How do freight forwarders work?
Posted by Tortuga Backpacks on
Forwarding services give you a US address to use when ordering from online stores like ours. After you make a purchase (using that US address), the forwarding company will receive your package then ship it to you. During checkout, you will need to use the US shipping address as your billing address.
Forwarding Services: MyUS, BundleBox, Qwintry
If you know of a forwarding service that we should add to the above list, let us know.
To estimate shipping costs, the forwarding service will need to know the size and weight of the package.
Use the numbers below to find the correct shipping specs for each product.
| Shipped Weight (lbs) | Box Dimensions (in) | |
| Travel Backpack 40L | 5.5 lb | 23 x 16 x 6 in |
| Travel Backpack 30L | 4.9 lb | 22 x 14 x 6 in |
| Laptop Backpack | 2.8 lb | 21 x 13 x 5 in |
