Luggage Policies
We allow each camper to bring one trunk and one duffle bag (or two duffle bags) to camp. We do not have room to store more than that! We also have campers bring normal suitcases as well.
Please log in and complete the online travel form located on your camper’s forms dashboard to inform camp about how your camper’s luggage will be getting to AND from camp.
ALL CAMPERS MUST COMPLETE THIS FORM (INCLUDING CAR RIDERS).
Tag All Luggage
ALL BAGS belonging to your camper must be labeled with their FIRST and LAST name. If the bags are not labeled, bags get misplaced and delivering the luggage to the appropriate cabin is delayed . PLEASE DO NOT PUT PARENTS NAMES ON THE BAGS.
Car Luggage
Please pre-label all bags/items prior to arrival to camp with your campers First AND Last name.
Shipping Luggage to Camp - ShipCamps
We are proud to parter with ShipCamps again in 2025 for shipping luggage to and from Camp Highlander!
For the 2025 season, ShipCamps is offering a 10% discount on orders for Camp Highlander campers. To receive the discount, enter promo code Highlander25 in the promo box when booking online, or mention the code if booking by phone. All ShipCamps orders can be booked here beginning February 3rd.
Important: The promo code Highlander25 must be provided at the time of booking—whether online or by phone—to apply the discount.
This exclusive offer is valid only for shipments to or from Camp Highlander during the 2025 season.
All luggage shipped to camp is delivered to your child’s cabin on opening day. Please make certain your child knows their lock combination or has the key to the lock on their luggage. If you are concerned your child may forget the combination, please let know the combination and he will assist your camper. We will still keep boxes luggage is shipped in and keep them for the return shipment home, as long as they are form fitting to the luggage.
Trunk Boxes
We suggest all luggage be boxed (including duffel bags) for shipment with ShipCamps. This protects the luggage and possibly prevents you from incurring additional handling fees if the boxes are form fitting. We will do our best to store and re-use your shipping boxes for returning your camper’s luggage back home, but we cannot guarantee the boxes will remain usable due to moisture levels on camp. If an issue arises, we will contact you on how to proceed. Please contact for more information.
We begin accepting luggage for each session two weeks prior to the session start date. Please do not ship any luggage earlier than this and follow ShipCamps dates for shipping.
Our address is:
42 Dalton Road, Horse Shoe NC 28742.
Shipping Luggage Home
All shipping of luggage home will be through ShipCamps. Any Lost & Found items left behind will be shipped by UPS or USPS at the parents expense. ShipCamps is the preferred shipper for Camp Highlander.
Arrangements for shipping luggage home is made through the ShipCamps landing page and communicated through the Travel Form in CampMinder NO LATER than one week prior to the end of the session. Any alternate shipping address must be included on the Travel Form if needed.
