We do that with equipment that is needed at the site............
I used to attend many computer related conferences many years ago and I grew to hate lugging the luggage and getting the luggage at the baggage claim and lugging the luggage to the hotel, and lugging the luggage from the hotel, and at the end waiting for the luggage at the airport when i got home. I began to use UPS instead, and not even with a suitcase, just a box.
I realized why not?, when most every computer conference had a set up for sending back to the office all the material collected at the conference in a box with a Fedex label. I thought, why not do the same with the bulk of my clothing. Even if I needed one suit on the trip, that with a good dress shirt, tie, good belt and dress shoes I could carry on in a suit bag, and have a knapsack for a few clothing items and toiletries. The rest - in the box.
