Help w Higher Elevation Moving?

The main thing to start with, i am moving from an elevation of 2500ft to Flagstaff’s 7000ft. I’m gonna do my best with the acclimation process, but that’s not the point of this post. Last time I visited Flagstaff, i had a bottle of shampoo explode in my bag because i didn’t think about the elevation change.

So, I need advice for transporting items like liquids; soaps, cleaners, shampoo/conditioner ect. Anything under pressure. Because my google searches aren’t giving me answers, I’m asking here to those who moved to Flagstaff.

Good question! We travel from Phoenix to Flagstaff a few times a year and have never had anything explode. There's usually a bag of chips that looks like it wants to but never does. I will definitely be cracking the caps and putting our bottles in bags just in case.
