I would go with Tom

So i would have to tear apart my models, put them in them bags "ziplocks"
that you call in the US, i'm should be able to find them in the local
supermarket. Put them back into there boxs. Any small or leaky boxs can
going in a larger tough box for protection, ;like my 2x 4558 , they can
easily fit in there back by have the engines not joined by the magnets.


I think this would be a better job. OK, other question?

How long would it take to take apart 200+ sets? so i can take a few days off
work to sort it out, if you want to know what i have, check the website. so
to be updated in a big way

Well, don't do this.

Don't tear apart all your sets and then put them back in their boxes.

A)  The boxes (at least 1997 +) Do NOT keep legos in them very well.  You
open up your carefully moved boxes and discover hundreds of legos out of • the
boxes and floating the bottom.  Then you discover your box 'leaks' legos
real well.   I'm still searching for a Space Port 1x2 Graphic Brick and a
UFO 'fluorescent green' long antennae.

Plus you then have a ton of sets to re-build.  I enjoy building so it • wasn't
a huge deal.   But still...

If I were to do it again, Use Zipl.ock or some type of bags, put them into
the boxes.  On smaller sets that would fit into a zip lock bag, I would • then
put the built set in the bag to catch any pieces that bounce around. • Don't
know what to tell you on a big set.
