16 travel packing hacks.

This article will give you some travel hacks that will be useful for any kind of travel.

First pack roll your clothes instead of folding them, it actually saves you space when you roll your clothes all together instead of folding them and putting them on top of each other. 

Mark your suitcase as fragile even if it is not, because the people who are handling your suitcase won’t know that it’s not fragile, but they’ll see the sticker that says it is and hopefully be more careful. 

Putting jewelry in pill containers is awesome, it keeps them organized and it keeps you from losing jewelry. 

Sunglass cases aren’t just great for sunglasses, they are awesome for headphones and cables you’re worried about. 

Fold your soap in a washcloth, it is less gucky than keeping it in one of those plastic containers or a Ziploc bag. 

Hair conditioner can be used for other things than your hair, it can be used as shoe polish, you can use it as makeup remover too. 

When you’re packing your suitcase, put all the heavy items near the wheels of the suitcase so that when you zip it up and put it upright the heavy items aren’t gonna fall and crush other things, they’re already going to be on the lower end of your suitcase. 

Anything that you have that is breakable or is going to explode like hairspray or shampoo bottles, put them in socks that way if they do explode they’ve exploded in your socks. 

It is always a good idea to bring a pillowcase with you, it will be useful at the airport or airplane. 

Make sure that you bring your toiletries, any breakables, anything that’s valuable and a change of clothes in a carry-on bag that you’re gonna bring with you on the plane, that way if your luggage does go missing you still have your valuables with you and a change of clothes which is always nice. 

Bring versatile clothing, use clothing that is reversible, use clothing that can be made into a few different outfits. There’s a company called Encircled, they make clothing specifically for travelers. 

See how many of your electronics actually take the same cable, you might be surprised. 

You probably just clump all your necklaces together and then you spend hours trying to untangle them. If you take your necklaces and string them through a straw it keeps them nice and untangled. 

Keep your clothing and anything else in your suitcase from getting dirty, put the soles of your shoes in a shower cap. 

Another way to prevent your liquids and gels from spilling all over your bag, unscrew the cap and put some plastic wrap over the bottle and then screw the lid back on, if it spills it ain’t going nowhere. 

If you’re going international and you have a lot of electronics with you, bring an adapter of course but also bring a power bar, that way you can plug several different items into your power bar and only have to bring 1 international adapter. 

We hope these travel hacks make your packing experience way easier, way more efficient and less stressful for your next trip.
