Article: Packing cubes come in full, half, and quarter sizes that each work best with a certain type of clothing. Generally, you should bring a couple smaller quarter-sized cubes for shorter trips, and a variety of the 3 sizes for longer trips. Lay out any clothes made of softer material, such as underwear, T-shirts, jeans, cotton pants, and knitwear. Fold them lengthwise, then roll up each folded piece into a bundle before placing them into the packing cubes. Rolling will keep your clothes compressed, letting you make the most of the space in your suitcase. This is especially helpful for extended trips that require more clothing options. Rolling can damage clothing made of stiff or delicate, expensive fabrics. Fold these normally and stack them in the packing cube. To avoid wrinkles, you can also pack them in a garment bag. This technique works best on items like blazers, dressy pants, dressy skirts, and starched shirts. Make sure that you can easily zip up the packing cubes once you’ve filled them. If they’re straining or overflowing, pull out a few items. There shouldn’t be any wasted space, but everything should still fit comfortably. Start by stacking any folded items in the bottom, then add rolled clothes on top. This will help protect the clothes from moving around too much and getting wrinkled or crumpled. Stacking will also help you get the best use of space out of the packing cubes. Place this cube at the top of your bag to keep the electronics from being crushed. The packing cube will help you find your electronics more easily when you need them, as well as keep all of your cords from getting tangled and mixed in with the rest of your things. If you use a packing cube as a designated laundry bag, make sure to bring some fresh dryer sheets as well. This will help control any odors and keep the cube smelling fresh.  Keeping your laundry in a packing cube will help keep dirty clothes out of the way, separate from the clean clothes, and compressed so they won’t take up too much space in your bags. A double-sided packing cube is perfect for storing laundry. Start with the widest packing cube and place it in the bottom of your bag or suitcase. Fit any smaller packing cubes around it and on top of it. This way, you’ll be able to see and access each cube more easily. If you have trouble fitting the packing cubes into your suitcase, go for flexible ones over structured ones. This will let you fit the cubes into the contours of the suitcase more easily.
