Lugless.com / Other Luggage Shipping Services
I might ship some skis this winter instead of checking them with the airline. Any experiences with lugless.com or similar services? What is the difference between going through an intermediary vs. directly through UPS / Fedex / USPS?

I tried to get a quote. It is showing UPS service. So, it is just an intermediary - AKA middleman. It keeps a share of what you pay.. I deal direct. Avoid middleman.

Re: Lugless.com / Other Luggage Shipping Services
Quotes I am getting from lugless are substantially lower than whatever I could ascertain from ups.com. Perhaps user error on my part. I am all for avoiding needless middlemen, just trying to figure out if others have real, actual experience with the service.Metsfan91 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 08, 2022 9:25 pmDid you try to get a quote?DarkHelmetII wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 4:43 am I might ship some skis this winter instead of checking them with the airline.
