Dispelling Myths Surrounding Hard-Case Suitcases

Although any suitcase can break under sufficient force, high-quality hard-case suitcases are far more durable than soft-case ones.

Common issues with Hard-Case Suitcases
Although durable, hard-case suitcases can sometimes encounter problems with regular usage. Overfilling is one of the main issues faced; it is very difficult for the case to close and often this puts a great deal of stress on the zip and the suitcase itself. Try to pack only what is needed and do not force the case shut; leaving a bit of room will make closing much easier. If it becomes very difficult, check if there is anything protruding from the suitcase before attempting to zip it, or check out the useful packing advice given by GDT for how to better organize your things inside your case.
The wheels are another area to watch out for when you consider how well a hard-case suitcase travels; they may become blocked by dirt, or in severe cases, they may even snap off when rolling over an obstacle. Check your wheels regularly, and ensure they are free of debris and not overly stressed. When a wheel has broken, GDT customer service will always be able to help you replace them. The surfaces of hard-case suitcases can also be prone to scratching; although they are tough, sliding against surfaces could lead to scrapes. Take care when traveling with a hard-case suitcase or use a protective covering to stop scratches from appearing.
