I have a question. I hope one of you have already found a solution to this problem so I don't have to re-invent the wheel.

I'm currently in SEA, and in a few weeks I want to settle in a place for a few months to work full-time on some projects. After those two months of hard work, i want to travel (e.g. move to a new place every couple of days) while working part-time from a laptop.

In the place where I will settle, I need a bigger setup. A suitcase filled with equipment (think about 10-14KG).

But when I travel I just want to take a small laptop in a backpack and leave the rest somewhere else.

But if I travel to a few different countries and then have to go back to the place where my work stuff is at when I want to resume working.. I loose a lot of time and money.

So I'm looking for a solution. How can I store a suitcase with work stuff and have it shipped over to a new location when I like? Preferably in the cheapest way possible?

I thought of renting storage, but that doesn't take care of the shipping. I looked into DHL, but they don't have storage and it's crazy expensive. Especially for a big suitcase.

So how do I solve this? Is there some service I can send my suitcase too and they send it for me cheap whenever and wherever I need it?

Thanks in advance men.

I think a mail forwarding service might work, but I'd also guess it'd be expensive.

Idea would be that you mail them your suitcase, they hold it, and then, when you need it back, you have them forward it to wherever you need it.

The expensive part would be shipping 10-14 kilos, never mind storing it.

I use a mail scanning and forwarding service, but not for this purpose. There are a few providers out there, with different pricing schemes, so do your research.
