Let’s Go…Packing Cubes

August 7, 2014 by robincharmagne 13 Comments

packing cubes

Hello there,
Well, 1 more day before vacay, the excitement is building! I enjoy reading other blogs and I noticed the travel bloggers were raving about packing cubes as an easy way to keep your clothes well organized in the suitcase and once you land. Let’s face it, packing can be a drag, so anything to help the process a long is fine by me. So, I decided to give packing cubes a whirl for this trip. Here’s how they work:

ebags, travel, travel cubes

Sort your clothes by category


Add the clothes, zip it up, toss in the suitcase

Add the clothes, zip it up, toss in the suitcase


packing cubes

Viola! Finished packing!

The packing cubes worked out really well with lots of room leftover for shoes and toiletries. These are from eBags and come in a variety of sizes and colors. A few nice features of these packing cubes include mesh fabric that keeps the air circulating, double zippers to keep clothes secure and a nice handle for easy transport. I wanted two specific colors so I purchased 6 bags(3 medium and 3 small) in my chosen colors for around $40, not too bad at all. And, you can get a nice discount if you sign-up for email.

    I haven’t tried the cubes, but I might give a go next time. This most recent trip I was doing carry on, so I used space bags. Worked great… on the way there. Lucky for me, I was at my sister’s house. But I can’t figure what people do if they are at a hotel and don’t have a vacuum handy!
    Have a great vacation Robin! Bon Voyage!!

    I had never heard of these before, but I wish I had some 🙂 We recently went on vacation and it would have been very useful with packing clothes for four people.

      Hi Sonya,
      They work pretty good so far. You could color code for each person in your family. Let me know if you get some and how they worked!

    I wish I read this three weeks ago, before traveling to Mexico city. What a great way to organize and don’t go crazy while packing. Thank you for the recommendation!

    I use a different a brand (Dot&Dot) of these as well as the packing folders I got from Amazon. It makes packing and organization so much easier. They also help keep my clothes wrinkle-free! 🙂
