Switching resorts during a stay?

[jamstew]

I'm consideriing a solo "exploratory" trip in October in preparation for taking my children and grandchildren to WDW later on. I'd like to try out three different resorts (WL, AKL and POR) during my stay to (1) see what the resorts themselves would be like for small children and (2) checking out the transportation system. I'll be traveling without a car.

If anyone has switched resorts during a stay, how did you go about getting your luggage transferred between resorts? I travel light and could conceivably put my stuff in a locker while in the parks, but would prefer just to have it moved on to my next resort. Suggestions?

It is really very simple. I've always called bell services the night before to verify the policy, and to let them know that we're moving resorts. Then, the day of the switch, I call bell services once our luggage is ready, wait with the bags until someone comes to get them, then off to the parks You can check into your next resort like you normally would (e.g. right away if you want, but your room may not be ready). Then call bell services once you're in your room and they will deliver your bags - usually around mid to late afternoon. You must be in your rooms and call them to get your bags I think - at least I've always been there...

So in simple terms:
Call to move them.
Call to pick them up.
Easy

The first time I was worried, but that was many trips ago. Now it's no big deal. Have a nice time checking out the different resorts

Like Jamie said, it's super easy!!! Just call Bell Services and explain that you're transferring resorts. They'll walk you through the process.
