I myself use simple Rubbermaid storage containers.  They come in several
sizes, I use one of the medium sizes.  They are shallow enough to be easy to
look though, they stack well, and the lids are snug but not hard to get on
or off.  The container is also transparent/transluscent so you can hold it
up to see what's on the bottom.  Best of all, they're cheap!

My collection currently requires six of of these, with pieces sorted
according to type.  I also still have a large bucket for bigger bricks.

My minifigs are starting to need a better storage set up. I'm looking
for something which has perhaps 3"x3"x3" compartments, preferably
resizeable (nice if they could be sized smaller). The thick Plano boxes
which I've seen in Walmart aren't quite what I'm looking for (also the
dividers slip out way to easy in Plano boxes). I'd prefer a flat
stackable box, though I've looked at some of those drawer units. Those
units with the flip out trays aren't suitable either (it looks like they
waste way too much space). If anyone has any suggestions, please pass
them on.

I use Sterlite (sp?) containers (very similar to Rubbermaid). I have ten shoebox size containers for various specialty pieces (and use 25th Anniversary tubs for my basic bricks). Like Rubbermaid, Sterlite containers are transparent, they stack well, (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.storage)
