Traveling Pro Tip: Shipping in Advance! ✈
If you are flying to your destination, I recommend either shipping disposable items to your hotel or a nearby Target or a Whole Foods for fast and easy pick-up when you arrive. We've done both. You can purchase many items online and have them shipped directly instead of you having to pack and ship.
Great items to ship:
Diapers, wipes & swim diapers
I try to calculate how many diapers I'll need and, usually, I only have a few left over that I can easily bring home if I have the space.Liquid items
Such as toothpaste we can all use, sunscreen, and bars/pouches/snacks the kids eat and love.Dish soap
… because many hotels give you toxic products that I prefer not to use.
Shipping all of these will save so much room in your luggage and avoid so much hassle so you can get right to cherishing your time with your family.
