Taormina is up a hill
The town is 200 metres above its station and the cable car does not take a 23 kg case gladly. A bag that leaves from your hotel door never sees the hill again.
Bag It Home · Sicily
Ship your luggage home from Sicily.
Taormina sits on a hill above its own station, Catania's airport is where most Sicilian trips end, and the ceramics from Caltagirone do not fit in the case that was full on arrival. Tell us where the bags are: Taormina, Catania, Palermo, Syracuse, Cefalù or the Aeolian ferry pier. We collect at the door, insure them from that second to your door at home, and you fly from Fontanarossa with a daypack.

Why Sicily is different
A courier wants a box, an address and you at home.
Two airports, far apart
Catania serves the east, Palermo the west, and the road between them is three hours. Collection from the hotel the day before means the airport morning is a taxi and a boarding pass.
Ferries and islands
Lipari, Favignana, Ortigia's bridges: every island hop is a bag carried on and off a boat. Ship it from the last hotel on the mainland and the islands are a daypack.
Where we collect: hotels, B&Bs and apartments in Taormina, Catania, Palermo, Syracuse and Ortigia, Cefalù, Ragusa, Noto, Agrigento and Trapani; Catania and Palermo airports on request. Tell us the address and the time window; we arrange the rest through our partner network.

Questions from Sicily, answered.
Can you collect from a hotel in Taormina?
Yes. The driver comes to the door, hill included. Agree a time window on WhatsApp and leave the bags with reception or hand them over yourself.
How much does it cost to ship luggage home from Sicily?
From €150 per bag, door to door. Weight, size and destination set the exact price, and you get it on WhatsApp before you commit. Collection in Sicily is included.
Can you send a bag from Sicily to another city in Italy?
Yes. Catania to Lecce was one of this autumn's jobs: typically €100 to €150 a bag within Italy, 2 to 3 working days, hotel to hotel.
Can you deliver to an apartment or an Airbnb?
Yes, when someone can sign at delivery. We check with the host first. If nobody can, we deliver to a hotel reception or hold the bag until you say.
I leave tomorrow. Is that too late?
Usually not. Collection needs one working day's notice in most cities. Tell us when you fly and the first possible collection day comes back in the reply.
Does the bag need a box?
Leaving Italy, yes: every bag ships inside a cardboard box, and the hotel reception usually has one. Within Italy a sturdy suitcase can travel as it is. We tell you which applies with the quote.
Can I ship liquids, perfume or shampoo?
No. Liquids and aerosols stay in your hand luggage. The carriers refuse them and the whole bag would be stopped.
How much does it typically cost?
Typically about €350 a bag to the USA, Canada or Australia, €160 to €200 within Europe and €100 to €150 within Italy, collection included. Weight, destination and the day set the firm price, which you get on WhatsApp before you pay.

P.S. The quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing. The worst case is you learn what it would have cost, and carry the bag anyway.
