Product Information

Full details

Homeslates 90L Moving Bags/Storage Totes are designed for individuals and families managing house moves, long-term storage, or travel, offering a durable and organized solution. Their key benefit lies in their heavy-duty, water-resistant construction and unique backpack straps for comfortable, hands-free carrying. A potential caveat is their size, which may be too large for very small items or limited storage spaces when not in use, although they do fold flat.

FAQs

What are the dimensions and capacity of each bag?

Each bag measures 74cm x 36cm x 33cm and has a capacity of 90 liters.

How do I label the bags?

Each bag features a built-in tag pocket on the side, where you can slide in a label card to identify the contents.

Can these bags be used for long-term storage?

Yes, the water-resistant polypropylene material protects contents from moisture and scratches, making them suitable for long-term storage in locations like lofts or garages.

How do the backpack straps work?

The reinforced straps are designed to be worn like a backpack, allowing for hands-free carrying and easier transport of heavier loads.

Are these bags completely waterproof?

The bags are made from water-resistant material, which protects against splashes and light moisture. They are not designed to be submerged or withstand heavy, prolonged rain.

How much weight can each bag hold?

The bags are built with reinforced handles and heavy-duty zippers designed to bear significant weight, suitable for typical household items. However, they are not rated for specific weight limits. Avoid overstuffing.

Can these bags be washed in a washing machine?

No, these bags should not be machine washed. Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.

How compactly do the bags fold?

When folded, each bag measures approximately 20cm x 26cm x 3cm, making them easy to store when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Bag zipper is difficult to close

Ensure contents are not overstuffed and are evenly distributed. Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth and carefully remove it. Gently pull the zipper to close.

Backpack straps feel uncomfortable

Adjust the strap length to fit your torso properly. For heavier loads, ensure the weight is distributed evenly within the bag. Consider using the reinforced handles for shorter distances.

Visible contents not desired

Utilize the integrated tag pocket to label contents clearly. Items can be placed inside smaller opaque bags or containers before packing into the tote if full privacy is needed.

Bag seems to be leaking moisture

While water-resistant, the bags are not fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Ensure seams and zippers are closed tightly. For very sensitive items, consider using additional waterproof liners inside the bag.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and water-resistant construction protects belongings.
  • Hands-free carrying with reinforced backpack straps enhances portability.
  • Clear panels and tag pockets improve organization and visibility of contents.
  • Reusable and foldable design offers an eco-friendly alternative to cardboard boxes.
  • Generous 90L capacity accommodates large volumes of items.

Cons

  • Large 90L size may be excessive for smaller items or sparse packing needs.
  • While water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof; prolonged exposure to heavy rain may still cause issues.
  • Backpack straps are best suited for carrying full bags; might be less comfortable when partially filled.
  • The clear material, while functional, may not appeal to those who prefer opaque storage for privacy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These bags require no assembly. Simply unfold them from their flat storage state. Unzip the top closure, open the bag to its full capacity, and begin packing.

Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of items including clothing, bedding, toys, books, kitchenware, and general household goods. They are ideal for moving, storage (lofts, garages, attics), travel, camping, and organizing.

Care: To clean, wipe the interior and exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the bags are completely dry before folding and storing them to prevent mold or mildew. Do not overload the bags beyond their structural capacity, particularly concerning the zip and handle strength. Allow bags to air out if they have been stored for extended periods or if any odors are present.
