How long does your Paper Packing Tape for Moving Boxes last? I’m looking for a product that will last for at least 18 months.

–Jenn Lawson 5/8/2023 1:28:48 PM

Hi there. As long they are stored or used in a dry space, you should have no issues with these items. I hope that helps.

–Kristy 5/10/2023 7:38:15 AM

Can you use this tape for taping up packages for shipping/mailing?

–alex 4/21/2023 5:48:10 PM

Hi Alex! This is the only tape I personally use when shipping out a package. I hope that helps.

–Kristy 4/24/2023 11:42:22 AM

How long will it take to receive shipped items

–CAMI JORDAN 12/6/2020 7:46:08 PM

Hello, 3-5 business days not including weekends. Thank you for your question.

–Frank 12/8/2020 7:34:54 AM

I heard shipments to Arizona, where it's 115 degrees F, can melt the adhesive of normal plastic tapes. Will this paper tape hold up better in extreme heat? Or which tape you recommend for that?

–CB 9/8/2020 4:07:24 PM

Hello! This tape won't melt unless it reaches 200 degrees fahrenheit, so you do not need to worry about it melting in the Arizona heat. I hope that is helpful!

–Savannah 10/2/2020 8:23:13 AM

What is the adhesive made of? Is it natural rubber (aka latex reactive?)

–kiernan 10/28/2019 10:02:45 AM

Hello, Kiernan! The adhesive of our box and packaging paper tape is made of solvent cast natural/synthetic rubber. I hope that is helpful!

–Savannah 10/28/2019 1:59:23 PM

Is this the best tape to buy to assemble your standard medium and large moving boxes? The boxes will be shipped long distance by a moving company truck. Thanks.

–Tracy 7/6/2019 3:37:33 PM

Hello, will this tape leave a sticky residue like it you wrap it around metal table legs? I am moving and planning to store some items for 2 - 3 months. Don't want ho have an ugly surprise when I remove the tape.

–Manuela 6/22/2019 3:37:10 PM

Hi, Manuela! We do not recommend placing tape directly onto furniture or hard surfaces. If you need to wrap furniture for storage, we recommend wrapping the item in Packing Paper and placing the tape on the paper rather than directly onto the furniture. Thanks for asking!

–Savannah 6/24/2019 10:20:55 AM

If unused, can this be returned for a refund

Is this paper tape stronger, or the plastic clear moving tape? Is this suitable for boxes?

–Ann 7/19/2017 1:05:42 PM

Hi, Ann! For moving and storing, we recommend the Box / Packaging Paper Tape (55T).

For shipping, we recommend our Shipping / Strapping Tape. I hope that is helpful!

–Savannah 7/19/2017 1:14:57 PM

Is this tape strong enough for moving boxes for heavy items?

–Marcy G 8/1/2015 4:29:12 PM

Yes, it is. You may also want to look at our filament tape, depending on how heavy the item is.

–Joseph 8/31/2015 10:57:16 AM
