Know before you buy
The Tote-A-Ton offers over 6,400 cubic inches of packing volume. It is designed to hold as much as a traditional trunk, making it suitable for bulky items like bedding, sports gear, or several weeks' worth of clothing.
It is constructed from 420D nylon, which is lightweight and tear-resistant. While it is sturdy enough for general travel and storage, keep in mind that it is a soft-sided bag without a rigid frame, so you should pack fragile items carefully.
The bag features a collapsible design. When empty, it folds down to a flat, compact size, allowing you to easily tuck it into a closet, under a bed, or inside another suitcase.
Yes, in addition to the main compartment, it includes a zippered interior pocket specifically designed to keep smaller essentials like keys, chargers, or toiletries secure and easy to find.
The 420D nylon is water-resistant, which helps protect your belongings from light moisture or spills. However, it is not fully waterproof or submersible, so it is best to keep it dry during heavy rain.
The bag is exceptionally lightweight, weighing only 1 pound when empty. This allows you to maximize your packing capacity without adding unnecessary weight to your load.
