It’s the holiday season, which means you may soon have your arms full of suitcases and be on your way to the airport. Find out how Lalamove Hong Kong can help to lighten the load by dealing with your bulky baggage with its on-demand luggage delivery service.
When to use Lalamove Hong Kong?
There are so many moments in my life when booking a personal delivery service would have been a godsend – just one that comes to mind is returning home after some overseas retail therapy has seriously increased the luggage situation… For others, they might find themselves heading off on a surfing, snowboarding or skiing holiday with way too much bulky gear. And then there’s the very common situation when the whole family bundles into a car and realises there’s not enough room for all the suitcases. (Time to order a second vehicle!)
Lalamove is a platform that can connect you with a wide fleet of delivery vehicles via an app that is available 24/7. In short, you can arrange a luggage delivery service to conveniently designated spots in HK International Airport. So you can load up and offload your cargo or luggage without the usual hassle, frustration and cost of booking multiple vehicles to get you to the airport with all your gear.
How does the luggage delivery service work?
Lalamove has an easy-to-use app so you can book, track and customise your order in a few taps.
#1 Just like booking a car ride, you set the pick-up and delivery points to see the price differences between options. You can also schedule this order via the Lalamove app.
#2 Select your vehicle type – for airport delivery, a van is a good go-to. At this step, you can also select extra services. These include an English-speaking driver, for example, and Premium Plus, a Lalamove-exclusive delivery option that offers newer and more spacious vehicle models starting at just $25.
#3 If you wish to head to the airport with your luggage, select “Seat for Passenger” under vehicle type.
#4 Add any notes for your driver and choose the option to share your booking with your favourite drivers first.
#5 Once you have a match, your driver will contact you. Then you can track your driver in real time throughout the entire delivery process. For airport orders, there are two designated spots at the airport (they both incur a minimal extra cost). Confirm with your driver ahead of your delivery.
Are there other ways to use Lalamove Hong Kong?
Beyond travelling to the airport, there are many moments an on-demand delivery service can be helpful – for example, if you’re shopping in Hong Kong and find a piece of furniture you’d like to take home then and there. The service can also be used for a house move, or to run daily errands you don’t have time or energy for, move materials for an event, deliver documents and more!
