About us

Packing List Maker is a free tool for one job: getting you out the door with everything you need, and nothing you don't.

Who makes it

We're the small independent team behind DailyWall, an iPhone app that puts your to-do list on your lock screen. A packing list is the to-do list everyone writes before a trip, so we built the best one we could and made it free.

How the lists are made

Every item in the maker has simple rules: which trips it belongs to, which weather, which activities, and how the amount should grow with the number of days. Clothing counts assume you'll do laundry about once a week, and carry-on trips get leaner counts. Our editors write and review each list and guide, and we update them when travel rules or good practice change.

Rules about documents, liquids and banned items vary by country, airline and cruise line, so our guides tell you where to double-check rather than guessing for you.

What we don't do
