Every bridge is a staircase
Between your hotel and the water there are steps, then more steps. That is the whole reason luggage in Venice costs more in effort than anywhere else in Italy.
Bag It Home · Venice
No wheels, no vans, and a bridge with steps every ninety metres. In Venice a courier's "hotel pickup" means a porter, a vaporetto and a fee at every stage, and you organising all three. Tell us where the bags are. We take them off your hands in the city or at Piazzale Roma, insure them from that second to your door at home, and you board the train to Milan with a daypack.

Why Venice is different
Between your hotel and the water there are steps, then more steps. That is the whole reason luggage in Venice costs more in effort than anywhere else in Italy.
A van stops at Piazzale Roma or Tronchetto; from there it is porters and boats. We arrange the handover where it is simplest for you and take the mainland leg ourselves.
If you fly out in a few days from Venice's airports, or leave by train for Milan, the bag you ship today is the bag you don't carry across one more bridge.
Where we collect: hotels and apartments in the sestieri, Piazzale Roma, Santa Lucia station, Mestre; Marco Polo airport on request. Tell us the address and the time window; we arrange the rest through our partner network.
How it works
Tell us where the bags are and where they're going; a real person sends the price on WhatsApp, usually within minutes. A driver collects at the time you choose. The bags travel insured and meet you at home, with a photo at handover. Still travelling? We hold them and ship on the date you choose, so they arrive after you do. The full picture, customs included, is on the Bag It Home page and in the guide to shipping luggage home from Italy.
Hand it over→keep travelling→we deliver it home to you
At your hotel if it has a desk, at Piazzale Roma or Santa Lucia station if that is easier, or in Mestre. We agree the point and the time on WhatsApp.
From €150 per bag, door to door. The exact price depends on weight, size and destination, quoted on WhatsApp before you commit.
Yes. Hand them over in Venice, finish the trip with a daypack, and we ship on the date you choose.
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.
