The Ultimate Guide To Pack Your Suitcase

Having trouble packing a suitcase every time you travel?

Worry no more, Cube Self Storage is here to give you the best tips to pack a suitcase efficiently and effectively, giving you as much room as possible so that you can bring all your essentials. 

• Think twice about everything you want to put in your bag
  Pick your outfits beforehand instead of randomly putting whatever you see or like in your suitcase. This will ensure that your tops, bottoms and accessories go well together, and save space for other items.2-3 days before the trip, make a list of everything that you intend to bring. This will give you time to think and consider if the item is necessary and should have a place in the suitcase or not.
• Rolling instead of folding
  Rolling clothes squeezes air from between folds, thus saving up more space compared to folding. Furthermore, this technique also decreases the formation of wrinkles or creases.
  If perfume bottles or fragile items are on your list, then rolling them up between your clothes will prevent them from being broken or damaged during the trip.
• Air-tight bags
  This is a smart option to pack puffy items such as coats, feather jackets, towels, stuffed animals or plush toys and kids clothes.
• Opt for sample instead of full size
  Instead of bringing your essentials and skincare in their original bottles, extract them to travel size or mini kits. This ensures a spacious suitcase and light-weight luggage.
  
• Layer your suitcase correctly
  Put heavy or bulky items such as jeans, towels, or a hair dryer at the bottom of the luggage, then lighter and more wrinkle-prone clothes. 
• Put your underwear together
  Stacking your bras on top of each other will ensure that they can remain their shapes and forms. Rolling your panties and placing them between bras would be a good way to keep your bras from being pressed down by other items. 
  
• Leave no empty space in the suitcase
  To prevent the inside of your suitcase from becoming a mess during transition due to empty spaces, fill it up with paper, towel or bring a personal raincoat to minimise gaps between items. 

A trip typically ends with souvenirs and gifts and luggage or winter clothing that you don’t normally use. What happens if you don’t have the space to store them?
