Smart ways to store things at home, with Ziploc Space Bag

As you organize all the things in your house, it’s clear that items such as blankets, toys, seasonal products and so on take up lots of room. A very clever storage solution is the vacuum-seal storage bag. Ziploc Space Bags have airtight and watertight zippers and a one-way air valve so that, using an ordinary vacuum, you can suck out all the air in the bag. The result is a smaller package to store, saving space and keeping the items clean and safe.
There are dozens of smart applications for these vacuum-seal Ziploc Space Bags. Here are a few.

In the closet:

When it comes to our wardrobes, most of us wear 20 percent of our clothes 80 percent of the time. That leaves a lot of clothes just hanging around the closet. And if you’re working with a small closet, those garments are taking up some prime real estate!

The first step to any closet overhaul is remove everything. Then, separate everything by season, or winter and summer wear.

Store all your winter items, such as sweaters, ski coats, pants and bulky comforters, in vacuum-seal bags. Once the seasons change, your winter clothing comes out fresh and clean. Do the same for your summer wardrobe when the time comes.


Kids’ stuff:

Infant and toddler gear expands exponentially.  You can store a child’s precious baby clothes safely and securely, compress and protect extra bedding, pillows and blankets and provide a dirt- and allergen-free storage place for the stuffed animal overflow.


Around the house:

For belongings you want by your front door, use a bag in the closet. It’s a handy way to store mittens, scarves, hats and the like. The front door closet is also a great place for storing winter coats and foul
weather gear.

For the dining room, seal your good silver in airtight and watertight Ziploc Space Bags to put the brakes on the tarnishin process. Silver will tarnish when exposed to air and moisture.

In your attic, take advantage of empty suitcases by compressing seasonal clothing
or bedding in a bag, the place them inside the luggage. Stored items will be safe from moisture, pests, mildew, dirt and odors, and take up zero additional space.

  1. I bought some of these today because I'm moving soon, and I'm trying to get some of the things I don't need right now packed away. However, I noticed that now they have ones where you just roll the air out. Unfortunately the ones I bought are just for sweaters/shirts/jeans, etc... and I didn't see them available in the new style.

  2. I just thought of a small problem here.

    What happens if you want to pack some clothes in space bags to take on holiday/vacation, so you take them out and use them while you're there. But THEN... at the end before you go home, you want to pack your clothes back into those space bags again?

    OH NO! What is missing??!! *gasp!!*

    THE VACUUM CLEANER!! That's RIIIGHT!!

    No one takes a vac cleaner with them on vacation/holiday.

    So where on earth are you going to get one from?? :p

    1. On vacations I always have a small air pump for air mattresses (my makeup bag is bigger!) it blows up & has reverse to suck air out! Works perfectly!

    2. Hotels have vacuum cleaners. Call the hotel's housekeeping ahead of time and ask if they have vacuums with a detachable hose.
