1. It's helpful to lay everything out in an organized fashion - that way you can see everything clearly and it goes into your trunk perfectly folded and organized. Remember: you want to put things into your trunk that are heavy, bulky, and that you can live without for a few days.
2. I generally place bulky, solid things along the bottom of the trunk (shoes, hot rollers, beauty products, books, candles, etc) That way - when you have to sit on your trunk to close it (which I often have to do!) you aren't trying to squish things that don't want to be squished!
4. It's important to purchase a master lock that has a key - I keep a lot of valuables in my trunk and it's nice to know it's locked up safe and sound. TIP: when putting the lock on your trunk - place it upside down with the key-hole facing up. It's a lot easier to get to when you're ready to unlock it!
EXTRA TIPS:
~ I like to add a sweet smelling sachet to my trunk (winter clothes, boots and gym shoes can smell funky) dryer sheets also work well - lavender is my favorite!
~ You should keep a re-useable bag in your trunk for transporting items back and forth from your trunk at the theater to your hotel. My lovely friend Briana Carlson-Goodman gave me an amazing gift and I use it ALL the time. It's called a "Shop n Tote" and it is the best. This little bag folds out of itself, is sturdy, eco friendly, super chic, and holds a ton of items! Here is how it works:
Greatest thing EVER! Thanks Briana!
There you have it - packing your trunk like a travel ninja!
