The 12 Best Travel Items For Safe A Road Trip in 2020"},"content":{"rendered":"

Even with all that\u2019s going on due to COVID-19, some things are going to stay the same. That includes the desire to get away from your current surroundings. However, travel and vacations are going to take a very different form in the months and possibly years to come.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Concerns about airport safety and travel restrictions are going to make flying less of a viable proposition for a while, which means road trips are a great option. In order to give smart gifts to your clients and customers, you want to make sure you are thinking of their current situation, making <\/span>road trip gifts<\/span><\/a> a great idea.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Why Road Trip in 2020?<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n

We already mentioned that travel restrictions, especially international travel, are keeping people from being able to take conventional vacations for the time being. Road trips offer a bit more flexibility. Here\u2019s why:<\/span><\/p>\n

Location<\/b>: Most flights are going to take you in and out of urban hubs where COVID-19 is more common. However, with a <\/span>road trip<\/span><\/a>, you can drive from your home to rural areas. Of course, you want to make sure you and your party have a recent negative test, and that you\u2019re not heading into any hotspots on the way to your destination.<\/span><\/p>\n

Safety<\/b>: In a plane, you may be seated near a lot of people you don\u2019t know. At least in a car, you will know everyone you\u2019re with, and will likely have been tested. Outside of gas and supplies, you won\u2019t be coming into contact with nearly as many shared surfaces.<\/span><\/p>\n

Safer attractions<\/b>: A lot of common tourist attractions are closed or have heavily reduced occupancy due to safety concerns. However, on a road trip, the journey is every bit as exciting as the destination. Driving down a scenic stretch of highway or by a natural vista is something that\u2019s still completely safe if you\u2019re in the car.\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Key Items For Road Tripping<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n

With this in mind, here are some promotional items and PPE well suited for a future road trip.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Hand Sanitizer<\/b>
\n<\/b><\/h3>\n

Hand sanitizer is going to be something people carry in their cars, bags and purses on some level for quite some time. It\u2019s the easiest way to reduce the chance of spread when coming into contact with shared surfaces, and can also be applied to the surfaces themselves in a pinch. We offer various FDA compliant <\/span>portable travel sized hand sanitizers<\/span><\/a>, and you want to be stocked up before your trip, and we can help no matter the size needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Portable<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Sanitizer Wipes<\/b><\/h3>\n

We mentioned before how hand sanitizer can be used to clean shared surfaces as well as your hands, but that doesn\u2019t make it necessarily the best fit for that particular job. One thing you want to look into is\u00a0<\/span>Custom Sanitizer Wipes<\/span><\/a>. Whether you want to clean your car handle or something else that may have accidentally touched a shared surface, these are perfect for spot cleaning. Make sure people associate your brand with this added safety by applying your custom company logo on the wipes container.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Cloth Face Masks and Coverings<\/b><\/h3>\n

You\u2019re simply going to need a face mask or covering throughout your road trip. Whether it\u2019s to go into a hotel for the night, stop to get gas, food, or other public settings where masks are now a necessity. In these public settings, it may not only be highly encouraged to wear a mask, it may be mandated. As a result, you want to have a comfortable cloth reusable mask option you can use during your trip, like our <\/span>100% Cotton Reusable Face Mask<\/span><\/a>. This is constructed with 2 layers of combed cotton and designed to be easily worn all day. You can apply your company\/brand logo to the mask with full-color dye-sublimation, so clients and customers alike can showcase your brand while out and about. And don’t worry, we have tons of different custom logo masks<\/a> to match your brand and style.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. No Touch Tools<\/b><\/h3>\n

We mentioned how hand sanitizer wipes can help clean some surfaces off in a pinch, but it\u2019s arguably more preferable not to have to touch them at all. This includes gas pumps, elevator buttons, and doorknobs. The <\/span>Custom TouchTool Pro<\/span><\/a> is one of the most popular of these brass germ keys and door openers<\/a>. It\u2019s designed from a copper alloy that is naturally antimicrobial, meaning you don\u2019t have to worry about germs lingering on the tool itself. You can also customize this great gift idea with your logo using pad printing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. 2-in-1 Power Bank + UV Sterilizers<\/b><\/h3>\n

