Packing tape (sometimes referred to as clear packaging tape) is ideal for securely sealing cardboard boxes when moving or for storage, and its strength and durability help to seal and hold moving boxes together, bind bundles, and more.
When should I use clear packing tape?
When you are packing boxes for moving or storage, clear packing tape is your best bet because of its width, durability, and adhesive strength. Clear packing tape is also useful for other jobs where you need more strength than scotch tape, but less residue and stickiness than duct tape.
What should I consider before using clear packing tape?
The main thing to consider is how much you'll need. Having 2 rolls can be useful if multiple people will be packing, or if there are a lot of boxes. When using clear packing tape on heavy boxes, making an 'H' shape on the top and bottom seams of the box can make it sturdier.
