Travelling to or from Finland? Our convenient and affordable luggage shipping services make transporting your luggage there and back an easy process.
My Baggage takes the stress out of transporting your luggage to Finland. We offer an alternative to transporting your luggage overseas; you can wave goodbye to expensive airline baggage fees and out-of-budget removals. Our low-cost and convenient door to door collection and delivery service helps you to save time and money whilst you travel.Finland is a Northern European nation which borders Sweden, Norway in the north, and Russia. On the south side of Finland is Estonia. Finnish and Swedish are the two official languages of the country, which boasts a population of 5.5 million people.
Helsinki is the capital and largest city in Finland, which receives visitors all year round, but particularly around Christmas time. Jyvaskyla and Tampere are also popular destinations.
If you’re flying to Finland, traditionally it makes sense to carry your baggage with you on your flight. However, in doing so, you need to keep in mind your airline’s often restrictive baggage weight allowance. It could mean that you might have to make the sacrifice that no one wants to make, which is leaving some of your personal belongings behind. And even then, you might still be slapped with excess baggage charges at the check-in desk.
When it comes to relocating, hiring a traditional international removals company to transport your belongings overseas makes sense. Generally speaking, they are excellent for shipping large, bulky items such as sofas, beds and even your car. However, if you happen to find yourself on a strict budget and a tight timescale for your big move, you might find that the cost and transit times don’t exactly align with your needs. After all, some international removals can take up to two months to arrive, depending on the route.
My Baggage provides a welcomed alternative to transporting your luggage. We strive to remove all of the stress and costs involved. When you choose to ship your luggage with us, you can wave goodbye to expensive airline baggage fees and out-of-budget removals.
