I use a custome made Twist-em-Up bag that I have set on top of a rolling carry on suitcase. It allows me to roll around when necessary. I have my Majloon pump hanging from the back. It allows me to place extra batteries and pump inside. I need to add a custom cover.

For me, simple canvas type tool bag from Home Depot does the trick. Lots and lots of pockets and cost me aobut $20.00.
The magic is not in our sleights and illusions, but instead in our ability to bring love and joy.

Just trying to be helpful here, you can take it however you like...
I would suggest you look at your bag and see if it reflects your trade. Are you a handy-man or a balloon artist? I know of someone who uses a briefcase and balloon bags. Does this reflect a professional balloon artist? It is better than having his pockets stuffed with balloon bags, but not much. The better you and your equipment look the better impression you make and the more bookings you are likely to get.
Regards,

I've tried about all. The one posted above looks great, but IT'S BLACK! Try carrying that around outdoors in the sun at an event or festival. It's like putting your balloons in a solar oven to slowly roast. Somebody will invariably suggest reusable freezer packs, but here in the South where the humidity is almost always 85%+, your stuff would be soaked with condensation.

I have a pale multicolored bag from Flower Clown to carry A LOT of balloons and to twist out of, a tie-dyed apron from (now defunct) Balloon Buddies in Baton Rouge. I think I got the last one they made. It was plain duck canvas, I did the tie dye job myself. I tried a Twist-Em-Up apron and hated the little bundles constantly needing to be tediously replaced in the EZ load thing. Also tried a double busking bag from Twist-Em-Up, and didn't like the roll up things. I prefer pockets that you can neatly pack, or just stuff in a hurry. I think my apron has over 50 pockets and a bag that hangs on the side of the belt. I usually keep another 5-pocket apron (from T. Myers) tied around back for essentials, too.
