Send My Bag Launches 300 New Routes to and From Italy
Send My Bag has today announced over 300 new worldwide baggage shipping routes to and from Italy. For the first time the Send My Bag service is now available from Italy to popular Send My Bag destinations such as Australia and Dubai.
All routes as well as prices can be found on our Italy destination page.
Collection Time Windows Arrive
At Send My Bag we're constantly rolling out new features, some you may notice, some you may not, but it's rare for 48 hours to pass without something new appearing.
We generally prefer the experience to speak for itself but we couldn't let the addition of collection windows go by unmarked.
As a company our goal is to make your travel experience hassle free and we recognise that waiting for a collection is just not fun!
We'll not go into great detail but suffice to say it's extremely important that a driver collects all items in an area on any given day and in order for this to be achieved the route must be planned efficiently, this makes offering collection times without using additional drivers and increasing charges quite complicated.
