Quick answer: For a smaller artificial tree, the Primode heavy-duty tree bag (50 x 15 x 20 in) is the simple pick: a low-cost 600D duffel with a full-length zipper and reinforced handles, and one of the most-rated tree bags we found. Get the Primode 9 ft version for a bigger tree, the ZOBER rolling bag if you’d rather wheel it than carry it, the Tiny Tim Totes upright cover to store a tree assembled, or the TreeKeeper 12 ft rolling bag for very large trees.
“Fits a 9 ft tree” on a duffel-style bag refers to a tree taken apart into sections, so the tree height alone doesn’t tell you it will fit. Measure the length, width and depth of your packed sections and compare them with the bag’s dimensions, leaving room for the zipper to close.

How we picked: We compared artificial Christmas tree storage bags from Primode, ZOBER, Elf Stor, BRITECH, HOMEST, Tiny Tim Totes, TreeKeeper, Balsam Hill and others by stated tree size, dimensions, wheels, handles, materials, seller and rating counts, and read The Spruce’s tested roundup (updated January 15, 2026). We checked Amazon US stock and listings for delivery to New York 10001 on October 29, 2026, and searched the CPSC and Health Canada recall lists on October 29, 2026 (we found no matching notice; that does not establish product safety). We did not test these bags ourselves. We left out listings with very few ratings at our check.

How to Size a Tree Bag (Before You Buy)
- Measure the packed sections, not the tree. Check the length, width and depth of your sections (with the branches folded as the tree’s maker directs) against the bag’s dimensions, with room for the zipper to close.
- Fold the branches and measure the width. Full and wide trees with stiff branches may not compress enough for a 15-inch-wide bag. HOMEST’s listing, for example, warns that its bag isn’t for full or wide trees.
- Duffel, rolling or upright? Duffels are cheapest; wheels help if you store the tree far from the living room; upright covers let you store the tree assembled but need floor and ceiling space.
- Extras only if they fit. Add the tree skirt or garland only if there’s room without forcing the zipper; pack fragile decorations separately.
Why it’s worth it: artificial trees tend to be kept for years. In a Nielsen survey fielded in November 2015 for the American Christmas Tree Association, 81% of displayed trees were artificial, 85% of households with an artificial tree were reusing one bought in an earlier year, and artificial trees had an average lifespan of 11 years. A bag that keeps dust off and the sections together is a simple way to look after a tree you’ll keep for years.
1. Primode Heavy-Duty Tree Storage Bag, 50 x 15 x 20 in (7 to 8 ft)
- PRIMODE Durable holiday tree storage bag, Strong tear-proof material Heavy duty polyester construction
- Dimensions: 20″ Height X 15″ Wide X 50″ Long, Large enough to hold a 6 foot disassembled artificial Xmas Tree
- Features a large opening for easy stowing of tree, with Full Length Zipper
Why we picked it: A plain, sturdy duffel at a low price: per the listing, it is heavy-duty 600D Oxford polyester, 50 inches long, 15 wide and 20 high, with a large full-length zipper opening, reinforced handles, a zippered front pocket and a tag window on the side. It had 9,339 ratings at our check, a count Amazon shares with the Primode 9 ft bag, sold by Primode.
Best for: a smaller tree whose packed sections fit within 50 x 15 x 20 inches. Who this is NOT for: full or wide trees with stiff branches, or anyone who wants wheels.
Limitation: the listing is inconsistent: the title says it fits trees up to 7 to 8 ft taken apart, but a bullet says it is large enough for a 6 ft tree. Measure your packed sections against the bag’s 50 x 15 x 20 inch size before you buy.
Packing Tip: Unplug a prelit tree and remove decorations before you take it apart, then follow the tree maker’s instructions for folding the branches and packing the sections.
2. Primode Heavy-Duty Tree Storage Bag, 65 x 20 x 25 in (up to 9 ft)
- PRIMODE Durable holiday tree storage bag, Strong tear-proof material Heavy duty polyester construction
- Dimensions: 25″ Height X 20″ Wide X 65″ Long, Large enough to hold a 9 foot disassembled artificial Xmas Tree
- Features a large opening for easy stowing of tree, with Full Length Zipper
Why we picked it: The same build as the bag above in a larger size: per the listing, 65 inches long, 20 wide and 25 high, 600D Oxford polyester, with a full-length zipper, reinforced handles, a front pocket and a tag window, and large enough for a 9 ft tree taken apart. It shares the 9,339-rating count at our check, sold by Primode.
Best for: larger trees whose packed sections fit within 65 x 20 x 25 inches. Who this is NOT for: anyone who will carry it alone up attic stairs; a 65-inch bag with a big tree inside is heavy and awkward.
Limitation: no wheels. If you store it far from where the tree goes up, consider a rolling bag.
3. ZOBER Rolling Christmas Tree Storage Bag, 48 x 15 x 20 in (7.5 ft)
- TREE FRIENDLY – Our breathable Xmas tree bags feature a zipper closure to provide optimal protection for Christmas trees…
Why we picked it: Wheels can save carrying on level floors: per the listing, it is 600D Oxford fabric, 48 x 15 x 20 inches, with wheels, handles, a zipper closure and a card slot for labeling, and the title says it fits 7.5 ft artificial trees. It had 7,830 ratings at our check, sold by YH-Goods.
Best for: rolling a smaller tree to and from storage on level floors. Who this is NOT for: 9 ft trees; at 48 inches long it is a little shorter than the Primode 7 to 8 ft bag.
Limitation: the title calls it waterproof, while a bullet calls the fabric breathable and protective against moisture. We haven’t verified its water resistance, so keep it off wet floors.

