Cut Down On Luggage: Mail Your Stuff Straight To Disney
We’ve all been there! The days continue to tick down towards your next Walt Disney World vacation and you keep setting aside things you’ll need to pack for your trip when you finally realize that you’ve got just more than will comfortably fit in your luggage. You try the sit and zip method, but there’s no way. . . . . let’s be reasonable here. . . . . you need another bag. Or do you?
Bringing additional luggage when traveling is always a pain in the . . . . . churro. Whether you’re a childless millennial or a parent with children to attend to, the idea of grabbing and dragging additional luggage through an airport is undesirable to say the least. Plus, don’t forget that with the Magical Expresses health and safety policies [and ultimate demise] collecting and lugging luggage is a part of the Walt Disney World experience some might not have had for the past 15 years or so.
So what is a Disney fan with slightly more than their struggling luggage can handle to do? Why not consider mailing some of your items straight to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel?
Offered as part of Walt Disney World Resort’s Mail Services, guests can not only send packages and letters from their resort hotel, they can also receive packages and letters. In other words, you can pack a box full of all those odds and ends that didn’t fit in your suitcase and send them straight to your hotel. It’s honestly as simple as that.
Mail services at Walt Disney World are something that I’ve been using for years. Whether I’m sending something to my Disney Resort hotel or home at the end of my stay, having the option to use the post can be incredibly convenient. If this seems like something you’d like to do, you can find out exactly how to send a box to your resort hotel on the Walt Disney World website by clicking HERE. It simply involves ensuring that the letter or package is addressed correctly with the mailing address of your resort hotel, the word “Guest” on the front and the date of your arrival.
👻 Attention Ghouls: Please be sure to check the Walt Disney World Resort website’s Mail Services page before sending your package to ensure that you are up to speed with all the current policies. Though we do aim to provided you with the most up to date information here at 2 Foolish Mortals, it never hurts to double check! Thanks for your understanding.
Now that you know sending a package directly to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel is an option, the next question worth asking is whether or not it’s right for you. There will be some of you out there for whom sending a package is an obvious choice or even what I might loosely describe as a necessity. I’m talking about parents with small children or even people who find themselves unable to move multiple pieces of luggage on their own. In some cases, sending a package directly to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel might even be a budget decision. [This one takes a little more fanageling, but if you’ve got free shipping offers to take advantage of then this can be significantly less than paying for additional luggage with your airline of choice.] That having been said, packing a box and bringing it to your post office to ship to your Disney Resort hotel isn’t always going to be cost effective or worth the expense for everyone. This is where it can be important to crunch numbers [if budget is a high priority for you] or determine if the convenience is worth the expense.
