Protect your artificial tree between seasons with the best Christmas tree storage bags and boxes, sized for 6 ft to 9 ft trees.
Storing your artificial tree properly keeps it looking beautiful season after season. This guide covers the top Christmas tree storage bags available right now, from compact 7.5 ft options to heavy-duty bags built for 12 ft trees.
How to take down, pack and store an artificial Christmas tree so it stays clean, keeps its shape and lasts for many seasons.
A storage bag keeps dust, moisture and pests away from your tree and makes it easier to carry to the attic or garage. Check the bag's rated tree height and its actual dimensions: a 7.5 ft tree in three sections usually needs a bag about 48 to 65 inches long, depending on how tightly the branches fold.
There are two main styles. Duffel-style bags hold the tree sections lying down and are the cheapest. Upright storage bags let you keep the tree assembled, which saves time every year but takes more floor space. Upright bags with wheels are the easiest to move.
Look at the fabric weight and the zipper. Thicker polyester such as 600D resists tearing better than thin nylon, and reinforced handles matter for heavy trees. Store bags somewhere dry: heat and damp are hard on lights and flocking. Add a few cedar blocks to deter pests.
