The road goes on forever, as some old singer once said, and he was right. Or at least it feels like the road never ends when you’re in the midst of an epic road trip. Road trips and stoners were made for each other in a way only true cannabis aficionados understand. Pulling off the road near Fort Hancock, Texas in the middle of the night, sparking up your custom bong and contemplating the Milky Way stretched out above you from horizon to horizon is the stuff of stoner wet dreams. But if you really want to optimize your peak road trip experiences you’ll make sure to take along some or all of the following accessories.

Custom Glass Pipes and Smoking Accessories to Take On Your Next Road Trip

Here are seven herb-related accessories you must take along on your next road trip.

Wholesale Customized Glass Pipes

Okay, they don’t necessarily have to be wholesale, but they should be custom. Why? Why not? If you’re going to do something, do it right. While it may be the stuff of road trip mythology to spark up a bong under the Milky Way in the desert, sometimes you just want a couple of hits to mellow out while you and your buds are stuck in traffic in St. Louis or LA or Miami. Enter the glass pipe. They’re affordable, discreet and durable and they’ll enable you to top up your buzz in a simple, effective way.

A Travel Bong

We didn’t think that bong you’d be lighting up in the middle of the southwestern desert would be the same one that normally sits on your coffee table. Oh no. If you’re going to do a road trip right you’ll want a bona-fide travel bong. The travel bong is smaller than your coffee table bong, and in many cases is made out of something more durable than glass. And that’s really important when you’re on the road. You’ll still get world-class rips, but you won’t have to worry about your bong shattering if you drop it while staring up at the sky.

A Grinder

You’ll undermine the efficiency of your travel bong and custom glass pipes if you don’t have a way to break up your dry herb. The grinder is the ideal way to do this. They’re compact, affordable, virtually indestructible, and can be stored just about anywhere. Also, if you're in need of a way to take a modest amount of herb with you when you leave the car to explore, the grinder doubles as a portable storage unit.

A Quality Lighter Or Torch

All that herb you're carrying around in your grinder on Myrtle Beach won't do you much good if you don't have a way to spark it up. For that reason, you will need to make sure you take a quality lighter or torch with you. When we say "quality lighter" most people's minds drift toward the venerable Zippo. And while they may be fine for sparking up joints they're not actually great for bongs. That's because they get really hot and they can negatively affect the taste of your herb. So keep that in mind. If your tastes run more toward concentrates you’ll need a compact but dependable torch. You can get one in our online wholesale head shop.

Travel Dab Rig

Speaking of concentrates. If you’re a connoisseur of concentrates you will need to make sure you have a way to enjoy them. Most standard dab rigs are a little too big to take along on the road with you. Fortunately, there are plenty of travel-size dab rigs available that fit in the palm of your hand and can be easily concealed both in the car and when you’re out and about. You’ll find a nice variety at our wholesale smoke shop.

The Stash Container

While weed is now legal or decriminalized in a majority of states there are still plenty of parts of the US living in the past. So when planning your epic road trip make sure you plan ahead for how you’ll navigate these places without attracting unwanted attention from local authority types. One of the biggest giveaways that you’re holding is the smell emanating from your dry herb. The easiest and most effective way to corral that smell is to make sure you bring along some type of airtight storage container that will effectively trap the odor. A ball jar or mason jar should work fine. They’re cheap, effective and very durable and could wind up saving you a lot of hassle.

An Ash Catcher

The ash catcher might seem like something of a luxury but you’ll be glad you brought it along on your road trip when you’re pulling those nice cool, clean hits off the bong. The ash catcher provides an extra level of filtration that really takes the remaining edges off the smoke. They provide the added benefit of preventing ash from winding up in the water chamber, which will make your bong easier to clean. And the less time you have to spend cleaning your bong while you’re on the road the better.

Conclusion

Accessories enable you to make the most of your road trip by providing you the flexibility to enjoy your cannabis products in whatever seems like the most appropriate and convenient way at the time.
