Packing Checklist Spreadsheet, Reusable Packing List for Solo and Group Trips, Family Vacation Checklist, Google Sheets and Excel

A reusable packing checklist for families and anyone who packs for more than one person. The list is ready the day you open it, counts how many of each thing to bring from the nights, and shows only what this trip needs.

📊 WHAT IT DOES

✓ A ready list of about 110 things in 10 sections: clothes, toiletries, health, tech, documents, kids, beach, cold weather, outdoor and travel day. Rename, add or delete anything.
✓ Bring counts itself: socks and underwear for each night, tops for every two nights, one toothbrush each, one sunscreen for the group.
✓ Kind of trip: beach, city, cold weather, camping, business, cruise or road trip. Going abroad adds passports and adapters. The rest says Skip.
✓ Up to 4 travelers with a check mark each. Shared items need only one check. A dash means that person does not need it.
✓ Status for every item: Packed, To pack or 2 of 4.
✓ Before You Go: 20 tasks like hold the mail, check in online and charge every device, each with its own due date counted back from the day you leave.
✓ Trips: every trip you pack for, with what you forgot, so it is on the list next time.
✓ Three charts: packed by section, tasks by how early they are due, and nights away this year by month.
