Service to ship clothes to destination & avoid suitcase?
 
First time poster here -- I'm a consultant based in New York so am constantly traveling to various places and am wondering if anyone knows of a service that'll manage getting my clothes to wherever I need to go. I don't want to trek my roll-aboard around and I don't want to ship it every time -- just want my relevant travel clothes to be at my hotel when I arrive, whether it's my suit & shirts for work or a weekend getaway.

Anyone know of something that does this?

FedEx or UPS spring to mind or, if you have more time, the Post Office.

I presume that you are planning on doing the actual clothes selection and packing. In that case, you can simply use Fedex, UPS or USPS. All have services which range from delivery first thing the next AM to three+ days and the rates vary by weight and delivery speed. Also useful on the way home to just stuff dirty clothes in the same box, relabel, have it picked up and returned to you.

If you are routinely traveling to the same location, most higher-end properties will take your dirty clothes, have them dry-cleaned/laundered while you are away and then held and delivered to your room just before you arrive.

As a former consultant-- if your clothes are critical to your job (e.g. Having your suit ready), your safest and most convenient option is to "trek" with your carry on. What's the big deal about having one rolling carry on?
