We have a storage problem at my school and my principal gave me permission to buy some storage containers (15). I can't find anything that will work!

The above is great, and available at my local Target, except it is a little too tall.

I checked out The Container Store online, but it is too expensive, especially with shipping factored into the price.

Any sources you can send my way??

PS We are storing reading books that we all share. Typically a teacher keeps their boxes of books right near their door so ppl can just pop and and get what they need. The boxes are overflowing and beat up.

Do they have to be clear? And do they have to have wheels?

Check these:

If all else fails, Ikea! :)

I would call Container Store and see if you can get a discount or free shipping. You never know!

You might check this place, though you could run into the same problem:

You all have given me some great suggestions!! Thank you so much!!

My fave is the one from Ikea, but it is too small. :-( I am going to spend some time tomorrow searching through the other sites.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This board is the best!
