    i get dressed alot of times at the stand. i'll wear shoes driving but change into boots put on pants and usually carry my jacket along my side and put it on before i go up usually spray alittle scent eliminator before i walk in, and when i climb up and sometimes when im in the tree after awhile.

    Caster i was thinking what if the ground was wet.I never gave it much thought but i will be getting dressed when i arrive at my spot.I either get a bath mat or cut a piece of plywood.Also don't forget to wash your towels you dry off with.You don't wanna smell like tide or what ever detergent you use.

    I never wear them in the vehicle and stand on the lid from my container while I am changing.

    Better too far back, than too far forward.

    Take out one of your vehicle's floor mats to stand on.  Works for me.

    im real strict the first half of the season, i eventually slack and start cutting corners haha but i generally change in the field before i walk to my stand, then put my jacket on once in place. i just use a basic plastic tub, not airtight but i keep it away from any strong foreign odors anyway. Keep my clothes sprayed down and with a fresh earth wafer in there. stand on the lid like musky said. i quit wearin my boots in the truck after i spilled coffee on em last year.
    obviously no air fresheners in the truck and i try to keep it aired out as much as possible.

    when theres apples on the ground by where i park i stomp my boots in one and rub it on me, cant hurt...

    I use a Big Rubbermaid container to transport all attire. You can buy them at walmart. I spray the inside down with Scent-Away. I do not wear my clothing in my vehicle. Every piece of material that I wear, gloves, hat, facemask, jacket, pants, under armour, backpack etc. go into that tote. I keep scent waffers in there with them. I dress, spray with scent away, and hit the woods. Never had the need to spend the $500 on Scent Blocker or Scent Lok scams....I see/shoot just as many deer as any other person regardless of the brand of Camo!

    I started using the space saver bags to store my hunting clothes in, you know they are air tight since they have a one way valve, plus if you are tight on space you can get the bags down pretty tight by just rolling the air out of them.

    im lucky enough to hunt a private farm. i keep my hunting clothes stashed there.... get changed in the barn. always smell like my surrounding when im out in the woods..... one of my good friends (and very successful hunters) does the following every year, from walmart you can get the big plastic clothes bins... he keeps his clothes stored in it packed with golden rod from where he hunts... takes the bin out in his truck, pulls them out and gets changed outside of his truck, hes not big on cover scents, and this always has worked for him...

    i use a cooler to put my clothes and anything else in.  the cooler is air tight and holds a lot of stuff.  just use a rubber mat on the ground.  wear sneakers, under garments, and socks in the truck ( i will wear sweats over briefs when weather is warm and take off sweats outside of truck) and change into boots and pants at the truck and put everything else in a backpack to change on stand.
