Quick Tip: Stinky Luggage

Musty trunks and funky smelling luggage pieces can be freshened up by sprinkling baking soda inside, closing the case and then let sit a day or two. Remove the baking soda with a vacuum.

If you don’t use your luggage that much and have it stored away for long periods of time, make little sachets filled with your favorite potpourri (light scents are best) or even just filled with baking soda and keep them stored in the luggage until you travel. You could also use small, lightly scented bars of soap as well.

One more tip: If you are short on storage space, you can store off season clothing or extra blankets and bedding in the unused luggage.
