Vacuum-sealed bags can be a practical option for compact storage, but choosing the right type is important to protect the doll’s materials. Look for bags that are large enough to accommodate the doll without forcing it into awkward positions. Oversized, wide-mouth bags allow for gradual insertion and reduce stress on joints and limbs during packing.
Material safety is crucial. Choose bags that are BPA-free and designed for long-term storage; some bags are specifically made to minimize chemical exposure and protect against oxygen and moisture. For sex dolls, avoid bags with tight seams or poor seals that can trap moisture, which can lead to mold or material degradation over time. Also, consider bags with clear panels so you can see the contents without opening, reducing handling.
Before sealing, fully dry the doll and consider adding a desiccant packet to absorb residual moisture inside the bag. Place soft padding or a thin, breathable layer between surfaces to prevent indentations on silicone or TPE skin. Do not squeeze the doll into a bag that’s too small; pressure points can damage delicate features.
Storage discipline helps longevity: label bags with the date of storage and contents, store in a cool, dark area, and avoid frequent vacuuming sessions that might introduce micro-tears. If you plan to open and re-pack regularly, use bags designed for easy resealing and gentle handling to extend the doll’s life.
