Travel success has more to do with intangible factors than we often realize. And one of those intangible factors is packing. How easy \u2013 or difficult \u2013 it is to pack your luggage can make or break your trip, especially if your trip involves a lot of moving around. When your luggage is your makeshift house, you’d better ensure it’s well organized. Here are some pro packing hacks, featuring the best travel accessories and best travel products to help you save space, stay organized, and make the most of your trip.

What are the Best Travel Organizers and Luggage Accessories?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This post is going to outline a whole heap of luggage organizers, almost all of which I’ve used at one time or another. But it’s very important to note: using them all simultaneously will not make you a better traveler! In fact, too many luggage accessories will take up so much space that you won’t have any room for the things you actually need to bring<\/strong>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll also notice that some items are great for travel organization, and others are meant to save space. The best traveling accessories are those that save space and<\/em> organize your stuff, and when I find one of these gems, I take them on every trip (you’ll read about a few in this post). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But generally speaking, each trip is different, and you’ll need to employ different travel packing hacks and travel organizers to suit the mission at hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So have a gander at the various must have travel accessories that I’ve used over the years, and pick and choose best travel items that work for you.

SegSac Traveler (aka The Hoboroll) \u2013 Best Luggage Organizer for Carry on<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n

I reached out to these guys over 10 years ago when they launched The Hoboroll (before they renamed it SegSac Traveler), and we’ve been BFFs ever since. Not only did I adore their product, but with a name like \u201cThe Hoboroll\u201d, it was like a match made in heaven for \u201cThe Professional Hobo\u201d.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingenious names aside, this has ever since been my #1 all-time favourite travel accessory. So much so, that I use it even when I’m not traveling, because not only is it a fabulous space saver, but it’s a great organizational tool.<\/strong> I traveled full-time for two years with carry on luggage only, and it is in large part thanks to The Hoboroll. It’s that awesome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ultralight cylindrical compression stuff sack features segmented compartments inside (including a zippered pouch for valuables) and cinches shut on both ends. Then, the straps around the body of it compress the contents down to a fraction of the size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use the Hoboroll to organize and compress smaller items that would otherwise be lost in my luggage, like socks, underwear, workout clothes, scarves, hats, gloves, bathing suits<\/strong>….it’s a catch-all for smaller wardrobe bits. When I arrive at my destination, I simply open one side of the SecSac Traveler to gain access to the contents, and I leave it like that \u2013 no need to unpack! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

PROS:<\/strong> Awesome for organizing and compressing; ultralight material takes up no space or weight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

CONS:<\/strong> Honestly? None. Except perhaps that you’d be advised not <\/em>to order it off Amazon; they’re struggling with knock-off versions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
