    I work with frozen food boxes and on some of them you can just give few good smacks along the top and half of the tape will just unstick. Then just give a good pull to one of the halfs and you are in.

    To break down the box, just flip it on the side and punch, usually that is enough to get one end of the tape unstuck and you can pull it off.

    No tools needed at all

      That’s exactly the method I was taught. After you do it enough times, you can open a box in seconds without any tools at all.

      The other neat one was packing straps … you find the seam, turn it over, peel off the opposite loose end and the strap snaps free.
