By the time the holiday break
rolls around, you will have already been living in your dorm room as if it were your new home. Your
clothes will have found their perfect place and you can barely begin to imagine packing,
unpacking, and repacking all of your things for the holiday pilgrimage back to mom and dad’s. If the
thought of this makes you cringe and all you can think about are overflowing duffel bags with none
of the right things (as you will soon find out), we suggest you start thinking about your packing
strategy differently than before. Modernize is here to show you how packing can be done
efficiently and sometimes even feel easy if you know all the best hacks. It just takes a little bit
of effort to get it all right and you’ll be a practiced and savvy packer for life.
Every expert packer’s dream is to
be so swift that their clothes never even need to leave the hangers when they travel. Sure,
you can try to squish a bunch of clothing into your suitcase in this way, but chances are things
will get wrinkled and become too bulky to fit. Even transporting hangers separately becomes
problematic. The awkward shape and stiffness prevents them from fitting nicely into any
corner of your bag—not to mention they could catch and tear a hole in that ugly Christmas sweater you
bought for the ugly Christmas sweater party. Such a shame. DormCo wants to protect your ugly
Christmas sweaters...and all the rest of your clothes with a fold-up bag that lets you layer
pre-hung clothing in a pile with a tie to secure your hangers don’t slip out. It is the easiest and
most ingenious way to eliminate the hassle of packing and unpacking clothes no matter how
long you stay.
Sure, there’s plenty of
opportunities to do laundry when you are away at school, but there’s just something about the way that Mom
does it that just makes your clothes the softest and the best smelling they’ve ever been—or
this is what you’ll tell her when you walk in the door with twenty pounds of dirty laundry. Or you
can admit that you’ve shrunken one too many T-shirts and turned all your socks pink but
it’s okay, you were able to fit everything in a sturdy canvas tote with a drawstring that survived
two bus rides and a quick drive home, so isn’t she glad that worked so well? Whatever the
situation, you’ll appreciate the Oxford Laundry Duffel Bag’s chic look and helpful shoulder strap
that makes bringing laundry home so easy you just might want to do it more often…
For everything else that you need
to carry, DormCo.com’s FL-J Suitcase Trunk is spacious enough to hold any school books
(just so you can stay sharp over the holidays, right?), laptops, or other valuable items that you
don’t feel comfortable carrying in a backpack or purse. It’s important to remember that you
should always find secure and safe ways to stash your belongings, especially if you are
traveling alone. The FL-J Suitcase has locks on the outside and straps on the inside to keep
your stuff from shifting around while you’re moving about. It’s also small and lightweight with 4
base wheels for easy transportation and is regulation carry-on size for planes.
