    I'm wondering if the excess on the tongue flap might stay put better when it's folded up underneath if you try using some of those tarp clips and bungee it. I bought a 4 pack just before I switched to reefer and didn't get to play with them but the back flap was often a problem for me. It liked to unroll from where I'd hide it no matter the bungees used...

    You can p/u some 8ft 2 by 4 boards you see laying around loading yard and roll the flap at bottom around it and put a 2in strap over it to keep flapping down on both ends?

    Fold it up. Put a piece of dunnage on it and strap the dunnage down. That's what I do

    I've never heard of tarp clips before but I'll look into them!

    A board or timber is the only solution I ever found. But at 1$ ea and 6 would fit in large coffee cup.... vs my 4x4x8' coil rack timber hoisted up there...Worth trying IMO
