How do I pack bedding

[flying_babyb]

It just crossed my mind that bedding for 3 beds is alot of bedding. Now I was sitting on the floor in the pile of bedding and began to wonder,
How do I pack bedding?

We've recently tried those space bags and they work quite well. Perhaps something like that if the bedding is fluffy (like comforters and pillows, etc.)?

If it's just flat stuff (sheets, pillowcases, no loft blankets) just pack them in whatever you are using; box, suitcase...

Are you packing for a move?

Or for long term storage?

We used those jumbo Ziplock brand bags - they are HUGE - like 4 feet tall by 2 feet wide. We packed a queen, a double & 2 twin beds worth of bedding (and I have 2-3 sets for each bed) in about 4-5 jumbo ziplocks. We have 1-2 pieces of oversized luggage as well, we used those for comforters.

Pack them in empty suitcases or empty dresser drawers.

I am SO a Beverly Hillbilly. I packed mine in big black garbage bags. They fit anywhere in the truck, and were good for holding stuff to keep it from shifting. I multi-purpose pack.

I would suggest the trach bag method also, unless it's super fine stuff you don't want to risk tearing. It also makes great padding in the truck.

Fold it up and put it in a garbage bag. It compacts and is useful for padding other items.

It was one of the first things I figured out when moving in and out of dorms in college.

i waited till the movers brought those big boxes with the removable bars (for hanging clothes in). tossed the bedding in the bottom of the ones i was hanging shorter items in (shirts, skirts, pants). there's also usualy room on the top (above the bar but below the top of the box) for some more stuff before you tape it shut.

Hahahha, I guess I am too. I was thinking, you could use the comforter to cushion against breakables, and use the pillowcases to hold together odd-shaped loose-ends like rolling smaller lamps in them.
