Use zipties to "lock" your zippers on the way up to camp. It prevents the zippers from opening or from having anyone open your trunks on the way to camp.

Save an old Medium Amazon box and use it to pack all of your toiletries in. Wrap each bottle (liquid) in Glad Press and Seal so it doesn't leak. Then you put all of your "wet" toiletries in the box and wrap the whole box in a garbage bag. You're toiletries will never leak in the trunks on the way up to camp!!

Always send more batteries than you think your camper needs. It’s no fun note being able to use your portable fan in the summer heat!

Use packing cubes in your trunk to help keep it organized and gain more space when space is at a premium!!

Take a watch to wear, especially overnight, so if you wake up early, you know what time it is.
