have been using Staples basic storage boxes for years with good sucess! great for indoor use; storage of decor items; files & paper work; irems not used too often; plus others. if you're in a humid or damp area they may not be as good in small sheds. use mine in cellar mainly. we have dampness on LI so i use a dehumidifier. boxes have stayed intact and dry for years. thank you lenny k
For the price they are great . they are cheap. so if you aren't careful you can rip them. if you drop them when full they will probably break. But seriously what are you using them for ? To store stuff that you probably have on the computer is available on the internet that you will never look at again . So they will probably do the job. and if they rip just tape them up with packing tape
Boxes tear when you try to separate the lids from them. The perforations were not lined up correctly that is the reason. But a positive note the boxes hold what I need them to.
