Strategies for Organizing a Messy Suitcase

After learning about ideal tourist destinations for your 20-inch suitcase, it's time to pack! But first, let's make sure your suitcase contents are neatly arranged. Check out the full guide below!

1. Use Suitcase Organizers or Storage Bags

Using suitcase organizers or storage bags can help you arrange your belongings more efficiently. You can store clothes, shoes, or other accessories in separate organizers or bags, making them easy to find when needed.

For example, for makeup, skincare, and toiletries, store them in small waterproof bags to prevent spills. You can place them on top of your clothes pile or in an easily accessible spot. This way, you won't have to unpack your entire suitcase just to find your toiletries.

2. Group Items by Priority

One effective strategy is to group your items by priority. Separate or place frequently used and important items on top for easier access than those rarely used.

Grouping items by priority not only makes your luggage more organized but also facilitates access during travel. This is very useful, especially for women who often carry a lot of belongings.

3. Clothes Rolling Method

Rolling clothes instead of folding them can help you save space in your suitcase and prevent clothes from getting wrinkled. This method also makes it easier for you to quickly see the available clothing options. You won't need to take out all the contents of your suitcase.

4. Bring a Vacuum Bag

Bringing a vacuum bag can be a great and practical option to compress clothes and other items by removing excess air, giving you more space for other items in your suitcase. You can suck the air out of the vacuum bag to make items slimmer and more compact. You can also store dirty clothes when traveling in a vacuum bag.

5. Using the Pyramid Technique

The pyramid technique involves stacking your items in a pyramid shape inside your suitcase. Place the heaviest or largest items at the bottom, and place smaller items on top. This helps distribute weight evenly and utilizes suitcase space efficiently.

6. Bring a Shopping Bag

Bringing an extra shopping bag can be useful for storing dirty clothes or additional items acquired during your trip. This way, you can keep your suitcase neat and organized even when you're on the go.

For those who love to shop or bring souvenirs when traveling but often forget to bring extra bags, suitcases with an expandable feature can be a solution. This feature allows the storage space in the suitcase to increase, so additional items can still fit in one suitcase, neatly organized, and not scattered. This way, you can pack more efficiently without needing to add extra bags, while also minimizing the risk of leaving items behind.

Clean and Store Your Suitcase Properly

To pack all your belongings, the next step is to prepare the suitcase you'll be bringing! Make sure the suitcase is cleaned first, avoiding dust that can enter the suitcase. Here's how to clean two types of 20-inch suitcases, see more below:

1. Aluminum Suitcase

2. Polycarbonate Suitcase

The 20-inch Baller polycarbonate suitcase comes with a sponge for cleaning the suitcase surface. Use the sponge with water, then wipe repeatedly on the stained areas until clean. After cleaning, store the polycarbonate suitcase in a dry and non-humid place.

Cleaning your suitcase isn't just for when you're traveling, Ballers. Make sure you also clean and store your suitcase properly after returning from your trip. This is done to maintain the quality and appearance of the suitcase so it lasts longer. This applies not only to 20-inch suitcases but also to other suitcase sizes you own!
