Airport Mailers

I accidentally left my $ 250 Benchmade knife in my pocket… So the airport security told me I can leave it in the airport mailers box… So I did it told me the cost would be $ 12 … But I got charged $ 22 … three weeks later I call and I asked what’s going on with my package… and they told me that they had no record of my package showing up… When I told them I got charged they go hang on oh it looks like we received your package but something is going on with our computer… but your package will be shipping out on Monday and I should be there in 3 or 4 days… So after the end of the day I went home look in the mail and there is my package with my knife in it on the same day they told me that they have not shipped it out yet… That just shows me that they do not have any record of their packages cannot keep track of their packages and have no idea what’s going on with their system I wouldn’t use anything but airport mailers… I am still happy I got my package safe and sound but I would never trust them again

Forgot to put my leatherman into my checked bag. Used the airport mailer stand to ship it home. All the prices were written on the paper that you fill out so no problem there. Dropped my knife into the bin and the knife was only inside of a ziplock bag that you get at the stand. I was very doubtful, didn’t really have mich confinence that i would be seeing it again but it showed up at home one month later.
Seems like it should only take a few days to get to your house because the package is already at the air port and can be shipped from there. But it can’t. Airport mailers actually takes the items from their kiosk bin at the air port and brings them to their facility where they propey package the item in a buble wrap emvolope and then take your info that you filled out on the card at the air port, so they can postmark the package and ship it out. This is why it takes a month to get home. Theres a lot of in between steps thay are needed. Anyways they DO get your knives/​liquids/​gels home so just be patient and wait it out.

Stupid me, packed my $ 25 Gerber into my suitcase but then put the same pair of pants on for my flight was wearing day before and didn’t notice my $ 200+ Benchmade knife still in my pocket until the beeping at TSA … Duh. Thank goodness for these guys… And thank goodness we were very early for our flight at SFO… I ran back and found the drop box etc. sweating bullets for a month and a day when it showed up at my shop. Really wish they would insure value we place on item… Also all costs are spelled out on the form so I don’t understand what others are bitching about regarding pricing. Thanks for getting my treasured knife back to me!!!

Airport Mailers provides drop boxes at the security checkpoints at DIA and offers to «Mail it Home Safely» any items that you forgot to leave behind. They currently charge $ 12.95 to $ 24.95 plus postage for this service. The problem is they don’t bother to insure the shipment when returning your item. When my item was lost by the USPS they refused to offer me any compensation. They have twice said they would credit back my card but have failed to follow through on that offer as well. At this point I have paid them to lose my item for me. Hope this helps someone else not to have the same experience.

Terrified I won’t receive my item with a 200.00 value… my fault but I’d hoped this company was reputable. .I have left three messages they charged my card and it was mailed Nov. 30^th. .still no call and no package… Shame these companies can stay in business… until I get a call back I won’t change my review… and I will research this business.

June 9^th 2014 leaving SFO I forgot I’d bought a 5oz shea butter lotion tub at Benziger’s winery tour. Got stopped in the security line but not all was lost, they referred me to Airport Mailers. So I left security, found the kiosk near Virgin, filled it out neatly and put the tub in the bag and went back through security.
I thought it was $ 12.95+cost of postage to mail something, acceptable. Turns out liquids or liquid-​like substances are $ 21.95+postage for some inexplicable reason.
Airport Mailers does warn of long shipping times but here it is JULY 10^th and I still don’t have my package. They charged my credit card June 25^th, so you’d think I’d have it.
Useless. Just donate your non-​TSA-​approved crap or toss it. The cream was $ 25…and $ 26.95 to not receive it from Airport FAILERS.
