How to Close a Box without Tape in less than 1 minute

Sometimes we need to quickly close a box and we don’t want to mess around with tape. Tape can be such a pain! If you want to store or transport a box and all you need is to keep the box closed, then this is a really easy, simple way to do it. Goodbye sticky tape, hello convenient Christmas storage!

[@ironiccookies2320]

my school had us put our textbook in boxes without tape and told us to just fold it. I didn't know how so I closed it the regular way and left it half opened

[@jasmineolivine]

Please demonstrate with a square box instead of a rectacular box, I am having trouble doing this at work without mangling one of the flaps 😅

It's literally the same way, same exact steps no matter the shape of the box.

Destroyed my box for this 🏃‍♀️

[@SWAGGER4us]

Thank U

[@JaffreyH]

What if this is done on the bottom of the box ? Is it dangerous? I put a fair amount of tape on both sides

[@smallsimplestuff2791]

I wouldn’t recommend doing this with the bottom flaps- the weight of whatever’s in the box would push it out pretty easy. Tape should hold it just fine though!

[@JaffreyH]

@@smallsimplestuff2791 it has plenty of ok Tape, but are you sure that it should be ok all the way to the us? Will it be rejected?

[@smallsimplestuff2791]

@@JaffreyH If you’re mailing it then I wouldn’t use this fold method on either side. Packing tape would be the best thing to use after closing the box normally. I would ask your local postal service to be sure so that it meets shipping requirements for wherever you’re sending from. Best of luck! I hope everything goes well for you

Jesus thinks you people are fucking retarded for needing this video. He’s right

[@Xamentle]

I feel so incredibly stupid

[@johnanderson3746]

What about the bottom? If no tape it will push through

[@smallsimplestuff2791]

True, it won’t work most of the time because the weight of the item in the box will push it out. So if you only have a little bit of tape and have to choose between the top or the bottom, tape the bottom!

I feel so STUPID
