It's compact to fit in places where our other trunks can't... a unique size for unique situations.For roughly a weeklong camp stay, pack and transport your camping gear and other camp supplies in the C&N Companion Steel Trunk. Trunks tend to serve as makeshift dressers too as campers tend to 'live out of' them throughout their summer stay. We stand behind and on top of our footlockersMore than just valuable storage space, this trunk is built with the same solid construction and traditional steel exterior as the rest of our steel trunks-ready to hold its own against the rugged world of summer camp year after year.

It's nothing short of impressive, but this trunk can withstand 800 pounds without being crushed! That's why our camp trunks are endorsed by more camps than any other trunk!On the topic of camp trunks, camp expert and co-author of 'The Summer Camp Handbook', Dr. Christopher Thurber had this to say: "You want something really sturdy, not the budget trunk you might get at a big boxa |store but something you can stand on because that's what kids will do at camp and they don't want to fall through."Built of a solid 3/8", cabinet-grade plywood, we armor our trunks in steel and dress them in nickel-plated hardware including four crush-proof corners and a slew of clamps to provide structural integrity. Other trunk hardware includes the two basic wire loop latches that secure the lid to the base, the center handle and latch, the two double-wide side handles, two back hinges, and the lid stay on the right side which keeps the lid from falling too far back and damaging your trunk or falling down too fast and hurting your hand.Yes, you'll spend considerably more on one of our trunks than you will a plastic tote or cardboard box. That's because a C&N camp trunk is an investment that you'll get a world of use out of far into the future.

But what size will suit your camper best, specific to his or her camp stay? You'll want to consider a few different factors before making your decision.First, get the right bed height for the bunks at camp. You might be able to find this on your camp information packet but, if not, don't be afraid to call up the camp for answers. Generally trunks under 14" work for most camps.Second, consider the amount of camp clothing, gear, and supplies you need to pack. Just because your child is going to camp for three weeks doesn't mean you need to pack clothes for three weeks, many camps have laundry service. Follow your camp's packing list.Third, consider what size clothing you're trying to pack. After all, a dozen Youth Small Tees won't eat up as much space as a dozen Adult Larges. The lists above will give you a good idea of what can fit inside each of our trunks. We used a combination of Youth Large and Adult Small clothing to create the lists. Our camp trunks are all 32" long and 18" wide, the only difference is in the height of trunks.CompanionWe designed with size in mind! Our smallest trunk means that it costs the least and weighs the least. It also means that it's the least expense when travelling on airlines. Most campers that use this trunk attend a camp with very low bed heights or consistently travel to camp via plane. Happy CamperBy far the most popular of our camp trunks, the Happy Camper is the safest choice. Why? Because it works! Sized right for pretty much any camp, the Happy Camper can do no wrong. 75% of our footlocker sales are Happy Campers. It's also the model for our latest creation, Designer Trunks, which are made with the same size and design of the Happy Camper. UnderGradIf your camp offers the available space, then the UnderGrad is a great size trunk for you. This trunk fits a bit more gear than the Happy Camper. The additional packing space provides for a little wiggle-room too which makes living out of the trunk a little more convenient. GraduateIf your camp has no height restrictions, then go as big as you can with the Graduate. For campers who are looking forward to a lengthier camp stay at a camp without laundry service, this is the trunk for you. The Graduate also offers excellent future use at school if college is coming up soon after your summer camp days.
