Safe, smart, and secured.
Traveling can be exciting, but it can also be stressful – especially when you’re trying to fit everything you need into a limited amount of luggage space. One of the things that many people struggle with is finding enough room for their pillow. However, there’s a simple solution that can help you save space in your luggage: fill your pillow with your clothes!
By using this travel hack, you can bring your pillow with you and still have plenty of space for all your other travel essentials. Here’s how to do it:
Choose the right pillow
First, choose a pillow that’s easy to stuff with clothes. A pillow with a zippered cover is ideal, as you can easily fill it up and zip it closed. However, any pillow with a removable cover will work.

Gather your clothes
Next, gather the clothes that you want to bring on your trip. Choose items that are soft and flexible, such as t-shirts, socks, and underwear. Avoid packing anything bulky or heavy, as this will make your pillow difficult to carry.
Stuff your pillow
Start by removing the cover from your pillow, if possible. Then, begin stuffing it with your clothes. Pack the clothes tightly, making sure to fill all the empty spaces in the pillow. Be sure not to overstuff it, as this will make the pillow too bulky to carry.
Use your pillow
Once your pillow is filled with clothes, you can use it just like any other pillow. It will provide you with the same comfort and support that you’re used to, while also saving space in your luggage.
Unpack and wear your clothes
When you arrive at your destination, simply unzip the pillow cover and unpack your clothes. They may be a bit wrinkled from being packed in the pillow, but a quick shake and hanging them up should help them to regain their shape.
Traveling with your pillow doesn’t have to be a hassle. By using this simple travel hack, you can bring your pillow with you and still have plenty of space for everything else you need. Give it a try on your next trip and see how it works for you!
