Open the suitcase a crack and just shove it all in

I saw a brilliant way to fold all your clothing together, on Youtube. At the end all the garments were in a tight bundle and fitted perfectly into the suitcase.

Where you off to?

"Back pack / hand luggage - roll it.

Bigger suitcase - flat pack."

Finally some common sense in this thread of rollers!

I saw this! It looks so good but still, I find rolling too much effort!

Depends what type of clothing it is.

Are you packing for a trip somewhere?

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I roll into corners and around the sides and flat/fold in the middle.

I hope this is a lovely trip somewhere to use up your oodles of annual leave.

Roll? ROLL?

I've never even heard of roll packing. I've obviously led a pretty sheltered life!

Rolling = no creases.

Plus you end up with more room to pack more things or are able to take a smaller bag

I'm packing and none of it is creasable so it's being thrown in randomly!

But I roll if I don't want it creasing. I don't iron!

I don't think I'd get mine to the right size for the bag.

Choose everything you are taking. Then half it. Then half it again. Roll it and fuck off.

Am I the only one thinking that you can fit more in if it's folded?...It's FLAT.

That's how I've always done it.

Why is everyone rolling it?...

I always roll...

I used to work in the travel industry and that was the preferred way of packing for all the trolley dollies and reps so I'm sticking with that, as its tried and tested

Interesting, but I couldn't be bothered to mess about unwrapping it to get to clothes I want.

No, but I might actually go this year! I've just been travelling back and forth for a few days at a time and have been experimenting.
