Question

How big would a be suitcase that would carry 50 pounds?

Answer 1

Depending on what you're packing, the standard carry-on roller bag can carry 50lbs of clothing (jeans, tshirts, etc..). That type of bag is generally 12 inches deep, and maybe 18 inches wide x 24 inches tall.

Answer 2

Impossible to answer -- if you're packing lead or gold, it would be very small. If you were packing pillows, very large. I have a 3 * 2 * 10" which, packed with normal travel stuff is more than capable of 50 pounds -- as I've discovered with overweight charges.
