Christmas Tree Storage - What to Choose
There are a few different ways you can store your Christmas tree between holiday seasons. There is the box it came in, plastic bags, canvas bags, and bags made of polyethylene, polypropylene and a host of other polys.

The key consideration involved in storing your Christmas tree properly is where will you be storing it? Under your bed or the back of the coat closet is different than the garage, storage shed or basement.
You want to keep your tree clean, dry and bug free. After all, artificial trees are not cheap! The cardboard box the tree came in is fine if you are keeping the tree inside and the box is in good shape.
If that's not the case, you need to invest in a storage bag. Is the storage spot dry? Then a good canvas bag might be perfect. Is there a possibility of moisture? Then consider plastic.
Make sure what ever you choose, the Christmas tree storage bag has handles for easy carrying, and is the right size for the tree. A zipper closure is probably better than snaps for protecting the tree. And make sure that it is sturdy enough to handle the weight of the tree. Happy storing!

Your Christmas Tree - Bag It or Box It?
You're ready to take the Christmas tree down. Nobody likes putting the Christmas tree away, but if you do it properly, when you get it out next year, it'll be as fresh as the day you bought it. Do you store it in a box, maybe the box it came in, or do you get a Christmas tree storage bag?
Rubbermaid 3P2600 Tree and Lawn Ornament Keeper
If you can't get the box to close all the way, or it is ripped or damaged, it might be a better bet to invest in a sturdy Christmas tree storage bag. Because it's a bag, it has some give, so if you don't put the tree back in exactly the way it came out, it won't matter so much.
Also, the bag will zip up tight and most likely be made from a somewhat waterproof material. This protects it from moisture, bugs and dirt. However you choose, make sure to keep your tree clean and dry for next year.

More Christmas Storage Options
You've got a plan for properly storing your artificial Christmas tree. What about all the other decorations? The strings of lights and ornaments galore. How about that tree topper and the inflatable snow globe in the yard?
Snapware 60621 Snap-N-Stack 3-Layer Ornament Box with Dividers
Make sure to carefully wrap your strings of lights - don't just ball them up. Place ornaments in the cardboard boxes they came from the store in, but then stack them in plastic bins for sturdy protection.
Even precious breakables like your nativity set can be carefully stored in a plastic bin all it's own. Use tissue or foam peanuts for padding and the heavy plastic box will serve as protection.
When you've finished packing all your holiday decorations, label the boxes and stack them neatly in the attic, basement or garage for next year.

The Christmas tree is a decorated evergreen coniferous tree, real or artificial, and a tradition associated with the celebration of Christmas. The Christmas tree is often brought into a home, but can also be used in the open, and can be decorated with Christmas lights (originally candles), ornaments, garlands and tinsel during the days around Christmas. An angel or star is often placed at the top of the tree, representing the host of angels or the Star of Bethlehem from the Nativity.
