If you’re like me and have finally reached a point where family vacations are enjoyable—and don’t feel like a full-time job in recovery—you’ll appreciate this new innovation. Now that those double strollers are a thing of the past, traveling has become a breeze, but packing for a family trip? That’s a whole other story! Thankfully, there’s DUFL, a new app designed to elevate your travel game by handling all your packing and shipping needs.
According to CEO Jake Foster, he developed DUFL out of sheer frustration with the hassle of packing and lugging around suitcases during his travels. And let me tell you, I completely relate! Here’s how it works: First, you download the app, create an account, and request a DUFL suitcase that magically appears at your doorstep. Just toss your belongings inside and ship it back using FedEx. Once it arrives at the DUFL facility, their team will take inventory, snap photos, and neatly repack everything so that when you’re ready to depart, they can send your gear directly to your destination.
Isn’t that just the stuff of dreams? But hold on, there’s even more! When your vacation wraps up and reality calls, DUFL will swing by your hotel, pick up your suitcase, wash and clean everything inside, and store it for your next adventure. While this service primarily caters to business travelers who tend to stick with the same wardrobe, it could make the packing process a bit easier for everyone. I mean, call me when they roll out a family-sized option, please!
Now, you may be wondering about the costs associated with feeling like a travel rockstar. The storage service is priced at $10 a month, and each roundtrip shipment for your bag will cost you $99. Sure, it’s a bit pricey, but considering the cleaning, repacking, and the airline fees for checked luggage—which can vary from $25 to $100—it’s not too shabby. Of course, if you’re storing your things at DUFL, you may end up needing a whole new wardrobe too! But hey, who said convenience didn’t come with a price tag?
