We recommend campers pack for camp using a trunk (soft-sided trunk or traditional footlocker) and a duffle bag. The duffle is perfect for bedding, extra sheets, and other soft items like towels. This will be tucked away once everyone is unpacked. The trunk will be what the boys live out of as their “dresser.”
Please keep the trunk/footlocker size to no larger than 14 inches high and 36 inches wide. EverythingSummerCamp sells high-quality trunks. Through our High Rocks page, you should receive a discount on trunks at checkout. We suggest “Pop-Up Soft Camp Trunk” or “Happy Camper Trunk.”
There are many less expensive versions, including plastic-style trunks now on the market that will work for one or two summers.
Trunks can be brought to camp in your car, on the plane, or shipped. To simplify the process we are excited to partner with Ship Camps for shipping luggage. Ship Camps is a trusted service designed specifically for transporting trunks and duffels to camps. They handle the logistics, allowing us to focus on your child’s experience at camp.
This year, they are offering low-priced bundle options starting at just $99 per bag. Baggage registration opens on February 3, 2025 and all shipments are recommended to be booked by or before April 15th, which helps us and Ship Camps with planning.
You can register your bags at our Ship Camps High Rocks Page or by calling Ship Camps at (855)-540-2267.
If you plan to pick up your son from camp and then fly home, we highly recommend bringing an extra bag with you. Packing to head back home is often a tough task and campers’ items tend to have multiplied. An extra, foldable bag will help with all the odds and ends.
