The Eagle Creek Pack-It system is all about keeping your suitcase organized with packing organizers so that you know exactly where everything is, and so your clothing can be arranged and compressed, easily allowing you to fit more in your bag. Why spend your time packing and unpacking when you can quickly unpack by sliding your organizers directly into hotel drawers, and pack up quickly, getting seamlessly from one place to the next without having to rearrange your entire bag every time?
Headphones/earbuds. These are a must for listening to music, tuning in to audio tours, or simply drowning out whiny kids on the plane. (I never travel without my noise-canceling Bose headphones.) Bring a Y-jack so you and a partner can plug in headphones at the same time.

When curating your packing list, you should keep in mind the length of your trip and decide on quantities from there. For a shorter trip (three to five days), you can probably manage with the following: one pair of underwear and socks per day, one pair of pajamas, one to two dressier outfits, one to two activewear or athleisure outfits, one to two casual outfits, and one to two pairs of shoes. For a longer trip (over a week), you can manage with one pair of underwear and socks per day, two pairs of pajamas, three dressier outfits, three to four casual outfits, two pairs of shoes, and two activewear or athleisure outfits.
For more active trips, make sure you have a sturdy pair of hiking boots, quick-drying clothing, a day pack, snacks, and any necessary equipment. Check out our specific packing lists for hiking trips and camping trips.
Another type of trip that you may need to pack slightly specific items for is a cruise. Make sure you pack non-standard items like seasickness remedies, formal wear, dress shoes, and your bathing suit. Beach vacations also require different items like water shoes, towels, sunscreen, and maybe even snorkel gear. Luckily for you, we also have a specific cruise packing list and a beach vacation packing list.
If you are traveling abroad, we have an entire checklist for you, but the most important thing to note here is your passport and visas. Make sure that your passport is up to date, has as least six months of validity, and has enough blank pages for any stamps. Another tip for international travel? Give yourself plenty of time to apply for any visas that you might need and to arrange for a visit to a travel clinic if any special medications or vaccines are needed. You should also familiarize yourself with any remaining COVID-19 travel restrictions at your destination.
Other items that you might want to have handy with you include entertainment for your flight, comfort-promoting items like a blanket or pillow, as well as an empty water bottle to fill up post-security (here is a list of our favorites), a change of clothes (just in case your luggage is lost or delayed), snacks, and gum.
Following is a list of suggested items to bring into the backcountry. Non-cotton (synthetic) base layer clothing is suggested as it dries more quickly than cotton materials. Layering clothes for warmth is important. Temperatures on the island are typically cooler than on than on the mainland; be sure to pack plenty of layers. Bring two extra days' worth of food, in case the ferry doesn't run due to weather. It is recommended to have two water purification methods in the backcountry.
Also included below under the heading Leave at Home is a checklist of items that are prohibited on campus. Make sure you look at this list before purchasing something you will be required to remove.
For a complete list of prohibited items, go to MyCampus and click on the link to the Guide to Campus Housing. If a prohibited item is found in a room, the staff will confiscate the item, notify the student, and store the item until it can be taken home. This pertains to all items with the exception of alcohol, drugs, and alcohol and drug paraphernalia. Possession of these items will result in disciplinary action, will be confiscated, and will not be returned to the student.
Southeast Alaska's weather will be a big influence on your packing plan. Summers are mild. Long days extend to 15-18 hours of daylight. Here in the heart of Earth's biggest temperate rainforest, precipitation is common. May-September, temps range from 55-65F (12-18C), but can soar to 80F (27C). Evenings dip to 40-50F (4-10C). If you're tempted to take the "polar plunge", the water will be mid-40s to low-50sF (7-10C).
In Southeast and Southcentral, conditions change week-to-week and historic averages are changing. Check the weather forecast via your preferred weather source (such as NOAA's National Weather Service) for your cruise dates before packing.
Paste an inventory list of clothing and equipment inside a footlocker or suitcase to facilitate packing at the close of the Camp session. Pack in duffel bags, suitcases or footlockers, as storage space is limited. All bags will be stored in the cabin rafters, and are not used during your time at Interlochen.
As you prepare to pack for the trip to campus, please review the following list for important information about what to bring, and things that are prohibited. Also, be sure to check with your roommates about items you may share!
The items listed below are prohibited and should not be brought to your room. Staff and the New Jersey Fire Marshall conduct regular health and safety/fire safety inspections. Students found with prohibited items are subject to disciplinary action.
Hi all! I have a question to see if anyone has ever run across this situation. I have a client that currently does a lot of blind drop shipping for their EDI Trading Partners. For example, someone will buy on Home Depot's website, that order will come via EDI into Acumatica, and my customer ships it on behalf of Home Depot. The issue I am running into is that my client says that Home Depot is very strict on the formatting of the packing list. It should look as if Home Depot themselves sent the package. Home Depot does have specifications on where data needs to print and the template look with even specific pixel sizes and locations. The customer can print these packing slips out of their EDI system but they need to manually go in and put the information manually which basically negates any integration that they were looking to accomplish with Acumatica and their EDI provider. I am not 100% sure that the Acumatica Report Designer can handle the template requirements from their trading partners so I'm wondering if anyone has run into this before and what path did they take to resolve this. Back in my legacy days, we would use some overlay program where we can scan the template and then overlay the data over it. Any thoughts? I really appreciate any help you can provide.
This is basically my Burning Man checklist and all what supplies to bring to Burning Man each year. Karla and I have a storage unit where we store most of our Burning Man gear and accessories, which is a huge help since I travel internationally and can only bring two suitcases with me on my trip.
The following items, if found on campus, may be a violation of University policy and may result in a referral to Student Conduct or to the Office of Residence Life. A more extensive list can be found on the Campus Living Policies Page.
