a delivery confirmation notification from us once your shipment has been successfully delivered.

Understanding Delivery Areas and Remote Locations

While we can deliver to most standard addresses worldwide, some destinations fall under “remote areas.”

Remote areas are typically ski resorts, rural regions, or small towns that are not part of a carrier’s daily route. Deliveries to or from these areas may take longer and include an additional fee.

Don’t worry — if your address qualifies as a remote area, we’ll inform you before processing your order and discuss available delivery options.

Weekend Delivery Options

For added flexibility, LuggageToShip offers weekend delivery through our carrier partner FedEx. Weekend service is available for U.S. domestic shipments using FedEx Express 1-Day, 2-Day, or Standard 3-Day options.

If weekend delivery applies to your shipment, you’ll see these options on the quotation page during booking.

Holding a Shipment for Later Pickup

If you won’t be at the delivery address when your luggage arrives, you can request the carrier to hold your shipment at a nearby facility.

To add a hold request:

  • Contact LuggageToShip at 1-800-678-6167 or cs@luggagetoship.com.
  • Most carrier facilities can hold shipments for up to five business days.
  • For longer storage needs, you can use our free warehouse holding service until you’re ready to receive your shipment.

This option is ideal if your travel plans change or if you’re arriving later than your shipment.

Receiving Your Shipment

You don’t need to be present at the delivery location to receive your luggage.

Someone else can accept the shipment for you — such as:

  • A family member, friend, or coworker
  • Your hotel concierge or front desk
  • A building doorman or reception desk

If you’re shipping to a hotel, check with the reception staff beforehand to confirm they can accept deliveries.
If you’re shipping to a school or university, verify your campus mailroom’s rules and delivery hours before booking.

Requesting Delivery Without Signature

For maximum convenience, you can request a no-signature delivery when placing your order.

This means the carrier can leave your luggage at your address without needing someone to sign.
However, note that once a delivery is marked “delivered” by the carrier, LuggageToShip cannot file a loss or damage claim.

If you choose this option:

  • Make sure the delivery area is safe and accessible.
  • Provide simple, clear delivery instructions when booking (such as “leave at front porch” or “hand to front desk”).
    Carriers cannot follow complex instructions like “open garage door” or “find key under mat.”

Missed Deliveries and Redelivery Attempts

If you miss your delivery, don’t worry — carriers usually make another attempt.

When the first delivery attempt fails, the courier will leave a door tag or notification card with details. Try to ensure you’re available for the second delivery.

If you can’t be there again, you can:

  • Contact the carrier directly to reschedule your delivery, or
  • Request to pick up your luggage at the nearest carrier location.

For assistance, contact LuggageToShip at 1-800-678-6167 or cs@luggagetoship.com.

Tracking Issues or Shipment on Hold

If your tracking shows “on hold,” it could be due to a few reasons such as:

  • Item inspection or customs check
  • Missing label or incomplete document
  • Package rerouted or waiting for recipient update

Call us immediately at 1-800-678-6167, and our shipping experts will contact the carrier to resolve it.

If your tracking hasn’t updated:

  • It may take a few hours after pickup to display updates.
  • If tracking stops for more than one business day, or doesn’t appear six hours after pickup, contact us for support.

Our team will coordinate with the carrier to provide an update and ensure your luggage is still on track.

Delivery Tips for a Smooth Experience

To make your luggage delivery process seamless, keep these practical tips in mind:

  • Schedule delivery at least one or two days before your arrival date.
  • Make sure the delivery location is accessible to the carrier.
  • If shipping to a hotel or school, confirm they can accept the package.
  • Keep your tracking number handy for updates.
  • Provide clear delivery instructions during booking.
  • Contact LuggageToShip immediately if any issue arises.
