This tape is plenty sufficient for tapping moving boxes. I use plenty just because it's me. I'll tape a couple of strips per side and sometimes even do an X pattern with the tape. These rolls last quite a while with me doing all that extra taping, too. I recently bought this for a friend who was moving for a couple of reasons. 1) She doesn't drive and couldn't get to a store to look for free boxes or buy tape. Mainly, 2) I've used these products almost every time I've moved and I *know* these U-Haul products are high quality. I was able to get this to her by shipping it. I didn't realize I could do that! I've always had to pay someone to take me to get boxes and such since it's too much to carry on a bus. Next time, I'll ship it to myself!! You won't be disappointed with this tape.
For moving and storage up to 6 months do you recommend this Clearly Moving Tape or the Box/Packaging Paper Tape?
Hello, Michelle! Choosing clear plastic tape or brown paper tape is really a personal preference, but we recommend plastic tape if the boxes are especially heavy. I hope that is helpful!
What is the difference between the plastic packing and mailing tape and the clearly moving tape?
Hi, Kathy! Our Clearly Moving Tape is 2.5 mil thick and our Packaging/Mailing Tape is 1.8 mil thick. I hope that is helpful!
How many rolls do I need for 20 boxes?
Hi, Robin! Although it certainly depends how securely you'd like to tape each box, two rolls of our Clearly Moving Tape should be plenty. Thanks for asking!
Best tape for mattress bag
Hello! The strongest tape we offer that is suitable for sealing a mattress bag is our Shipping and Strapping Tape. Any plastic tape can be used, we just don't recommend brown paper tape. I hope that is helpful!
How do you start the roll? There is a white strip under the tape. Do you cut the tape there to start the roll?
Hi, Tony! The white strip is a tab that indicates the start of the roll. You should not have to cut the tape to start the roll. Thank you for asking!
Is this stronger or the paper tape for boxes?
Hello! We recommend our Box / Packaging Paper Tape for moving and storing, and our Shipping / Strapping Tape for shipping. I hope that is helpful!
Clearly this is moving tap right?
Yes, this is indeed moving tape! It's perfect for preparing boxes for moving, storage, and shipment. Thanks for your question, Mark!