With any trip these days, you\u2019re going to be heavily reliant on your devices to keep in contact, check important facts, and chronicle your trip. This makes items like the <\/span>UVClean P4000 5x Flip<\/span><\/a>, a perfect fit. Keep your devices charged and kill germs on the go wiht the UV light. Another great option that can help keep you germ-free is the <\/span>UVClean Qi<\/span><\/a>. Featuring built-in Ultraviolet Light for sanitizing, and 15W Qi wireless charging technology for a battery boost while it cleans. Show off your brand as you clean by applying your custom logo with screen printing.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Tire Gauge<\/b><\/h3>\n

Being that your universe is essentially centered around your vehicle during your road trip, you want all the tools for a roadside emergency, like the <\/span>Safety Digital Gauge Tire Tool<\/span><\/a>. On top of being a digital tire gauge, it also serves as a seat-belt cutter, LED flashlight (with batteries) and window glass breaker. <\/span>You can also customize the tool with your company logo with screen printing.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Car Organizer<\/b><\/h3>\n

Traveling right now requires more packing than ever, so you want to make sure you have all your essentials well-organized. Car organizers like the <\/span>Carhartt Backseat Car Organizer<\/span><\/a> are an invaluable resource in order to make this happen. This organizer can be hooked to the back of a car seat using an adjustable strap, and has a padded line pocket suitable for a 15\u201d laptop or tablet. With a large open storage compartment, you can quickly access things from the front seats as well. You can apply your company logo for an added bit of branding with screen or full-color printing.<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Tumblers<\/b><\/h3>\n

Branded tumblers<\/a> are popular promotional items due to their versatility, and on a road trip where you want to cut down on garbage, they are even more useful. We recommend going with one of the major brand options out there, like the <\/span>CamelBak Hot Cap Copper VSS 20oz<\/span><\/a>. The tumbler is constructed with double-wall 18\/8 grade stainless steel and copper vacuum insulation. This combination can keep a drink warm for 8 hours and cool for up to 24 hours. Also, it\u2019s perfectly suited for the bumps of the road with its hardy powder coating. To truly make this tumbler unique, you can add your brand logo with laser printing and engraving.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Custom<\/a><\/p>\n

9. Sunscreen<\/b><\/h3>\n

COVID-19 isn\u2019t the only health concern out there. Protecting your skin from sun exposure is essential, which is where <\/span>1 oz Sunscreen SPF30 (USA Made)<\/span><\/a> comes in. This is biodegradable, meaning you don\u2019t have to worry about any environmental issues. Just apply it any time you are going to be out in the sun. Apply your logo to this travel essential with full-color printing or hot stamp printing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

10. Travel Bags<\/b><\/h3>\n

Just like a car organizer, customized duffel bags<\/a> and backpacks<\/a> are essential to keep your gear protected and organized during your trip. One great option is the <\/span>elleven™ 22″ Deluxe Duffel<\/span><\/a>. This has a variety of different useful pockets, from a media pocket with earbud port to a ventilated side pocket suitable for shoes and damp garments. Best of all, you get the elleven™ lining and hardware that customers have come to trust and love. Showcase your company in style by adding your logo through screen printing or embroidery.<\/span><\/p>\n

11. Bluetooth Speakers<\/b><\/h3>\n

Playing music or podcasts is great to pass the time while traveling, and the <\/span>WaterBox Waterproof Wireless Speaker<\/span><\/a> is a perfect audio option. Notably, on top of its durable rubber trim, it\u2019s waterproof. You may not be submerging it in water, but at least you\u2019ll be protected from sudden rain if you\u2019re relaxing outside or the window is open in the car. As an added benefit, you can put your company\u2019s logo right across the speaker front with full-color printing.<\/span><\/p>\n

12. PPE Kits<\/b><\/h3>\n

We\u2019ve hammered home the importance of PPE while doing any traveling, road trip or not, but sometimes, you may forget an item. This is part of why PPE kits are a good idea. As long as you have the kit, you\u2019ll be covered at least until you can get to a store to buy more supplies. One of our key examples for travelers is going to be the <\/span>Return to Work PPE Kit-Blue<\/span><\/a>. Don\u2019t let the name fool you, it has all a traveler needs, including:<\/span><\/p>\n
