There’s more to preparing for a business trip than booking a hotel. While the right hotel can make your stay far more comfortable and enjoyable, proper packing will go a long way in helping you make the most of your business travels. The following items should be considered on any packing list.

What Items Should You Bring on Business Trips?

1. Travel Document Organizer

Keeping important documents together in a folder or organizer will help you avoid delays or disruptions during your travels. Documents such as reservation confirmations, tickets, medical cards, and IDs may all be needed at different phases of your journey. Keeping them in one convenient location will help you keep track of everything — and more importantly, not lose an important document right before you need to use it.

2. Cord Case & Multi-Charger

While today’s hotels have more outlets to account for our increased reliance on technology, it is still a good idea to pack a cord case and multi-charger for your business travels. A cord case provides a convenient location to store all cords, cables, adapters, and chargers. 

After all, you don’t want to lose your phone charger in the bottom of your suitcase. Similarly, a multi-charger will allow you to charge your devices from the same socket, rather than having them spread across the hotel room.

3. USB Flash Drive

While many businesses can utilize cloud sharing via smart devices, it never hurts to bring a USB flash drive along with your important files. You can’t always count on everyone having the latest cloud sharing options available. Presentations and reports that will be needed during your trip can be kept on the flash drive for easy use on any computer. Flash drives also make it easy to transfer information to or from your clients.
