Hey there, Jennifer! Sending you magical planDisney greetings from sunny California! You asked a fantastic question! As a serious over-packer myself, I can completely relate to that moment when it feels like you need Mary Poppins' carpet bag to get all your treasures home. The good news is, you can check that worry at the gate!
You'll be delighted to know that you can absolutely ship your souvenirs home directly from the Disneyland Resort. It’s like having your very own pixie dust delivery service! Most of the Disney-owned shops, like the iconic
Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A., will be happy to help you send your fun new finds straight to your doorstep. To ensure everything is just perfect, I always recommend asking a Cast Member at checkout for the specific shipping details. This way, you'll have plenty of room for all those magical memories you'll be taking home.
Now, what if you find the perfect
Spirit Jersey that you want to wear for your castle photos right away? (This seems to happen to me all the time…). Don't you worry! Many stores offer a complimentary package check service. You can shop to your heart's content, and they will hold onto your purchases for you until you're ready to leave the park. You'll be given a small pickup slip for your items, so be sure to tuck it away somewhere safe, as that's your key to claiming your goodies later! Even more convenient, if you're a Guest staying at one of the
Disneyland Resort hotels, you can often have your packages delivered right to your hotel for next-day pickup. How’s that for a touch of magic?!
And here's one last pro tip for you, Jennifer: if you plan to load up on souvenirs, you may consider
renting a locker for the day. My favorite spot—especially when I’m park hopping—is the set of lockers in the Esplanade, right between the entrances to Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park. That way, no matter which park you end your day in, your belongings are waiting conveniently for you on your way out.
Now, I know the whole point is to make your luggage situation easier, so I hesitate to add another temptation... but I just have to mention the
incredible new merchandise for the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration. From the vibrant Celebration Collection with its colorful Spirit Jerseys and character art, to the stunning Castle Collection inspired by Sleeping Beauty Castle (so fun!), and even a Vault Collection with awesome retro-inspired designs, there is something truly special to commemorate this milestone. Just remember that handy shipping service when you find that must-have item!
There you have it! With so many convenient choices, you can focus on the fun of finding the perfect mementos. Have an absolutely amazing time making memories during your visit, Jennifer!
