Drinking a 'Draught of Strength' or any other type of fortify carry weight potion and fast travelling before it wears off is a viable option, as it temporarily increases the carry weight capacity.Care should be taken not to fling it into water. If the Dragonborn lacks a reanimation ability, a corpse can be filled and then flung ahead by holding activate to lift it, then dual-casting Lightning Bolt.If the time it took is enough for the spell to run its course, the corpse will die again upon reaching the destination, and the Dragonborn can loot the body for all the equipment they gave it initially. The Dragonborn can then fast travel to any destination and the corpse follows. You can dump unlimited amount of heavy equipment into a corpse and reanimate it using a Spell, Staff or power, such as the Resurrection power gained by using The Ritual Stone.Depositing items in a small dead body, such as a Skeever, can be particularly useful, as it can hold any number of items.Drop a heavy item to remove over-encumbrance, and hold the Activate key to drag it while you move (be cautious when loading a save, as this will move the item back to where you've dropped it).

Arvak DG is especially handy for this, as he can be summoned when you need him, then released when you don't. You can also fast travel after mounting a horse. Horses will take you where you want to go regardless of over-encumbrance. Transforming into a Vampire Lord DG will also allow you to avoid being over-encumbered and travel faster.Werewolves using their beast form have their carry weight limit increased by 2000 points. Clothing such as the zero-weight shoes are particularly useful for this. You can carry gloves, boots, and/or pieces of jewelry enchanted with Fortify Carry Weight, and equip them when you exceed your limit in order to fast travel. You can drink a Potion of Strength (or a better quality version), and fast travel before it wears off, provided the weight you are carrying does not exceed your increased carrying capacity. You can also walk at a slightly faster pace if you have a bow fully drawn while moving forward.The Whirlwind Sprint shout can also aid moving forward, especially if you unsheathe a weapon during the sprint, which causes you to run a vast distance at incredible speed. You can walk at a faster pace while over-encumbered if you repeatedly do forward power attacks and sheathe right before the stamina drain, ideally with a dagger. The spell effect provided by the Steed Stone also adds 100 points to your total, as well as completely negating the weight of any equipped armor.Carry Weight can be increased by 100 through the Extra Pockets perk in the Pickpocket tree.Choosing to increase Stamina when leveling up increases your maximum Carry Weight by five points.You may inspect current carry weight in the bottom right of Inventory menu.
