Last update: 16/11/2021

People travel for different purposes which include businesses, holiday, tourism, employment, education and others.  Given this, each travel has its unique needs in terms of luggage. In other words, there is no one type of luggage that is suitable for all types of travel. This explains the reasons why there are different kinds of luggage. If you are traveling, it is important that you pick right that will satisfy your travel needs. Here are some tips help you choose the right luggage for your visit to Canada or other destinations.

Type of Travel vs Type of Baggage

Baggage typesThe first question that you should ask yourself when it is time for you to decide which type of luggage that will meet your requirements or that will be suitable for you is 'what type of travel or trip are you embarking on.' As it has been mentioned above, there are different kinds of travel that one can embark on which include international travel, hotels, camping, holiday, and many more.

The type of travel you are embarking on will determine the type as well as the size of baggage you will go with it. If you are going for a few days camping, you will require just few items and this means that you will require small luggage. But if you are going for a month holiday, you will require a bigger luggage. Knowing the type of travel, you are embarking on is very important because every other thing or arrangement concerning the travel depends on it and this is why you should not forget it. Regardless of the moving type, you should always try to pack in a way that allows you to travel light, this way you can save both money but also your health.

Duration of the stay

This is another crucial question to ask yourself in order to determine the right bag for your trip. If you are visiting other country just for few days, it means that you will not need a lot of your personal belongings or clothing. In other words, you will not be traveling with a large bag unless you want to deliver some package. The reverse will be the case if you will stay for months or years, for example if you are planning removals to Canada from the UK due to employment opportunity, in that case you will require a large luggage.  You may also require a company that will help you withsending furniture to Canadaor sending excess baggage.

Small luggage when traveling alone

The number of people going for journey with you also determines the right luggage for you. If you are traveling alone to Canada, you will only think about your personal requirement. But, if you are embarking on a travel with your whole family, you have also to provide for the luggage needs of your family. You may consider buying a large size bags that will accommodate some of the items that will be required by your family throughout your stay in the place you are going to. It will be better to pack these items together than for each person in your family to have a separate bag for their own. For example, you can pack toiletries, groceries and other things which everybody will use.

Baggage type tailored to items you are taking

Special type of luggageIt is recommendable that you first write down the various items that you might need to take with you. Some people may buy their baggage before listing the items that they will travel with. This is not a good idea because you may buy to small bag only to discover that you have many items than you can fit in your new bag. This will only amount to a waste of money and time. So, know the items that you will be traveling with and then buy a luggage that will contain all of them.

Selecting luggage accordingly to activities

The types of activities you will be engaging in will determine to a certain extent, the type of luggage you will require. This is because each activity has its unique gears and these gears affect the size of your belongings. For example, if you are planning to go on fishing during a holiday trip, you may come along with your fishing net unless you want to hire it there. If you are traveling with your own, it means that you will buy a baggage type that will accommodate and suit your fishing gears and tools. The same is applicable when you plan to hunt or explore wildlife.

Types of baggage available

Travel bags nowadays are available in a number of types. Some have wheels while there are some that don't have. There are wheeled backpacks as well as ordinary backpacks. The first thing that you should consider when deciding the type of baggage that will serve you best is your comfort. If you are comfortable with a backpack, then you should buy it. If you are comfortable with duffel bags, go for that. However, it is recommendable that you buy a type that combines features of several types of bags like a wheeled backpack.

If you are able to buy a quality back, you will not have any need to buy another in case of next journey. The quality depends to a greater extent on the type of material used in making it. Items made from pure leather will last for a lifetime. The only problem with them is that they are very expensive.
