How can I store my Christmas tree?

I have a 6 1/2 ft tree and very limited storage area. I always have an impossible task of getting the tree back into the box and keeping it from exploding open again. Does anybody have any tricks to store such a beast?

    Hi Kauai. Push all the branches upwards, place in box, push down, repeat for each section. Use heavy duty packing tape to deal the box. I do this with mine and it holds well.

    I made a "bag" out of a sheet. I first collapse all the branches toward the trunk, then put it in the bag. (Much easier than trying to get it into a box). I then take a long piece of cord and wrap it around the tree tightly ending at the open end and tying it closed.
