How to Pack a Bag or Suitcase Efficiently (backpack-bags)
Packing for a trip is easy when you plan ahead by following the tips given below. Remember to pack according to the weather, location and activities planned. Be sure to include toiletries, medications and valuables such as jewelery in a separate traveling case which you can stow away in an overhead cabin.
(Tips for backpack-bags)
1. Check out the weather at your destination(s) before you go. Is it going to rain? Pack a rain suit or something that can get wet and dry quickly. If it is going to be hot, pack shorts. Don't forget: Do you need a bathing suit or swim clothes?
2. Plan each day in advance. This will help you decide how many pieces of clothing to take. Too much and you will regret carrying everything. Too little and you will have to spend extra money. Remember that you may have to change your clothes during the day for some reason, so bring some extra.
3. If you have limited space, do not roll your shirts, pants, etc. Instead, fold your shirts into squares. Better yet, stack them. In the space you could fit about 3-4 rolled t-shirts, you could fit 5-6 stacked shirts (depending on your suitcase size).
4. Stuff your socks inside your shoes if there is no other room for them.
5. Line the inside of the bag with your rolled t-shirts. This will help distribute the contents.
6. Pack fragile items in the center of your case. This way, they are less likely to be broken.
7. Put dress shirts on top so that you can remove them easily for hanging and ironing.
8. Put shoes in a plastic grocery bag so your toiletries don't get dirty. (Just to be on the safe side, even if your toiletries are in a separate bag.)
