The method of packaging sheet material, comprising the steps of: providing a flexible plastic bag having a closed end and an open end, providing a flexible sheet member comprised of a foam material, providing a flexible first sleeve means having open ends, said first sleeve means having a diameter less than the diameter of said bag, folding the sheet member to form a roll, placing the roll into the bag, at least partially removing the air from the bag and the roll of material to compress the material thereby reducing the diameter thereof and the diameter of the bag, positioning an elongated handle means comprised of the same foam material as the flexible sheet member, relative to the bag so that the ends of the handle means are adjacent the sides of the bag adjacent the closed end thereof, placing the sleeve means around the bag so that the ends of the handle means are positioned between the bag and the sleeve means, permitting air to re-enter the interior of the bag so that the material will expand until restrained by the sleeve means with the ends of the handle means being held between the sleeve means and bag solely by frictional engagement therebetween.
