Best storage totes or boxes
I did a lot of searching on this, but it seams no one mentions brands except Rubbermaid.
I don't like to spend money twice, so what are the most durable tote brands for storage in basement. I have used the typical wall-mart, or home depot stuff and it cracks after a couple of years or they warp where the lid will not stay on.
Any thoughts would be appreciated

I use rectangular milk crates. Mine are 30 years old and going strong.

Ours are pretty well protected, so quality wasn't a big factor. That being said, I like transparent totes so I can see what's inside without dragging them out.
Happy Glamping.

I measured my compartments first, then went looking for the clear ones. The best selections I found was at K-Mart. Found some that were a perfect fit.

Plano, but they are pricier than your $5 home depot special. I've seen them at Menards, had a nice heavy one that I bolted on the front of my 4-wheeler.
