An impressive ‘how to pack’ video, courtesy of Holiday Inn Express

If I had £1 for every ‘learn how to pack a suitcase’ or ‘top tips for packing’ article that I’ve read over the years, then I’d have … well, probably around £12. But you know what I mean.

Even Louis Vuitton tried to get in on the act this year with its ‘Art of Packing’ workshops in the Bond Street store.

These articles are all written by amateurs, though. ‘Put your socks in your shoes’, ‘select items which co-ordinate with multiple other items’ etc etc. Pah!

Meet Dave Hax. Dave really knows how to pack quickly and efficiently. Holiday Inn Express has now appointed him as their first ever ‘Efficiency Engineer’ to consult on services and facilities to ‘revolutionise the way people pack their suitcase’.

Here is Dave in action. It’s ‘extreme packing’! I promise you that you’ll learn something new if you watch this – the way this man fold a shirt in 5 seconds is astonishing! Whether you could replicate it is a different question ….
