Packaging Your Clothes for a Move

Most of us don’t have the room, or desire, to pack along an iron with us during our travels. Yet keeping clothes looking nice and not like a wrinkled mess is an art that many of us do not know how to achieve when packing.

By following these quick, simple steps your clothes will have less chance of wrinkling and more chance of coming of coming out the way we want.

Roll your clothes. Rolling your clothes keeps wrinkles from setting into your clothes, and keeps creases from strongly forming so all you have to do is give your clothes a little shake and you will be ready to go.

Another option is to fold two articles of clothing together. When you fold the garments together there is added cushion which makes it less likely to form strong creases or cause strong wrinkles in the clothing.

Another way of protecting your clothing from wrinkles is using tissue paper. For your delicate items place tissue paper on top of the item and fold it up with the tissue paper inside. It is a more gentle way of folding your clothes with something else by adding more cushion to that article of clothing.

Pack your jeans or other clothing you choose not to roll on the bottom of your suitcase. It is a good idea to place your heavier items on the bottom of the suitcase too because you do not want to place them on top to wrinkle or press down on your other clothing.

Rolled up clothing should go on the top layers of your suitcase. You need to place your most delicate clothing articles on the top.

If, once your done packing, you are lucky enough to have some room to spare in your suitcase fill it up with something lightweight. You don’t want things to be too loose and have your clothing unfold or unroll.
