For a Lighter Suitcase, Leave These 9 Unnecessary Items at Home!

Snacks

Now, we aren’t talking about those requisite emergency granola bars—always bring those guys! What we are focused on is something more elusive—the “banned snack”. If you’re flying, there are quite a few surprising foods you can’t bring through security.Learn more about which common snacks have been banned by the TSA here.

Big Winter Coat

While traveling to a chilly climate definitely calls for ultra-warm, durable clothing options, there’s no need to bring along your 10-pound winter jacket. These days, practically every major outdoor brand is making lightweight or light-down winter coats, some of which are rated for sub-zero conditions.These jackets are often completely waterproof and can be rolled up into a small ball for easy packing. It may be a bit of an investment, but we think the extra space will be well worth the extra cost!

Car Seat

You wouldn’t believe it, but there are quite a few airlines out there who provide complimentary baby cradles for passengers who have purchased an extra seat for their child. In addition, all major rental car companies have car seats available for daily or weekly rentals. It’s a great option, especially for families who have complex travel itineraries.Learn more about the special baby cradle airline program here.

Daily Outfits

Packing suitcaseAlexey StiopWith the exception of those who are visiting very hot or humid climates, there’s really no reason for travelers to bring along a new outfit for every day of the trip. For example, jeans, pants, and skirts can be worn at least twice, along with jackets, coats, and mixed-blend shirts. If you’re worried about your clothing not smelling fresh, pack along a homemade dryer bag!Learn how to make your very own dryer bag here.

Entire Makeup Bag

Instead, pack only the makeup you use for “everyday” purposes, with an extra color here or there for a night out on the town. You won’t believe how much lighter your purse will feel!

Now that you know which items are better left at home, we’d like to hear from you! Have you ever been guilty of packing any of the things on the list? Are there any items that we forgot? What are your “must-have” belongings?
