How to Pack for Your Summer Vacation

Getting ready to leave for your family vacation? Not before you ready these packing tips!

While folding may not sound ideal, take the time to do it properly. You’ll save space by packing your outfits neatly together and you won’t have to waste time by ironing out those wrinkles once you’ve arrived.

Use your shoes! They have their own built in packing space and can be used to store socks, underwear, chargers, and other small items that would otherwise float around.

On the bottom of your suitcase you should place your heavier items such as jeans and shoes. Try to make each level as flat as possible. Then arrange smaller items like electronics, jewelry, toiletries, etc. Finally, any items that you may need to reach easily, place near the surface.

For other miscellaneous items, you can decide to leave the sunscreen and shampoo at home, and pick them up once you arrive to your destination. This is especially helpful if you’re flying and you’re taking a carry-on.
