Reasons why My Baggage customers ship to France:
When travelling anywhere in the world, there’s nothing better than having one less thing to worry about. My Baggage’s convenient and affordable luggage shipping services allow you to avoid the nightmare of hauling your suitcase or heavy bags on your journey, even long-haul. As such, our services make for the perfect alternative to airline baggage.
When you book a bag on your flight, you have to keep in mind your airline’s restrictive, less-than-generous baggage weight allowances when packing up all of your personal belongings. It means you may have to make the sacrifice that no one wants to make; leaving many of your beloved personal belongings behind. Even then, you might still be faced with a nasty surprise at the check-in desk, meaning you’ll have to cough up extortionate excess baggage fees. Particularly when travelling long-haul, it’s not ideal.
Thankfully, My Baggage allows you to ship a massive 30kg per suitcase at fantastic low rates. You also have the option to pay extra for even heavier bags, if you need to. That means you’ll never have to leave any of your beloved possessions behind again.
Whether you’re a student travelling to France to study abroad, or perhaps you’re emigrating to France with your family; our generous baggage weight allowance and the ability to send as many items as you like with us can come in particularly useful. It allows you to bring more possessions with you than if you were relying on a few checked pieces of luggage.
Shipping your excess baggage to France with My Baggage also makes that dreaded, tedious wait for the appearance of your suitcase at the luggage carousel in the airport a thing of the past.

Of course, shipping your belongings via My Baggage isn’t the only way to get all of your excess baggage to France. If you need to transport your things to France, you should make yourself aware of the numerous options available; after all, some options will suit your personal needs better than others. Here are just a few alternative options:
International Removals
If you are relocating to France permanently, or if you are considering accepting a lengthy business contract there, you might consider transporting everything with an international removals company. This means you can transport all of your worldly belongings – including bulkier items such as furniture – in one single go, and they can meet you there!
Sea Freight
If you specifically need to send a number of larger items to France – perhaps a sofa, a fridge or even your car – you might want to consider sea freight, in which your items are shipped via cargo ships in shipping containers. Although a relatively inexpensive option, it is important to note that shipping your possessions by sea freight can be an exceptionally slow voyage, meaning you could be without your belongings for quite some time. Depending on the route of the shipment, you could be waiting for up to two months for your things to arrive with you in France. You also need to consider the transportation of your items to and from ports, both departing and on arrival in France.
Air Freight
Air freight also allows you to send exceptionally large, bulky items to France that may be otherwise difficult to transport to such a destination. Although a fast option of transporting your belongings; air freight tends to be a more expensive option, as it is charged by weight and volume. You also need to consider the transportation to and from airports.

At My Baggage, we don’t just ship personal effects and suitcases to France – we can send parcels and gifts, too.
