Bankers Box 12-Pack R-Kive Heavy Duty File Storage Boxes with Lids, FastFold Assembly, Letter/Legal, (00724)

Does what I need it to do—assemble easily, hold stuff, stack. Not sure how it would hold up to humid conditions, water spills, or if I wanted to disassemble again, but I have enough junk to store in the closet that I don’t think I’ll disassemble anytime soon. Since it’s cardboard, my guess is that it won’t be able to take much accidental water before it loses rigidity. Bought these to hold my loose possessions, gadgets, and toiletries since I move apartments almost every year so it would be nice to keep some things permanently in a box that can be ‘closed’ and moved again easily.

I've been inventoriing my stuff in my house, and some of my stuff is extraordinary stuff. Hard to find stuff. Stuff I really care about, so I usually don't bother with weak kneed boxes you can't pack full and stack at least five high. Other boxes are cheaply made with obvious cuts in strength or corner integrity. Not these. I have some that are practically heirlooms because of how sturdy they are. I found that if I make lists of what's in the boxes and number them, I can then use my phone to photograph the numbered lists, which makes it 500% easier to find that one thing I put away last month. These boxes are key to the continual review of what I'm keeping vs what needs to find new homes.

I am moving at the end of the month, and I needed some solid, stackable, boxes to store 3 file cabinets worth of records. These boxes are perect! It literally took me 20-30 seconds to put each box together, and another 20-30 seconds to put each lid together. Once assembled, I packed them to capacity with folders and files, and then stacked them 3 high (I could have actually stacked them 4 or 5 high, but I have the space, so I figured I wouldn't push it). At the end of the day, these weren't that much more expensive than regular old packing boxes you can get at Home Depot or Lowe's, and they are much more suitable for storage of files and folders. They are shaped perfectly, so you can store letter size files if you place them in one direction, or legal size files if you place them in the other direction. I did find cheaper Banker's Boxes elesewhere, but.......they were not the max strength kind. They were the "light duty" kind, where stacking is not recommended. Overall, if you need reliable record storage, you will like these boxes. One thing to note....while the boxes fit letter or legal size folders perfectly, you cannot store hanging folders. They are too wide. I was fine with that, because I just threw all the empty hanging folders into a larger packing box. If you want a complete portable storage solution where you can place the hanging folder and the actual folder containing your papers, then you'll need to get one of those plastic file cabinets that can accommodate the hanging folders. I looked at those, but they are smaller, twice as expensive, and not stackable. I might use one of those if I had a few folders I needed to carry around with me on a regular basis, but for moving, or more permanet storage, I think the Banker's Boxes are more suitable.

Strong, workhorse of a box.

easy to assemble

As always these are the only storage boxes I would ever use! They are the best and last in storage.

Great bankers box. Very strong and sturdy. This letter and legal sized documents.

Boxes are great as usual. Dealer was quickly responsive to a small delivery issue. Thank you for everything.

My wife needed these boxes to move a multitude of document she will never look at again. The boxes are built solidly. They did what they needed to do.

Great quality

The quality seems good. However, I received 11 lids for 12 boxes.
