I don't trade but my collection is serious. I don't keep Packaging, so no
problems there.
When my brick is sorted, it is in BIG and little Rubbermaid bins, and
simular containers, pluse those boxes with the little drawers for nuts and
bolts and odd and ends.
My biggest problem is getting the time to sort, let alone build or keep up
my collection records. So, since it's just me and my son in the house, it's
ended up all over the place. In the kitchen, dinning room, living room
(permanent display with my mountain and other train rolling stock MOC), in
my "Lego/Computer" room, in the spare room, in my bedroom, on my bed. So,
yes, every nook and cranny practically.

| Where on Earth do you keep your Lego collections? What about you folks who take trading seriously - where do you put it all? Do you have a dedicated room, the loft, the garage, or just stick it in any nook and cranny you can find? Do have your sets (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.general)
