Additional Information

Hartmann offers a variety of luggage styles, shapes and sizes. Packing smart begins with selecting the luggage that meets your travel needs, including the length of your trip, the types of personal items you'll be taking, and whether you prefer to check your bag or carry it on. For wrinkle-proof traveling, choose a bag that can be firmly packed but not overpacked.

Packing smart starts with good planning and preparation. Here are some easy, but worthwhile tips:

• Button, zip and fasten all garments
• When packing, distribute the weight evenly to prevent shifting of the contents and make your bag easier to carry.
• Use plastic dry cleaner bags to slip over clothing before folding to reduce wrinkles. Re-use the plastic bags to keep wet or soiled items separate during travel.
• Roll socks, undergarments, and belts and place inside shoes. Use shoe bags whenever possible, placing shoes in a heel-to-toe position.
• For toiletries, carry small amounts and use plastic bottles. Make sure tops are on securely.
• Pack tightly, using soft clothing you can roll up to fill in gaps and corners.
