Practical packing solutions: Make your family camping trips easier with HandiWorld
Packing for a camping trip with kids? Discover how the HandiHoldall, HandiDuffel and HandiRack can help you stay organised and reduce those packing stress levels on the road.
Camping with children can be a magical experience—freedom, fresh air, and late-night stories around fire-pits. But let’s be honest: getting there with all your camping kit can be stressful.
That’s where our innovative, affordable HandiWorld travel solutions like the HandiHoldall roof bag, HandiDuffel travel bags, and HandiRack roof bars come in.
If you’re planning a family camping trip in the UK, this guide shows how our Handi-products can make packing easier, cars more organised, and trips on the whole a little less stressful.
We can’t do anything about those cows at 5am in that field next door though!!
Increase car storage with the HandiHoldall soft roof bag
The 175, 330 or 400 litres HandiHoldall soft roof bag creates additional storage on your car roof. The three different sizes accommodate any need. The 175L smaller version is perfect for cyclists and sports enthusiasts who need roof space for that all important equipment.
The 330 and 400 litres are ideal for tents, bedding, camping chairs and even muddy boots.
The HandiHoldalls all attach to fixed roof bars or our very own HandiRack roof bar system. And, unlike hard roof boxes, our HandiHoldall roof bags fold away when not in use, and fit inside the car boot for easy storage.
Stay organised on the road with HandiDuffel bags and our back seat organiser
Camping can be messy, but not if your gear is organised and sorted. The HandiDuffel bags give you a choice of 95 and 135 litres of flexible, waterproof, easy-to-carry space for clothes, electronics, food or wet-weather gear. Soft-sided and waterproof, they slide easily into awkward corners, car boots (and HandiHoldalls).
With strong carry handles you can get the kids to carry their own bags, and belongings stay easy to access when you’re on the move.
The HandiWorld car back seat organiser goes one step further if you’ve got younger campers travelling with you. No matter how many bags you take camping, they will always have a snack and their own space for favourite toys and belongings right there within reach.
HandiRack: Quick and easy roof storage for any car
The HandiRack is a fabulous travel solution for families without fixed roof rails. No need to price up expensive fixed roof bars that you might need to pay someone to fit.
The HandiRack roof bars inflate in minutes with the included pump, they fit most cars, and support up to 80kg of rooftop luggage (subject to car manufacturer specifications). The HandiRack is fully removable, making it perfect for holidays – and also to lend to family or friends for their one-off road trips. We’ve even heard from customers who have taken their HandiRack with them for hire cars on holidays abroad.
Smart packing means less stress at the campsite
Arriving at a campsite with clearly organised storage means faster setup, less digging through bags, and more time relaxing. A typical family of four can easily store their tent, chairs, sleeping bags and personal items using a HandiHoldall, two HandiDuffels and a HandiRack.
Top three tips for packing:
- Whatever you need at the campsite first, pack last!
- Travelling with a pushchair? Pack it at the top of the boot for easy access on the journey and on arrival.
- Don’t forget the marshmallows.
