I've got it down to a science so I can procrastinate until the night before:

  • How many days? That many pairs of socks, underwear, and shirts, half that many pairs of pants. 2 additional pairs of socks and an extra shirt
  • Deodorant
  • Check to make sure the dedicated travel phone charger is still packed
  • Notebook
  • Laptop and charger dedicated to travel
  • A book that's easy to pickup and set down
  • Corded headphones
  • Dedicated laundry bag for trips longer than 10 days
  • Bring a toothbrush for trips longer than 3 days
  • Bedding, soap, and shampoo only when traveling to the wilderness

I like to travel as light as I can and most of my trips are for a week or less, so oftentimes the only thing I need for luggage is a single carryon bag

Tf you only brush your teeth every 3 days??

[-] Anne@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

... If it's three days or less, do you just not brush your teeth?

[-] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

I carry some disposable pre-pasted brushes instead

I just have a toiletry bag with a collapsible toothbrush and toothpaste tablets. I pretty much always bring the same toiletries on any trip to keep it easy.

this was a helpful starter list thank you lmao! I'm usually a single-carryon dude myself, but this time I'm going camping so I have to bring a checked bag with stuff I never usually think about like a sleeping bag, sleeping pad, tent (which I put up last weekend to make sure I have all the parts & I'm not freaking out in the rain), eclipse glasses, etc

Yep! If you know you'll have a bare bed, the sleeping bag can be used as bedding so you can save packing a blanket. If you know you'll be in decent motels or better, you can save on packing the bedding if it's not specialized. The only specialized thing I need for road trips are road atlases. Make sure you know how to read a map before you need it though. I assume this is for the eclipse, so make sure to pack bug spray and a thick sweatshirt if you're coming to the Midwest

so for a 14 day trip you're taking 7 pairs of pants? that seems like a bit much
