What do you all do about transporting clothing when camping. Do you use a regular suitcase, bags or something genius that fits well into the car and can be used as storage inside the tent?

We use the big supermarket shopping bags - the bags for life but the more heavy duty ones.

One bag for every person holds clothes, towel, wash bag etc. Easier to pack into the car and easier to find stuff in the tent.

Try blue IKEA bags would also work well.

We took a hold-all the first time but never again. Spent ages rummaging around looking for stuff and it was a pain to store in the tent.

We do the same thing. The 40p Tesco or Sainsbury's bags. Blankets, waterproofs etc in an IKEA bag.
