SendMyGear · Ski & snowboard labels
Touch Down Snow-Ready
SendMyGear sells discounted UPS shipping labels for ski bags, snowboard bags, and packed winter gear. Label pricing is usually much cheaper than typical retail UPS rates—often up to around 80% off on many shipments—so compare our quote to your airline’s oversize and ski fees before you fly.
Optional Premium coverage is priced from your declared value at checkout. After payment you print the label, pack your gear, and schedule UPS pickup or drop the package at UPS yourself.
Use events & partners when you need a staffed receiver at the mountain.

What SendMyGear is
Discount UPS labels for ski and snowboard travel
Airlines love oversize fees on long ski tubes—our product is a prepaid UPS label bought at a steep discount, with optional Premium coverage based on what you declare the shipment is worth.
You pack, print, and either schedule UPS pickup or drop off—SendMyGear does not replace UPS; we sell you the label cheaper than most retail paths.
Resort flights
Quote your packed bag’s outer dimensions and compare the total to airline ski charges for the same itinerary.
Race & team travel
Separate cartons for skis vs boots each need their own label and declared measurements.
Season moves
Shipping beats dragging tubes through connecting cities when UPS can move them as freight-sized parcels.
Compare airline oversize vs our label
Run your packed length, width, height, and weight through
checkout
—that number is your discounted UPS rate. Add Premium coverage if your skis or board justify extra declared-value protection.
Wide snowboards
Wider boxes cost more to ship—measure the outer carton, not just the board graphic.
Boot bags & poles
Second packages need separate labels and weights—each gets its own UPS tracking number.
Hotels & condos
Confirm the property accepts UPS deliveries for guests and who signs—especially for long tubes.
Partners
Partner shops
can sometimes receive or repack—coordinate before you buy the label.
Other trips
Bikes,
golf, or
luggage
use the same discounted-label flow.
Packing lane
Pack so UPS accepts the shipment
Use a rigid outer box when possible, pad edges and bindings, and strap skis so they can’t slide. Your quoted price assumes the dimensions and weight you enter—measure after packing is finished.
1
Measure the outer carton
Quotes follow length × width × height of the shipping container, not “just the skis.” Include bumpers and end caps in your tape measure.
2
Bind brakes & pad tips
Floating brakes get zip-tied gentle; foam donuts or towels cushion shovel and tail. Boards get rail-first logic—edges away from box faces.
3
Eliminate slide
If the bag can yaw inside the box, add void fill or strap the bag to itself. Silence equals fewer mystery scratches.
4
Label outside, proof inside
Barcode clean and visible; duplicate paperwork + photos sealed in a pouch—high-value snow setups deserve receipts.
What flyers tolerate
Flying with skis or a snowboard
Oversized counters when you’d rather clear immigration.
Fees that spike during peak holiday weeks.
Connections where bags miss the tight turn.
Rental-car Tetris with hard tubes that won’t bend.

How to Ship To or From a Ski Shop
When booking your shipment, you can conveniently designate a ski shop as either the shipping destination or origin for your ski & snowboard gear by inputting its details into the Origin or Destination fields. Use our Ski Shop Finder to find Ski Shops in your desired area using the link in the top menu.
BE SURE TO CONTACT THE SKI SHOP PRIOR TO BOOKING YOUR SHIPMENT TO ENSURE THEY CAN ACCOMODATE YOUR SHIPPING NEEDS LIKE PACKING, REBUILDING, OR TUNING YOUR GEAR.
When selecting a Ski Shop as your shipping point, it's Essential to include YOUR first and last names, along with YOUR phone number. Providing your own phone number instead of the Ski Shop's facilitates easy communication between you and the Ski Shop staff upon your Ski's arrival.
We recommend reaching out to the Ski Shop in advance to ensure they're willing to accept and hold your Ski gear upon delivery. Most shops will tune your Ski and Snowboard gear upon arrival for a fee. (This varies by shop, so be sure to get details if you want them to tune or pack your Skis or Boards.)
How To Work With a Ski Shop to Pack, Ship, or Receive Your Gear
Utilizing a Ski Shop for shipping streamlines the process, sparing you the need to handle Ski or Snowboard maintenance or acquire packing materials. Consider hiring a pro from the shop to expertly pack and tune your skis or boards at both ends of the shipment. This not only saves time but also allows for a thorough safety check to identify any potential issues before your journey.
Here are some suggestions for collaborating with shops to facilitate Ski shipment:
Secure a Box or USE YOUR OWN TRAVEL CASE and avoid using a cardboard box all-together: The best place to grab a box is from a local ski shop or from our site. If you call ahead to the shop, they may have an extra box you can use. Otherwise, you can cut boxes to precisely fit your gear and secure them with strong packing tape.
Booking Process: Some shops prefer to handle both packing and booking, while others may request that you handle the booking after they pack your Ski. The individual who makes the booking assumes responsibility for order accuracy, including dimensions, weight, and addresses, as well as ensuring proper packing. They will also act as the primary contact for SendMyGear, receiving labels and pickup confirmations.
Communication: Whether you or the shop handles the booking, clear communication about shipment details is essential before, during, and after shipping.
Can I Ship Using My Own Travel Case?
Yes! You can ship your own case.
When using a Ski or Snowboard travel case, fasten your label with a luggage tag and zip tie. Luggage tags are readily available at most UPS partner locations, or you can create your own. Refer to the video for guidance.
To ensure your Ski or Snowboard shipment arrives promptly and intact, adhere to these label attachment guidelines:
- Remove any previous labels and markings from the exterior of your container.
- Print both pages of your paper label bundle.
- Place one page inside your container.
- Cut the other page in half and affix both pieces separately to the outside of your container. The section with the barcode serves as your primary label, while the portion without the barcode acts as your Shipping Info Summary.
Including the Shipping Info Summary sheet both inside and outside your container provides crucial shipment details. These details assist us in expediting your shipment's recovery if the label becomes illegible or detaches during transit.
Within the US, the maximum size package you can ship is 165 inches (419 cm) in combined length and girth, with no single dimension exceeding 108 inches (274 cm).
