How do you put packing cubes in a suitcase?

In general, the larger, bulkier cubes are best placed at the bottom of the bag. If your packing cubes are transparent, make sure they're facing upward. That way, you'll have easy access to your stuff and will be able to see exactly what's inside each cube. And that's it!
