Our take on the Hefty Shrink-Pak Starter Kit

The Hefty Shrink-Pak Starter Kit is a hand-pump vacuum storage set for blankets, bedding and off-season clothes. It bundles four bags in three sizes (2 Large, 1 XL Cube, 1 Jumbo) with a manual pump, so no vacuum is needed. Bags seal with a zipper and hold up to about 5 lb each. At $19.99 at eBay as of November 7, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range among the two stores listing it new.
