Whether you’re counting down the days to a well-earned break, preparing for that all-important business trip, or\u00a0just getting away from the hustle and bustle for the weekend, there’s one thing every travel scenario has in common: Packing.<\/p>\n

Despite all our\u00a0best intentions of “packing light” more often than not we find ourselves drowning in piles of mini-toiletries, accessories, books and those endless weather dependent clothing options that we simply cannot leave at home.<\/p>\n

Luckily for you, at Woods Travel<\/a> we’re all about the customer experience, which is why we’ve dedicated our time to find the best possible packing hacks, to help get your holiday off to the best possible start!<\/p>\n

\"Purchase<\/p>\n

1. Make sure muddy shoes from walking excursions don’t damage the rest of your suitcase items by wrapping them in shower caps – you can also stuff socks and other small products into your shoes to save space.<\/p>\n

2. Prevent any accidents with liquid products by unscrewing each product lid, cutting a small square of cling film to wrap on top, and screwing the lid back on – a genius way of saving your precious suitcase items from damage.<\/p>\n

\"Purchase<\/p>\n

3. Use pill cases for storage of smaller accessories such as rings, earrings and bracelets.<\/p>\n

4. Use empty chapstick or camera film cases to hide valuables or extra holiday cash.<\/p>\n

5. Folding your clothes may look neat and tidy, but can take up a lot of space in your case!\u00a0By rolling your clothes, you create a lot more storage room (which means more outfits!)<\/p>\n

6. If you’re travelling for business turn your blazers inside out and roll them to prevent creases<\/p>\n

7. If you’re using a rolling suitcase try to put all the heavier items at the bottom so that the weight\u00a0is distributed – this will make it much easier to roll.<\/p>\n

\"Purchase<\/p>\n

8. Store any chargers or cables inside a glasses case to stop them getting damaged, lost or tangled<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0Put a dryer sheet in your suitcase with your clothes to keep them smelling fresh!<\/p>\n

10. Gentleman travellers! Wrapping your belt inside the collar of your shirt will not only save space, but keep your collar stiff.<\/p>\n
