My sets (and a whole lot of other stuff) are housed in binders. This pic shows four types of boxes that work pretty well for everything else:

1. Bottom Left - Random shoe boxes...which are always a MUST for any nostalgic card collector. (Who knew I was a ladies size 6??)
2. Upper Left - Michael's sells great (read: cheap) quality photograph boxes, which are fantastic for stacking toploaders and slabs alike. My absolute favorite!!
3. Bottom Right - Two-row corrugated cardboard boxes that are real sturdy and great for holding (and transporting) large batches of slabs.
4. Upper Right (obscured by toploaders) - Your standard corrugated cardboard boxes, 100 count, 500 count, whatever, usually used for holding sets, but there are also ones (shown) wide enough to be filled with slabs.

5. Honorable mention - I still have a few old Pop Tarts boxes filled with random 1970's commons.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
