Squadcation

Group Trip Packing List

Two lists, not one: what everyone packs, and the shared stuff someone has to own. Pick your trip type for a tailored checklist — the second list is the one groups always forget.

The list groups actually forget: shared items

Everyone remembers their own clothes. What gets left behind is the group gear — the speaker, the cooler, the trash bags, a first-aid kit. Assign each shared item to one person by name so it doesn't get "someone will bring it."

Pack for the trip type

A ski trip and a beach weekend need very different bags. Use the trip-type selector above to swap the checklist, then have everyone check off their own — and lock in the rest of the plan while you're at it.

FAQ

What should you pack for a group trip?

Your personal essentials (ID, phone + charger, toiletries, weather-appropriate clothes) plus the trip-type items above. The key extra: assign shared group gear — speaker, cooler, games, trash bags, first-aid kit — to specific people.

How do you organize packing for a big group?

Split it into two lists: what everyone packs individually, and shared group items assigned to one person each by name. That way the communal stuff has an owner and nothing gets double-packed or forgotten.
