Shopping For Luggage

When it comes time to take a trip by car hire one of the most important things you can do to prepare is make sure you have the right luggage, but how do you choose? Will you go for something fashionable and inexpensive that you might need to replace after just a few uses or will you choose a hard wearing brand that will last a lifetime.

Beyond that the options are endless; Samsonite, Claiborne, Turni, Travelpro, American Tourister, a carry on, a spinner, rolling, you name it! Here I've put together a couple top picks from popular internet shopping searches, as well as one gem that may be harder to find though I think the market for it is growing.

For travelers who fly often some trusty hardshell rolling luggage is a great way to protect your things from a rough ride or baggage handlers. Today's hardshell luggage is made with durable lightweight materials designed to flex when compressed by the weight of other luggage. Amazon has a great affordable set of hardshell rolling luggage by Traveler's Choice.

If you're looking for something fun, fashionable and affordable check out this 4 piece luggage set by Rockland on Overstock.com. It might not be the most durable for frequent flyers, but its expandable and you can pack it to the brim with all your favorite duds when you're traveling by car rental.

Eco travelers could appreciate the Renovo luggage collection by Heys USA. Made from 100% biodegradable fabric, it will go perfectly well with your fuel efficient or economy car rental. Irv's Luggage has this complete five piece set available in four attractive colors for just $250.
