Suitcase packing hack will help you fit ‘4 weeks worth of clothes’ into small suitcase | Travel News | Travel
Kelsey captioned the video: “How to pack one month’s worth of clothes in only a carry-on suitcase.”
In this packing tip, called the “brick method”, fold the trousers to a uniform size, then roll them up until they resemble a brick, hence the name.
When it comes to bottoms with tie strings, fold them in half to hide the ties first before rolling them up. Then, align the bottoms in a packing cube so the straps will compress the clothes.
Kelsey recommends wearing your heaviest layers, like denim, on travel days to conserve space. Alternatively, lay them flat over the top before zipping your packing cube shut.
For tops and shirts, follow the same method as trousers – fold everything into a uniform size. Fold button-down shirts with buttons facing you to reduce bulk.
Fold any hoods and tank top straps inwards for less bulk. Kelsey pointed out: “Your items should become similarly sized ‘bricks’, so they’ll fit uniformly in the cubes.”
If you’re after more packing tips to experiment with this summer and prefer not to use packing cubes, influencer Chantel Mila has a great suggestion.
She advises positioning your suitcase upright rather than lying it flat on the ground, and organising your items vertically in columns.
This method not only optimises space but also allows you to view all your belongings more clearly, making unpacking a breeze when you arrive at your destination.
