Microfiber storage

I am looing for a nicer way to store my microfibers, since it's starting to become a little large. I was looking at this Wheeled Underbed Storage Box and it seems pretty nice for the price. Any other suggestions? I currently own around 30 mf's and planning to get like 20 more of different kinds.

You can show your storage options as well as it can give ideas.

Thanks!

Joey

Re: Microfiber storage

That seems like an okay storage container. From what I gather, other people also use the sterilite (spelling?) cabinet's where they separate different purpose MF's in different levels.

Me... I just use cardboard storage boxes.

Re: Microfiber storage

Yeah, those are good...a little inconvenient if you have to bring your MF's somewhere (like out to the car). There are tons of plastic storage boxes at Target, W-M, etc., but if you have no place to store your MF's except under your bed, those work great.

Re: Microfiber storage

I just bought a 3 Drawer Tower yesterday for all my gear, however, the only place I can store it is in the garage. I think I may have a problem with bugs/spiders and cobwebs getting into my MF's. Do you guys keep your stuff in your garage? Do you store your MF's in large ziploc bags to keep out the creepy crawlies??

I keep mine inside the house in a walk-in closet.

Re: Microfiber storage

This may sound strange but I use plastic kitty litter tubs. Having a cat and buying kitty litter, means I have these things laying around. They have plastic flip top lids that seal and are designed to stack. I have about 6 dedicated to my detailing stuff (just imaging your washing bucket, but square with a flip top lid.

Re: Microfiber storage

Thanks for the replies, guys! I was looking at the 3-drawer tote, but I thought it might be a little tough to move while out detailing. What's your experience?

Re: Microfiber storage

Mine rolls around quite easily on concrete, however, it may not be so good on blacktop and on hills.

Re: Microfiber storage

After I wash mine, I fold them, package them two to a ziplock bag and stack them in a rubbermade container.

Re: Microfiber storage

I just fold em and put them in an old grocery bag, and then put that inside a cardboard box with a lid.