Why we picked it: Two bags in one listing: per the listing, each 48 x 15 x 20 inch bag fits an artificial tree up to 7.5 ft taken apart, or you can split one large tree across both bags. They are woven polypropylene (a tarp-like material) with nylon handles and an ID tag. It had 726 ratings at our check, sold and shipped by Amazon.
Best for: two smaller trees, or a big tree plus its lights and garland, on a budget. Who this is NOT for: anyone who wants a padded or rigid bag; tarp material protects from dust, not knocks.
Limitation: The Spruce’s top pick is a different Elf Stor model (its Premium Rolling Tree Storage Duffel), which it found was not waterproof. We haven’t verified this set’s water resistance; avoid damp storage.

Why we picked it: A well-rated alternative to the Primode 9 ft: per the listing, it is 600D fabric, 65 x 25 x 20 inches, for trees up to 9 ft, with reinforced handles and what the seller calls a robust zipper. It had 2,371 ratings at our check, a count shared with the 7.5 ft size, sold by Britech Inc.
Best for: a 9 ft tree, or garlands, lights and ornaments in the off season. Who this is NOT for: anyone who needs wheels.
Limitation: the title says “waterproof”, but the listing gives no rating or test, and we haven’t verified it.
6. HOMEST Rolling Tree Storage Bag, 50 x 15 x 20 in (4.5 to 7 ft)
- DIMENSION—The bag size is 50*15*20 inches, can hold a 4.5-7 ft Christmas tree. It is NOT compatible with Full/ Wide tree…

