Bags, Totes & Briefs

Two Requisitions, One Category

Bags are unusual in this catalog because the public side and the roster side barely overlap. One purchase order buys totes and cinchpacks by the case for a fair table, at a unit price low enough that nobody counts them out. A completely different one buys garment bags for a funeral detail, dry bags for a marine unit, or coolers that survive a twelve hour tour. Same page in the nav, two entirely separate conversations.

Where to Start on Either Side

Buying for the public, start with the cinchpack and the non-woven tote and stop reading: between them they cover almost every event a department runs, and they store flat by the case between dates. Buying for your people, the four that get overlooked are garment bags for dress uniform, dry bags for marine and flood work, utility totes for event setup, and a cooler that fits a patrol vehicle footwell.

Common Questions

Which bag should a department order for a community event?

A non-woven tote or a drawstring cinchpack. Both come in low enough to hand to every family, both hold the rest of your handouts, and both store flat by the case between event dates.

Can our department name and a non-emergency number print on a bag?

Yes. Most totes and packs have a large flat panel that takes an agency name, a patch or seal, and a number. Send artwork and we will proof it before anything runs.

Do you have bags meant for our own staff rather than giveaways?

Yes, and it is an underused part of this category. Garment bags, utility totes, dry bags, duffels and coolers all get ordered by the roster. Call 800.431.3473 and we will pull a short list.
