Get a swag bag, or you could wrap it in a small tarp.

I got a Burke & Wills bag from Anaconda, worth about $50, free with purchase though.  Does the job well.

Cheers guy's ........ I think the old tarp rolled and folded might be the go as I like to keep my sleeping bag and sheets ect in the swag when I roll it up.

Thanks

Have two swags and use a canvas roof bag (4'x3'). Swags have all bedding included. The canvas bag has room for other stuff also.
