The Only Packing Checklist You Will Ever Need
Headed for a vacation and do not know what to pack? Do not worry Hansen Motel has got you covered. Planning a vacation is a stressful task in itself, what adds on to this pressure is packing everything securely and not forgetting about anything. We understand this problem and have curated the ultimate checklist that will make packing much easier. While a lot of the items will be available at the front desk or in your room, it is still essential to pack a few items along. Packing usually depends on the purpose of the trip and the duration but the basics for every trip remain the same. Whether you are a solo traveler or traveling with family, you should be aware of what to pack and what not to.
Essentials
These are the items that you cannot do without on any vacation. Start by packing these so that half of the work is done.
Create a separate file for all your documents. If traveling with family, keep them all together to make check-in or travel easy. Keep them wherever they are easily accessible. After you are done with the documents, pack all the important medications. If you or anyone in your family is allergic to something or is on daily medication, carry it along with you. Make sure to always carry extra medicines as they might not be available wherever you are traveling. Thirdly, a first aid kit is a must. Never leave your house for a vacation without a first aid kid. You never know where you might need one. Do not be dependent on the motel to provide you with one, since many might not have it.
Clothes
The most important thing of any vacation. We always advise travelers to pack light. It reduces the hassle of carrying a number of bags. Instead, while packing create outfits for each day. When you do this, it is possible to repeat the clothes. However, this depends on where you are traveling to and what the weather will be there. If traveling during the summer it is possible to pack plenty of clothing items. But this is not the same for winters. We advise you to carry one big jacket that can be worn as an overcoat to keep you protected from the cold. When the clothes are packed start with the undergarments. This is the most common thing that people forget on vacations. Calculate the number of days and carry at least 3 more pairs than that. For shoes carry only two pairs. One for your daily wear and one to wear to dinners or outings.
Miscellaneous
When going for a vacation there are a few items that do not fall into any category but are equally important. These include:
- ● Phone chargers
- ● Power banks
- ● Earplugs
- ● Earphones
- ● Camera
- ● Water bottle
- ● Itinerary
- ● Laptop
- ● Laptop chargers
- ● Laptop chargers
- ● Sunglasses
Start packing a few days before your vacation to avoid any mess up by last-minute packings. Whenever you leave the packing to a day before the vacation you are bound to forget something. Be the smart one and pack earlier
