Travel Wash Bags & Toiletry Bags
Hanging travel wash bags, clear airport liquids cases and waterproof toiletry bags - a place for every bottle, brush and blister pack.
What should I look for in a travel wash bag?
A hanging hook, a wipe-clean water-resistant lining, and a base structured enough to hold full-size bottles upright. Fabric wash bags are for the bathroom end of the trip; clear cases are for the airport security tray, where liquids must be 100ml or less. This range covers both, plus fold-out tiered bags for longer trips.
About our toiletry & wash bags
Every seasoned packer has a shampoo story. Our toiletry and wash bags exist so you never have another one: leak-resistant linings that keep escaped lotion contained, wipe-clean interiors for when the worst happens, and clear-window compartments that make security trays quicker. The hanging styles fold out flat and hook over any bathroom door or rail, turning the world's smallest hotel sink area into an actual shelf. Waterproof packing cubes and wash bags also earn their keep beyond the bathroom - swim kit, wet weather gear and post-beach bits all travel better sealed away from dry clothes. This collection covers washbags for every traveller: compact kits for carry-on liquids, family-sized organisers, and hospital bag packing cubes for the one trip where being organised matters most and nobody has spare hands. Free UK delivery on orders over £20, dispatched within 48 hours, money-back guarantee as standard.
Choosing a travel toiletry bag organiser
A good travel toiletry bag is really a wash bag organiser: separate pockets so bottles stop tipping into each other, a clear window so you can see what you have at a glance, and a wipe-clean lining for the day a lid works loose. Hanging styles fold out and hook over a door or rail, which turns a cramped hotel sink into usable shelf space and keeps everything off wet surfaces. For flights, a clear toiletry organiser doubles as your security bag - liquids stay visible and the tray goes through faster, and our guide to the 100ml liquids rule sets out exactly what has to go in it. Match the size to the trip: a slim kit for cabin-only liquids, a roomier organiser for a family bathroom, and a dedicated wet pocket for anything that might leak into your clothes.
Waterproof wash bags and hospital bag organisers
A waterproof wash bag earns its place the moment something leaks. The coated and wipe-clean bags in this range contain a spilled shower gel instead of passing it on to your clothes, and they rinse out afterwards rather than staining. The same qualities make them the sensible choice well beyond holidays: hospital bag packing cubes and wash bags are one of the most common uses we hear about, because a labelled, wipe-clean bag is something a partner or midwife can find in seconds without emptying the whole bag. Swim kit, gym showers, camping trips and toddler accidents all suit the same waterproof wash bag.

Travel Wash Bags & Toiletry Bags - FAQs
Are the wash bags fully waterproof?
The linings are water-resistant and wipe-clean - built to contain a leak inside the bag and keep splashes out. For soaking-wet swim kit, pair one with our dedicated waterproof cubes.
What's the point of a hanging toiletry bag?
Hotel bathrooms rarely have shelf space. A hanging bag hooks over the door or rail and folds out flat, so everything is visible and reachable without balancing bottles on a sink edge.
Do they work as a hospital bag organiser?
Yes - lots of customers use a wash bag plus two or three cubes to organise a hospital bag: one cube for you, one for baby, wash bag for toiletries. Everything findable one-handed.
What are the airport rules for liquids in a toiletry bag?
At many UK airports the long-standing rule still applies: liquids in containers up to 100ml, together inside one clear resealable bag around 20cm by 20cm. Some airports have newer scanners that relax this, but the limits change by airport, so check the official gov.uk hand luggage guidance before you fly (gov.uk hand luggage restrictions). A clear toiletry bag makes the security tray quicker either way.
What is the difference between a wash bag and a toiletry organiser?
In practice they are the same thing - a bag that holds your toiletries. We use toiletry organiser for styles with structured pockets and a clear window that keep bottles upright and visible, and wash bag for simpler zip pouches. Hanging versions of either add a hook so they open out over a rail.
Do I need a separate clear bag as well as a wash bag?
For flying, yes, and it makes life easier. Keep the liquids in a clear bag that already meets the size rule and never unpack it between trips, and keep everything else - brush, razor, solid deodorant, plasters - in your normal wash bag. At security only the clear one comes out.
Which wash bag is best for hand luggage only?
A slim, flat one. On a cabin-only trip the wash bag competes with your clothes for space, so a rigid bag that stands up is usually the wrong choice. Pick a soft, flat bag for the non-liquids and let a clear bag carry everything that counts towards the 100ml limit.
