Pop Century Resort - Shipping Desk/UPS?

[pullen]

We will be checking into Pop Century tomorrow and it will be our first time staying on Disney property. We do have a little extra room and weight available in our check on luggage but not a lot. While we don't plan on buying a lot of stuff, I'm thinking we can ship our stuff home cheaper than what it would cost to check another bag. Also, I don't want to trust our souvenirs to the rugby match of airport luggage handling.

I'm looking to buy some nice prints or possibly a nice piece of Disney artwork and some nice pint glasses. We definitely plan on taking advantage of the ability to have stuff sent back to our room at point of purchase but I'm wondering if there is a service counter somewhere at Pop Century where I can take all of our souvenirs to have properly packed and shipped home towards the end of our trip. If so, would anyone know of the hours that this service would be available. We will pretty much be on the go non stop the entire trip.

Thanks in advance.

There isn't as far as I know - but then, I don't know everything. Lobby Concierge might be able to do it for you, but there's no dedicated counter or service. The stores will ship purchases for you, but the best way to do that is to buy everything at one store in one trip. The advantage is, no sales tax.

The stores can handle the shipping part right when you buy the items.

POP Century is a value resort and I don't believe this service is offered. But as stated you can ship home directly from the store you purchased it at.

The POP does offer shipping home service! We shipped a package back just a few weeks ago, it took a few minutes longer then at a location that has a shipping center but they do it! The woman was very helpful and we had no issues. We did it right at the front desk.

That being said you can ship directly home from the stores at Disney

Have a fabulous trip!

Thanks for the info everyone! We'll probably just plan on shipping anything breakable at the store when we buy it then. I'm sure it will cost more than doing 1 shipment but less I have to worry about on the trip. We're taking 2 bags and they're both within 10 pounds of the the 50 pound weight limit on the flight. It will cost another $60 to bring a third bag and it's just more to deal with. If we pay $60 in shipping, it will still be worth it.

For breakables - the ship home direct from the store is the way to go. Disney will replace anything broken then. I've had a snow globe arrive broken - what a mess that made! and an ear hat ornament arrive broken and Disney replaced them both quickly since it was direct from the Christmas Store and the Emporium at MK.
If I'd packed and shipped them from the resort and they'd arrived broken - I would have been out of luck.

I have also shipped home a print from the Art of Disney store that was so well packed, I had to take scissors to the bubble wrap to get it open - that arrived undamaged.
