nwa.com or alaskaairlines.com both offer cargo service up here. Compare prices and time. USPS offers parcel post, but it's gone up a lot in price. www.usps.gov to check prices.
That's about it. Fedex and UPS ship here but only overnight and second day air and that is expensive.
Shipping luggage is a great idea so that you can travel light. I've done it and would do it more if shipping to and from AK was cheaper.
The airlines will allow two 50-pounds bags for free. An additional bag costs, but typically less than to ship. If you don't have enough luggage, they'll accept stuff in a cardboard box. You see a lot of that up here.
