New to Premiere Pro 12.0 (2018): Sequence > Close Gap. This command was added to the Sequence menu just above Go to Gap. It did not appear in Premiere Pro 2017.1.2 or earlier versions. So . . . who says Adobe doesn't listen to the Feature Requests?

Sequence before:

Sequence after choosing Sequence > Close Gap (no need to select all or anything):

Hey, go to Edit - Keyboard shortcuts - type in bottom left search bar ''Close gap'' - click where it says Shortcut and put whatever keyboard key or keys that you want (eg. Ctrl+Alt+G), press ok. Now you can select the whole sequence, press your shortcut and all gaps closed 🙂

The close gap command doesn't work 99.9% of the time - ripple delete is the only way I know how.

The Sequence > Close Gap feature is great! Is it possible to assign a hotkey to do this quickly without needing to navigate to the menu?

Funny, I'm not seeing the option to update to this version of Premiere. Huh.

David: Perhaps this will help you update to the latest version of Premiere Pro: Update apps to the October 2017 release of Adobe Creative Cloud

Hi Stefan, no I'm afraid not. My Creative Cloud Desktop app tells me that my current version of Premiere (2017.1.2 v11.0, Oasis) is up-to-date. Could it be that my OS is too old? I'm running Yosemite.

This would make a truly useful new feature for Adobe to implement.

Yes, it would, and it's been requested many times, but please don't let that stop you from requesting it again. For now, Ann's method is mostly brilliant and works quite well.

Not that I'm aware of, but right-click in gap and "Ripple Delete" is quickest method I know.

Thanks
