Abstract: The disclosure provides systems and methods of use pertaining to the storage, organization, and transport of portable items typically carried within a bag, backpack, suitcase or other luggage item, or that are typically transported by an individual person. The system includes a number of storage and structure containers, each designed to enclose one or more portable items. The storage and structure containers may be loaded upon a loadable baseplate along with individual portable items and functionality components and, in turn, either inserted into an existing bag for transport or attached to a wearable frame having a shoulder harness and a wearable baseplate to function as a standalone system. The loadable baseplate may include many additional features, including light and/or sound-emitting components, location-tracking components, and/or other powered or passive functionality. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
