JML VacPac Vacuum Seal Storage Bags
The idea is that you pack your items for storage in the plastic bag and then seal it with the aid of a little plastic gizmo which you run along the upper edge of the bag so pressing together the zipper type closure to make an airtight seal. This done you then insert the nozzle of your vacuum cleaner into the special one way valve and literally suck the air out. The bag compresses around the contents as the air is removed and flattens the whole package into an easily stored and transportable slab. It was quite amazing just how small a parcel my pile of clobber became! The whole process was quick and easy thanks to clear instructions on the box.
JML state that the bags will compress your clothing and other textiles in seconds giving 300% more storage space in cupboards, drawers and wardrobes. The bags also protect against damp, dust, dirt and bugs. They are made for JML in China and are re-usable and recyclable. They are suitable for most textile items but the box does warn that they are unsuitable for the storage of feather filled pillows and duvets.
The company make their 'VacPac' bags in a variety of sizes to suit different needs, jumbo size, large, hanging VacPacs, under bed storage bags, as well as the standard type that I bought.
I can foresee that I will reuse these bags over and over again and would recommend them to anyone needing to store or transport bulky items.

After several years of use these storage bags are still with me. One has developed a slight tear, but a quick tape-up job (good old Duck Tape!) has meant I can still use the bag. These days, the bags are used mainly for storing surplus bedding in the loft rather than for transporting items.
I would definitely recommend JML storage bags to others.Thank you for reading.
