Tips for carrying more in your suitcase

Packing can be complex, especially when you want to travel light while maximizing carrying capacity. Whether you’re going on a short break or a long adventure, efficient organization of your belongings will not only enable you to travel more comfortably, but also make intelligent use of the space available to transport parcels thanks to a collaborative delivery service between private individuals.

Here are some practical tips for optimizing your suitcase space and making the most of your travels.

1. Choose a suitcase suited to the length of your stay

Your choice of luggage is crucial. Choose a suitcase adapted to the length and type of your trip:

  • cabin suitcase (40 to 50 liters): ideal for stays of 2 to 4 days
  • M-size suitcase (60 to 75 liters): perfect for trips of 5 to 10 days
  • XL size suitcase (over 100 liters): recommended for stays of over 10 days

Choose rigid models with several internal compartments or pockets for better organization and optimized storage.

2. Roll up your clothes to save space

The rolling method maximizes space and reduces wrinkles. Roll your T-shirts, pants, sweaters and even underwear for easier packing.
This technique minimizes clutter and prevents creases.

3. Use compression or vacuum bags

Compression bags are an essential ally for compact travel. They reduce the volume of your bulkiest clothes (sweaters, jackets, down jackets), while keeping them neat and tidy.
An ideal solution for freeing up space for other items or parcels to be delivered.

4. Make the most of the empty space in your suitcase

Don’t leave any space unused! Slip socks or cables into your shoes, insert accessories into the corners or pockets of your clothes.
For fragile objects, use clothing as natural protection.
This technique also prevents objects from shifting during transport.

5. Organize your clothes by theme or outfit

Prepare your luggage by complete outfit or by category (day, sport, evening, etc.).
This thematic organization helps you save time, avoid packing unnecessary clothes and better plan the space occupied in your suitcase.
Luggage organizers can also help you compartmentalize efficiently.

6. Choose miniature travel products

For toiletries, choose solid formats (shampoo, soap, toothpaste) or samples.
Not only are they compact, they also prevent leaks in the suitcase.
Keep the liquids you need in a transparent kit that complies with airport standards, for smoother passage through checkpoints.

7. Store your accessories in dedicated pockets

Cables, jewelry, chargers and electronic accessories should be grouped together in specific pockets.
This prevents knots and loss, and facilitates security.
Good organization means you don’t have to waste time rummaging around, and it protects your equipment.

9. Keep essentials close at hand

Put essentials (toothbrush, charger, medication, pyjamas) at the top of your suitcase or in an easily accessible pocket.
This will save you from having to unpack everything as soon as you arrive, especially after a long journey.

10. Wear the bulkiest clothes

To save even more space, wear the heaviest or bulkiest clothes during your trip: coats, sneakers, hoodies.
This will free up space in your suitcase without depriving you of an essential item.

Bonus tip: take along a foldable tote bag or shopping bag for your purchases or souvenirs on your return.

11. Prepare a packing list to organize your belongings in advance

Anticipation saves space.
Before you pack your suitcase, make a list of essentials based on the weather, duration and activities planned.
This will avoid duplication and help you pack only what you need, while allowing space for any packages you may be carrying.
