The Way I Store Those Pesky Boxes (1 Viewer)

[sceic2]

I thought I would show everyone how I solved my box storage problem. I call upon some old friends to help and of course Meg had one idea (put them over there) and Brian had another (refill this NOW).

Finally it dawned on me. Boxes more boxes was the solution to my over abundance of boxes. I will take the little boxes and put them in bigger boxes. Sounds like an insane person’s idea, boxes to save space when you have too many boxes. But it works.

This is a picture of the smallest of the 4 bedrooms in my home. It is no longer a bedroom it is a storage facility.

This is another view of the same room from the opposite side as the first picture.
There are:
Full Boxes
21 - square boxes - 18”x18”x18”
1 – oblong box – 18”x18”x24”
8 – legal sized bank storage boxes – 8”x10”x25” for my K&C Napoleonic Only
or
86 cubic feet of stored smaller boxes, by manufacturer and then by series, example: 3 boxes of K&C WS series.

Partially Full Boxes (is the glass half full or half empty?) There are 28 partially filled boxes 18”x18”x18”. Most are almost full for an additional 95 cubic feet of storage.

This was what the room used to look like...

That's a trip brother- love the story- I store mine in bigger boxes as well, though not quite as tidy as yours so, perhaps we are both a bit off our rockers.

I do something similar though I keep mine in Rubbermaid storage bins so I can keep them in closets, the attic or the garage - watertight and impervious to light.

Exactly how I store mine as well.
