These space saver vacuum bags compress soft clothing, bedding, towels and similar into a fraction of the space. Never had an issue with creasing clothing and on our current trip have been great for some bedding, towels and dog stuff we’ve brought along.

I bought from Argos over 10 years ago and they come with lifetime replacement guarantee. Quick check on Argos website shows that assorted sizes pack of 6 or 8 bags are available for £10 and £15 respectively.

What about packing for the return journey?
I’ve used them when we’ve rented a house or apartment.

Ironically, this was the first time I couldn’t get access to to a vacuum cleaner with a hose, but problem solved by a trip to the local car cleaning spot a few minutes from where we stayed.
