Packing cubes delivered to London
London travellers usually get to the airport by tube or train, so a bag you can carry up a flight of stairs beats a bag you have to drag.
Do you deliver packing cubes to London?
Yes, we deliver across London, free over £20 and dispatched within 48 hours. With Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and City all in reach, most Londoners get to the airport by tube or train - so the bag you want is one you can carry up a flight of stairs, not one you drag.
Five airports and a lot of stairs
London is the only place in the UK where the airport question is genuinely open every time. Heathrow for long-haul, Gatwick for the widest leisure map, Stansted and Luton for the budget carriers, City for a fast turnaround on business. They are not interchangeable, and neither are the cabin bag rules of the airlines that fly from them.
What unites them is that most people get there on public transport. The Piccadilly line, the Gatwick Express, the Stansted train - all of them involve at least one staircase, one gap to mind and one carriage where there is nowhere to put a large case. That is the real London luggage constraint, and it has nothing to do with the airline.
The practical consequence is that weight and shape matter more than capacity. A bag you can lift with one hand while holding a phone in the other is a genuinely different object from one you have to wheel and heave. Packing in compressed blocks keeps the load stable and the case small enough to go overhead on a train.
London also does a very high volume of short trips - two nights in a European city, back on Sunday night. That is the trip where a small, well-packed bag beats a big half-empty one, because you are carrying it through two rush hours as well as an airport.
What we would pack for this trip
- Black Compression Packing Cubes, Set of Three: a case small enough to go overhead on the train
- Navy Compression Cubes, Small Medium Large: two nights away, carried not wheeled
- Clear Toiletry Bag Set of Three: one liquids bag that stays packed between trips
Packing cubes delivered to London – FAQs
Do you deliver across London?
Yes, to every London postcode at the same price as the rest of the UK - free over £20, a flat £5.99 under it, dispatched within 48 hours and delivered within eight days. We are online only, so there is no London shop to collect from.
Which airport's cabin bag rules should I pack to?
The airline's, not the airport's - they are set by the carrier and vary far more than people expect. If you fly a mix of budget and legacy airlines out of London, pack to the strictest one you use and the bag is always within the rules.
