Nice but they are not storage boxes. For example, you can't stack them on top of each other for storage.

Do you just want 'pack them away' storage?

 

Or do you mean 'day to day access (needs to look okay)' storage?

 

If the former, some of the heavier duty (dozen) wine boxes work well.

I'm sure you meant the 27l version 😉

Still the problem with these is that they aren't cubes, only 27cm tall, so the records stick out the top. So not stackable with records, unless you are a barbarian.

I shipped my records to Europe (shipping container) in 12 of these wine boxes and they did the job. I'm sure they were handled and stacked rougher than I would have done myself for for storage.

I've moved way too many times, and have always just purchased archive boxes to move my collection. You can't use the really good quality ones as the cardboard becomes too thick and the records won't fit.

 

I've used ones like this:

 

https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/marbig-enviro-standard-archive-box-10-pack-ac80125e

 

The boxes aren't high enough to completely cover the records. You can put the lids together and then sit the lid on top if you like. I've had 20-30 of these archive boxes filled with records and had them stacked 3-4 high no issue.

 

When you carry, you can use the handles, you just need to be careful. They do hold the weight and fit approx 80-100 records.

 

If you want to store your records away and completely cover them up properly go for something like this:

 

https://www.bcwsupplies.com/33-rpm-record-album-storage-box

 

https://entrainment.com.au/?product=bcw-storage-box-vinyl-record-33-rpm-pack-of-10

 

Just search up that BCW brand and there are a few different sizes to choose from. They cost more than the archive boxes do but are a proper solution. If you search hard enough there are AUS suppliers.
