Moving to the Costa del Sol? Send Your Belongings Ahead.
We receive them. We store them. We deliver them when you’re ready.
Moving from the UK, USA or elsewhere overseas?
Delivery Owls helps you get ahead of your move by receiving furniture, boxes, personal belongings and approved online shopping orders before you arrive in Spain, with our send ahead service.
You can even start shopping for your new home before you travel.
Arrange deliveries from retailers such as Amazon and other online stores, send selected belongings ahead from home, or have furniture delivered while you’re still abroad.
We’ll receive everything as agreed, store it locally, keep you updated as items arrive, and when you have the keys to your new home, arrange delivery to your door.
Shop ahead. Send ahead. Arrive with your new home already taking shape.

How Send Ahead Works
1. Tell Us About Your Move
Let us know where you’re moving to on the Costa del Sol, approximately when you expect to arrive, and what you’d like us to receive.
This could be anything from a few boxes and online orders to furniture and multiple deliveries arriving over several weeks.
2. We Confirm What We Can Receive
We’ll check the size, quantity, expected delivery dates and temporary storage required, then confirm availability and provide your quotation.
3. We Give You Your Receiving Details
Once your Send Ahead booking is confirmed, we’ll provide the authorised delivery details and your unique Delivery Owls reference.
Please don’t send anything until your booking has been confirmed.
4. Start Sending & Shopping
Now you can start getting organised before you arrive.
Send approved belongings from home, arrange furniture deliveries or start shopping online for the things you’ll need in Spain.
5. We Receive, Record & Store Everything
As your approved items arrive, we receive them on your behalf, keep track of what has arrived and temporarily store them until you’re ready.
6. You Arrive — We Deliver
Once you have the keys and are ready to receive your belongings, simply contact us and we’ll arrange delivery to your new home.
One Less Thing to Worry About Before You Move.
While you focus on the move, we’ll take care of receiving, storing and delivering your belongings — so when you arrive, they’re already here waiting for you.
Shop for Your New Home
Before You Even Arrive
Moving into a new home on the Costa del Sol doesn’t mean you have to wait until move-in day to start getting organised.
Once your Send Ahead booking is confirmed, you can arrange approved online shopping and retailer deliveries while you’re still abroad.
Order the things you know you’ll need — from furniture and bedding to children’s essentials, homeware, kitchen items and everyday necessities — and have them delivered to us.
We’ll receive them, keep you updated and temporarily store them until you’re ready.
Your new home can start coming together before you even
board the plane.
Moving From the UK
to the Costa del Sol?
Relocating from the UK to Spain can leave you in an awkward in-between period.
You’ve started packing up one home — but you can’t quite start receiving things at the next.
We understand that first-hand.
In 2025, our own family made the move from Devon in the UK to southern Spain, so we know what it feels like to organise a new life from another country — the boxes, the deliveries, the stress, the things you need before you have somewhere ready to receive them, and the seemingly endless list of jobs that comes with relocating.
That experience is part of why Send Ahead by Delivery Owls exists.
Arrange the service while you’re still in Britain and have approved boxes, personal belongings, furniture and online purchases delivered
ahead of your arrival.
We’ll receive them locally, store them, keep you updated and arrange delivery when your new home is ready.
We’ve made the move ourselves. Now we’re here to make one part of yours much easier.
Moving From the USA to
the Costa del Sol?
Moving from the USA to Spain is a major international relocation — and trying to organise belongings, furniture and deliveries from thousands of miles away can quickly become one more headache you don’t need.
If you’re relocating from the USA to Marbella, Málaga or the Costa del Sol, Send Ahead by Delivery Owls gives you a trusted local team at your destination before you even arrive in Spain.
Arrange for approved boxes of personal belongings, furniture, household essentials and online shopping orders to reach us ahead of your move.
We can receive them locally, keep you updated as they arrive and provide temporary storage until your new Spanish home is ready.
You can even shop for your new home in Spain while you’re still in America — ordering bedding, homeware, children’s essentials, furniture and other approved items for delivery before your flight.
Whether you’re moving from Florida, New York, California, Texas or elsewhere in the United States, you don’t have to wait until you land in Spain to start getting your new home organised.
Once you arrive in the Costa del Sol, have it all waiting for you
Tell us where you need everything — and we’ll arrange delivery to your new home & life in the sunshine.
Less to ship with you. Fewer deliveries to coordinate from America. One less part of your move to Spain to worry about.
Relocation receiving, temporary storage and local delivery for Americans moving to Marbella, Málaga and the Costa del Sol, Spain.
Moving to Spain With Children?
Moving abroad as a family means there is already plenty to think about — flights, suitcases, schools, paperwork, accommodation and helping everyone settle into a completely new environment.
The last thing you need when you arrive is to spend your first few days chasing deliveries and shopping for all the things your children need.
With Send Ahead by Delivery Owls, you can arrange for approved family belongings and purchases to arrive on the Costa del Sol before you do.
Send ahead things such as:
Children’s clothing • Bedding • Favourite books & toys • School supplies • Nursery essentials • Baby equipment • Everyday family items • Online shopping orders
We’ll receive them, temporarily store them and keep you updated while you concentrate on getting your family to Spain.
And once you have the keys?
We can arrange delivery to your new home — with some of the familiar things your family needs already waiting for you.
Fewer bags through the airport. Fewer jobs when you land. A softer start to your new life in Spain.
Simple Pricing.
One Less Thing to Organise.
Every move is different. Some customers need us to receive a handful of boxes.
Others may have furniture, online shopping and multiple deliveries arriving over several weeks.
That’s why Send Ahead is priced around what you actually need, rather than forcing your move into a one-size-fits-all package.
Your quotation will take into account the number and size of your belongings, how long you need us to hold them, any larger furniture deliveries and where everything needs to be delivered once you’re ready.
You’ll know the cost before you start sending anything.
