Glide Through Airports with the Hulken Rolling Carry-On Tote
Hulken just made airport traveling easier with a Schelp Stack and a carry-on!
Well, Hulken did it again. Hulken blew my mind. As I wrote in my other Hulken article, the Hulken rolling tote is one of my favorite BIG BAGS and now Hulken made a super lightweight rolling carry on tote and I am obsessed. From overnight business trips to weekend getaways, the Hulken rolling Carry-On Tote and Schelp Stack makes life easier (and more stylish). Read on to learn all about them.

My Hulken Collection:
I’ve owned a Hulken for a long while now. I have many and you can read all about them (a full review with how I use them in everyday life and for travel) here on my website. They all have wheels that glide super easy over many surfaces and I LOVE THEM. I’d buy all the colors if I could and give them as gifts. I especially love the new TEAL and LILAC colors!

The Hulken Carry-On vs. the Hulken size small
Bottom Line: Are They Worth It?
Don’t feel like reading this article? Well, here’s my summary:
Between the Schlep Stack and the Hulken Carry On, I am a firm believer than an over-packer like myself could actually use these to have a great 3-4 day trip with everything I’d need.
The Hulken rolls on many surfaces
After a full day of testing (I packed, unpacked, rolled it in my house and in my yard and packed the cubes in both the Hulken Carry-On and in the Hulken small, lifted the carry-on packed around the house to test it’s durability, shook the packing cubes while packed and unpacked, and more), YES, I’d buy them over and over again.
You can hold it by the top with it’s handle
Hulken makes a really great product that is affordable and durable. I LOVE that it’s lightweight as is, so I can pack quite a bit into it and not worry about going over TSA weight or size limits. I can prove it too….read on to learn more.

The Hulken Schelp Stack Packing Set
Hulken The Schelp Stack Packing Set
Due to being a huge fan, Hulken sent me their latest travel product, The Schlep Stack Packing Set, and upon first glance, I told myself there was no way I was going to be able to fit everything I’d need for a long weekend getaway in the clear cubes. I was wrong. I love this waterproof set and it not only fits in the Hulken carry-on, but it also fits perfectly in the Hulken small. You can also just purchase this set for any luggage.
My Hulken packing cubes hold a lot!
I did love the waterproof zippers on each cube. They seal up really, really well. I’ve seen this new waterproof zipper on my husband’s cooler, the CORE, and it really does keep liquids inside! It’s a little tough to get going, but it is highly effective so you can not worry about your liquids spilling into your luggage.
There is still room after packing the cubes in!
In the largest cube, I packed clothes for a long weekend (warm weather clothing) and two pairs of shoes, socks and underwear and a bathing suit and still had room for more. In the other cubes, I fit a hairdryer, curling iron, makeup, all my travel sized product needs, brushes, and more. I’d use this packing set for any trip, airport or car adventure.
The Hulken carry-on stored this and many other outfits
After stacking this packing set into my Hulken Rolling Carry On and once into my Hulken small, there was still room in the tote for anything else I needed. If I was packing heavier clothes for a winter or late fall trip, I’d use this extra room for a sweater, sweatshirt or boots.
The Carry-On next to the Hulken small
The Hulken Rolling Carry-On Tote
Hulken sent me their Hulken Rolling Carry-On Tote, and it is different than the regular totes as it’s somewhat made of different material and has several unique packing features. It’s the same size as the regular Hulken small, 14”x9”x22” when open, making them meet TSA travel standards for most airlines.
The Small is on top and the carry-on is on the bottom in this picture
The Hulken small has the same dimensions so you could also use it as a carry on. The small just has a few details missing, making it a good carry-on option, but this specific Hulken carry on is a GREAT carry-on option.
I love all my Hulkens for travel and much more
It’s super lightweight at 4.4 lbs (2kg), holds 41 L, and is made out of PVC coated material. The regular Hulken bags are more like a super thick tarp material, but this one is smoother. It has Velcro pockets on either side of the tote to shove your two tote style handles into so they don’t get tangled on the plane. It has a third handle for easy rolling through an airport.
The inside of the Hulken carry-on
The top is zippered, so you can seal it up tight. It has a handle on the zippered “lid” and one on the side for easy lifting into the overhead bins on planes. The inside has two pockets; one zippered and one smaller unzippered one. It has Velcro straps so you can tuck a laptop in it and secure it.
I love the side handle for easy picking up and storage on a plane
When you get home, the Hulken Carry-On folds up like the regular Hulken’s, taking up much less space than a traditional carry-on. It’s wipeable (inside and out), so you can wipe out all that sand you bring back from your beach getaways for years to come. It comes with a dust bag as well.
I LOVE all things HULKEN!