Why we picked it: A budget rolling bag for smaller trees: per the listing, it is 50 x 15 x 20 inches for 4.5 to 7 ft trees, with wheels that lift the bag off the floor and widened double handles. Usefully, the listing warns that it is not compatible with full or wide trees and asks you to measure your tree first. It had 1,488 ratings at our check, sold by HOMEST Direct.
Best for: slim or small trees, apartments and first trees. Who this is NOT for: full or wide trees, or anything over 7 ft.
Limitation: the listing describes the fabric only as nylon or similar, with no denier rating.
7. Tiny Tim Totes Upright Christmas Tree Storage Bag, for 6 to 9 ft Trees
- CHRISTMAS TREE STORAGE – Providing full coverage for standard artificial trees from 6 to 9-feet tall when assembled, thi…
- HEAVY-DUTY MATERIALS – The thick fabric on the tree storage bag is lined with PVC to protect your artificial tree from d…
- STURDY CONSTRUCTION – The convenient full-length zipper makes the Christmas tree bag easy to drape and remove, while the…
Why we picked it: If you’d rather not take the tree apart (or it is already decorated), an upright cover slips over the assembled tree. Per the listing, this one fits assembled trees from 6 to 9 ft, is canvas lined with PVC, has a full-length zipper, wrap-around buckle straps and a bottom cinch cord, and measures 100 x 45 inches laid flat. It had 1,563 ratings at our check, sold and shipped by Amazon. The Spruce named a Tiny Tim Totes upright model for smaller trees its best upright pick for small trees; that doesn’t prove how this larger listing performs.
Best for: storing a tree whole in a garage corner or basement with floor and ceiling space. Who this is NOT for: closets, attics with low ceilings, or anyone who needs to move the tree up stairs.
Limitation: it has no wheels or frame, so you need a stand that can be moved, or the room to leave the tree where it is.
8. TreeKeeper Rolling Tree Storage Bag, up to 12 ft
- Durable Red Canvas | Wipe-Clean Polyester Fabric
- [🎄 TREES SIZES] – Fits most fake trees up to 12 ft. tall (disassembled) in this artificial Christmas tree bag made from …
- [STORE IN ANY DIRECTION] – The xmas tree storage bag can be stored vertically or horizontally to fit the needs of your s…
Why we picked it: Big trees need more than a duffel: per the listing, this TreeKeeper bag fits most artificial trees up to 12 ft taken apart, has an expandable top, a steel frame that works like a dolly, ball-bearing wheels with metal casters, and inner compression straps to cinch the sections tight. It can be stored standing up or lying down, about 22 x 22 x 72 inches, and is wipe-clean polyester. It had 475 ratings at our check, sold by Christmas World.
Best for: 10 to 12 ft trees and heavy prelit trees. Who this is NOT for: a standard 7.5 ft tree; it is overkill and the priciest pick at our check.
Limitation: at about 6 ft tall when stored upright, check your storage space and doorways first.
Where to Store Your Tree
- Cool and dry beats hot and damp. University of Delaware art conservators advise storing holiday decorations in a cool, dry, climate-controlled space and avoiding attics and basements when you can, because humidity and temperature swings can cause damage. A garage or attic is often the only room for a tree bag, so at least keep it off the floor and away from water heaters and leaks.
- Retire the cardboard box. Texas A&M’s school pest-management program warns that cardboard can harbor roaches, silverfish, mice and mold, and recommends durable plastic containers for long-term storage. Fabric bags aren’t pest-proof or crush-proof either, so store the bag off the floor in a dry spot.
- Check the lights. The US Fire Administration says to inspect holiday lights each year before you put them up and throw away strands with frayed or pinched wires. Checking a prelit tree’s wiring when you pack it away is our suggestion.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size bag do I need for a 7.5 ft Christmas tree?
It depends on how your tree comes apart, not just its height. Measure the length, width and depth of the packed sections and compare them with the bag’s dimensions, leaving room to close the zipper. Ask the seller if you’re unsure.
What is the best Christmas tree storage bag?
For a smaller tree, our pick (based on listings, not our own tests) is the Primode 50 x 15 x 20 inch bag, with the Primode 9 ft for larger trees, the ZOBER rolling bag if you want wheels, and the Tiny Tim Totes upright cover to store a tree assembled.
Are Christmas tree storage bags waterproof?
Don’t assume so, whatever the title says. The Spruce found its top-pick tree bag was not waterproof, and we haven’t verified the bags here. Keep the bag off concrete floors and away from leaks.
Can I store an artificial tree upright?
Yes, with an upright cover such as the Tiny Tim Totes bag for assembled 6 to 9 ft trees, if you have the floor and ceiling space. It saves taking the tree apart, though the branches may still need reshaping.
Where should I store an artificial Christmas tree?
Somewhere cool, dry and off the floor if you can, such as an interior closet. University of Delaware conservators recommend avoiding attics and basements where possible, because of humidity and temperature swings.
The Bottom Line
For smaller trees, the Primode 50-inch bag is the low-cost pick; get the Primode 9 ft or BRITECH 9 ft for bigger trees, the ZOBER or HOMEST rolling bag to save lifting, the Tiny Tim Totes cover to store it assembled, or the TreeKeeper 12 ft for very large trees. Measure your packed sections first, and store the bag somewhere dry and off the floor.
