i'd use 2 large laundry sacks for checked baggage. if you want to secure them, you can use a cable lock.They fold down to take up minimal closet space and you can use them to bring stuff back.

cardboard boxes are much more unwieldy given the same volume space.

My space in NYC is pretty small so I dont want to take a suitcase, do you guys have any ideas for anything disposable that I can store my clothes just for the flight? I was even thinking of just a couple cardboard boxes. I would love any ideas you guys have.

If not, is checking a cardboard box ok?
