Travel Checklist

Here is a helpful guide with what you may need with you on your break, whether it’s a trip abroad or a summer ‘staycation’ in the UK. Our helpful guide will make sure you’re kitted-out with all the essentials and more…

Plug in

If you’re jetting off to another country, don’t let the wrong plug sockets thwart your fun. Check which plug adaptor suits the country you’ll be visiting and avoid paying more at the airport. If you’re going to be outdoors for long periods of time without being able to charge your phone, it’s worth investing in an external power pack – solar powered versions are also available for eco-conscious travellers.

Luggage Extras

Avoid paying extra for luggage allowance and ensure your case doesn’t exceed the limit with luggage scales. Bathroom scales can be awkward and unreliable to use, so this type of product could come in useful for years to come. Some luggage comes with small padlocks, however these can be easily opened or not the most robust mechanisms. Secure your case with extra for-purpose locks for peace of mind.

Camping & Outdoor Kit

There’s always something you discover you need when on an outdoor camping trip miles from modern conveniences. Some ideas that may bail you out of a situation include: robust wheeled luggage, cool boxes and chill-bags, collapsible chairs, electric pumps for inflatables (such as beds), refillable water bottles, lights and torches.

Keeping conveniences

Going away doesn’t have to mean going without. Travel kettles are ideal for that much-needed cup of tea when you’re miles from anywhere serving a cuppa. Travel irons, hairdryers, razors, straighteners and more are available if you still need to look your best on your travel

Entertainment

Travel TVs, portable radios and speaker kits can provide much needed escape and fun for those down-times.

Car Kit

Handheld vacuums could be ideal for a long journey with messy kids or pets. In-car phone holders and iPad brackets can provide that much-needed help with navigation or keeping passengers entertained.
