I use these for sorting when working on an organizing project (home office kitchen bathroom garage workbench hobby supplies etc.) Good for longterm storage of paperwork. Not good when concerned about dampness or heavier items - then use plastic bins. Keep a supply on hand. You'll never know when a good box with built in handles will come in "handy".
Exceptional for household storage of all sorts of objects other than files. An unbeatable price compared to plastic or wicker and therefore a helpful segue between initial organization efforts and a more aesthetic solution. Ease of labeling ease of access and ease of stacking make these a beautiful choice for all sorts of clutter defying endeavors.
We use the boxes to store files. We also use them to hold yard sale items. We have two yard sales a year. We fill a box and stack and store them in the garage. They look neat and tidy are easily accessible yard sale day and not too heavy to lift even if filled with books. The precut handles (holes in sides of boxes)also make them easy to carry. We use them for just about anything around the house and have purchased many.
