How to Pack for a Camping Trip

Just moved to Kansas City and ready to take a trek through the great outdoors? You’re going to want to pack accordingly. You’re obviously not going to use the same packing supplies that you would if you were going on a vacation to the tropics, which is why our packing services professionals at All My Sons Moving & Storage have created this checklist.

Camp Essentials

Consider everything that you’ll need to include in your packing supply list as a basis. You’ll need a spacious and durable tent to sleep in, sleeping bags, a Firestarter kit, pocket knife, mallet, flashlights, cookware and a water filter.

Food and Water

Unless you’re planning on doing some fishing, hunting or foraging berries, you’ll want to include canned goods and bottled waters on your camping packing supplies list.

Personal Supplies

These are the items that will make your life in the wild a little more comfortable. Some of these supplies to pack include toilet paper, hand sanitizer, mosquito repellant, sunscreen, toothbrush and toothpaste.

First Aid Kit

No camping trip should be without a first aid kit. While a good portion of camping trips are relatively safe and injury free, things do occur. Be prepared to handle cuts, sprains and other ailments that may come up. Pack ibuprofen, bandages, anti-histamine relief, burn cream, etc.

Outdoor Clothing

High heels and sandals aren’t going to cut it in the outdoors. Opt for hiking boots and jeans instead. Additionally, you may want to get yourself a pair of gloves, long sleeved shirts, a lightweight hat and jacket, sunglasses and wool socks. Make sure that you’re fully prepared yourself for your next outdoors adventure!
