Product Description

The file pockets are a handy way to organize and secure large amounts of paperwork. This is perfect to store in a desk drawer, shelf, or on-the-go. The boxes are also perfect for use with storage.
Sides of the accordion style hold up to 400 sheets and expand by 3-1/2". The file pockets require little space, and they only expand when extra storage capacity is required.
A tear resistant material is reinforced at the top of the gusset for extra durability and strength.
Files can be identified easily by color coding. Labeling can be easily done on straight-cut tabs when they are large and visible.
This backpack has 5 letter-sized (11-3/4" W x 9-1/2" H) file pockets with an expandable section of 3-1/2". Each of the five colors is represented by one of each blue, green, red, yellow and red.
This product is SFI Sourcing Certified for sustainable sourcing and contains 10% recycled content.

Questions & Answers

The last picture shows a box with some folders inside. Which folders do you think fit inside? Both of them are the same color I like that it is coordinated inside as well. ?

Tax season is the time of year when I use one of these. I have them. You can write on the outside. I put tabs at the top of the folders, and I put the individual folders inside this big folder. Since I am a landlord, I organize each home inside each of them. I'm pleased with how it works. There are about six folders inside the folder, and within that are papers.

What is the size of the file cabinet that they will fit in?

There is no problem, it fits a regular size file cabinet and the pages are letter size

Is it possible to put file jackets with multiple file folders in them Would it be possible for me to organize my individual folders into folder jackets before grouping them into folder jackets?

We have received several letters of regular correspondence File folders of various sizes will fit into these pockets, depending on how many documents are contained in each one.

Can you tell me if these folders are made in America? Your kind words are greatly appreciated. ?

Although I can't say for sure, I did a Google search for this product and it indicated that it was manufactured in the United States. A search for Smead 73892 was made

Storage and organization are made easy with this box
5/5

My habit of liking everything in its place and being very organized (to a fault) makes me a very organized person. They Smead file pockets I love! ) As I recall, I first encountered them at work many years ago ("redropes", as we called them), however, I can use them equally well You can get them in letter and legal sizes, and there are lots of different expansion options. However, I still have a lot of paperwork, despite my efforts to switch to electronically stored files at home. It is very convenient to keep long files in thick file pockets You can store your term papers here. Here are five things you need to know Packs of assorted colors are particularly useful, since color coding can be done on Over time, the file pocket seams will eventually separate due to excessive use, but a piece of packing tape can usually repair it quickly.

My life is so much better now that I have them! I love them! The papers I collect are the reason for my hoarding
5/5

Every little thing and anything I have is saved. Of course, there is no need to say this It just wasn't good enough to use normal file folders. I was not able to stay organized with a typical-sized file folder, no matter how hard I tried. This has been going on for quite awhile). Two sets were purchased and you can imagine how happy I was when I saw what they can hold after receiving them and seeing their size and capacity. I cannot stress enough just how important it is to have a pocket that prevents papers from falling out when overflowing. These file pockets simplified my life in less than 24 hours and made me feel a little bit more at ease. Having a new baby at home (who is colic) makes life a lot less complicated for me, so anything that simplifies my life is a blessing for me Nowadays, there are a lot of emails sent. There is no doubt that this purchase As much as I would like to stop collecting paper, I hope I won't have to purchase more supplies. At least now I have a way to organize my piles upon piles of physical chaos in an efficient way, even if I cannot do it (which there's a good chance I won't be able to do). In fact, these folders are enabling, and that makes me wonder if they're tools. I love it.

Roaches live in a box that has products in it
3/5

A container that was bought on Amazon was full of "live" roaches that ran inside the house when opened. I would like to know what you think.

There are so many things I love about It makes it easier to organize files by grouping them together since they sit on their own and I don't have to deal with hanging files - I love them
5/5

I wish they came in more sizes and colors, because they don't come in enough colors and they are overpriced for about 4 oz of colored cardboard. I wish they originated in different colors such as yellow for insurance, and red for finance. The file size does not have to be three inches for all files. To buy Smead stock (or whatever it is owned by), I must buy a stock certificate.

The product is ok, but the shipping is a bit uncertain
5/5

A postage-paid envelope was used by USPS to ship this item. To fit it in our mailbox, our mailman shoveled the package into the fence and bent the stakes. Then I straightened them out, although there shouldn't have been any need to do so. There are some differences between these and some older file folders, but I find that they are thick enough to do the job without taking up too much room in the file cabinet. If I had to buy them again, I would. In addition, the top edge of the accordion pleat is 'taped' or reinforced, which is another nice feature.

The hard copies are useful for keeping in your purse! They're colorful, sturdy, and high capacity, just the way I like them
5/5

These books serve as a place to keep recipes, knitting and crochet projects I have downloaded from magazines or cut out of them and haven't yet found or made time to put into I am also keeping other technical or monetary information I have collected that has been useful at the time. This is good if you love to collect information and wish it to be readily available without having to spend more time on It's like holding a book in your hand rather than reading from a.

That's what I like about Even though I was a little hesitant, I ended up ordering these file pockets and am pleased with As a messenger bag, I use them
4/5

I can organize my files and folders according to subject or category groups using the pockets. Since each color represents a different group of files, I can easily differentiate between the groups. The pockets expand to accommodate a variety of files and folders in each category rather than having everything Taking the bag, selecting the color pocket, pulling out the pocket, and there are all of the individual files and folders for that particular subject. The only worry I have Because I have only had them briefly, I don't know how well they are going to hold up when I handle them frequently.
