As mentioned previously, a "Dry Sack".
I use the Aldi ones, 25 litre and 44 litre. Once my sleeping bag is in it, just squeeze as much air out of it as you can, then kneel on it to compact it down more, roll the top down and fasten it. It does not matter if the Dry Bag is too big, it will still compress down to a small size. I use one for my spare clothes and one for my sleeping bag and they keep things 100% dry.
I find I can compact my sleeping bag down to a smaller size than using its proper compression sack in a Dry Bag.
I have a Wychwood bag which is identical to the Trakker NXG sleeping bag carryall but, they are not a compression bag and they are very bulky when packed. I could get my sleeping bag in it along with all my spare clothes., but without doubt, the Dry Bag is far better. My two Dry Bags when packed and compressed take up far less space than the carryall.
Aldi only sell Dry Bags during the Summer months but any camping shop like Go Outdoors sell them all round the year
