Many think they need to be extremely careful and clever to pack their suitcase neatly for travel, but that's not the case. By following these simple tips, you can ensure that your luggage for the upcoming trip is just as compact and lightweight as anyone else's…
Packing Tip 1: Organizing Clothes
– Place heavy clothing items at the bottom of your suitcase
Have you ever thought that placing heavy items on top would save suitcase space? That's a misconception! You can only save space by packing heavy items like jeans and jackets at the bottom of your suitcase, where the wheels are.
Rolling Technique for Clothes
Instead of folding clothes flat and square like usual, try learning how to roll them instead. Rolling clothes will save you a lot of space in your suitcase. Items like shorts, T-shirts, and socks are easy to roll.
Here's a tutorial video on how to roll clothes that you can refer to. It's very easy and just takes a few tries to become a “pro”!
Using Shoes as Storage
If your adventure or trip requires more than one pair of shoes, don't let them take up valuable space in your suitcase. You can actually use your shoes to store items, very neatly and safely. You can roll up socks and put them in your shoes, and you can even fit jewelry, belts, sunscreen, or small cosmetics in them.
Packing Tip 2: Transfer Toiletries into Small Containers
For your trip, whether long or short, when carrying cosmetics, it's essential to transfer them into smaller bottles to save luggage space. You can get cosmetic bottles for transferring at cosmetic stores or travel shops. Transferring cosmetics into smaller containers not only makes your suitcase more compact and lighter, but also if you happen to forget anything, you won't regret it much because you'll only lose a little.
Packing Tip 3: Packing Fragile Items Between Layers of Clothes
This may be a basic tip for moms, but young people sometimes forget. Fragile items like jewelry, gifts, etc., should be placed between layers of clothes to save suitcase space and ensure the safety of these items.
Packing Tip 4: Avoid Packing Oversized or Unnecessary Items
Of course, you might really need a hairdryer for getting ready to go out, to take a quick shower and head straight to bed, or to keep your hair neat. However, if there's no space left for it, you don't really need to bring it. Packing oversized or unnecessary items will only make your space more cramped, not to mention if you're flying, it could lead to excess weight and additional fees.
In addition to using small cosmetic containers as mentioned above, for other items like towels, face towels, flashlights, etc., you should also use small ones that are just enough.
Packing Tip 5: Minimize Tech Gadgets
Many still tend to overpack with tech gadgets like laptops, tablets… while these can easily be replaced by a compact and convenient camera and smartphone.
You don't need to bring all your tech gadgets along
Bringing tech gadgets not only adds weight to your luggage, but you might also not even have time to use them. Moreover, the risk of theft or damage can disrupt your trip.
