My uncle has a sleeping bag i can borrow but lost the compression sack. How would yall recommend packing it for the greyhound. I have one duffel bag with my clothes, toiletries and my electronic charging chords and my pillow. For the sleeping bag i was thinking about getting a bookbag and rolling the bag up and using bungee chords
Packing for orientation, suggestions?

Your title is misleading, I come here preparing to do battle over gun laws.
Get a big twine rope tie on that bag until it's rolled as tight as you can get it. Tie it up some more. It will fit under the greyhound bus well enough, the baggage hatch is #### near 4 feet high below the passengers on them things.austinmike Thanks this. -
Pack it into a laundry bag before you tie it up. You'll need a laundry bag.
austinmike and gentleroger Thank this. -

Dude good luck at orientation. Don't quit because of the way somebody there acts or berates you. If you survive orientation and training truck this career can be really rewarding. You will never see the people from orientation again after wards.

Take the pillow, and heavy coat, and wrap them in the sleeping bag, roll the bag up and tie it with a spare belt, then put it in a laundry bag. In your duffle, carry your clothes and your electronics and keep them close. Wear a hoodie. Let them stuff the laundry bag load under the bus and you keep your duffle.
When you get to the motel, leave the laundry bag in the room but carry your duffle with you at all times. Do not leave the important stuff in the room...especially if you get a roommate.
When in orientation, keep your business your business, stay away from the negative talk, and keep focus on your immediate goal, which is you being issued your own truck. Make it happen.
Luck in battle.One True Kim and Smut Thank this. -
I actually have the laundry bag already. I was just gonna fold it up and put it in the duffel but thats a good idea using it to carry my pillow and sleeping bag. Heck i can even put a few more items in with it.
