    Stackable file crates.

    Trying to make the switch from cardboard boxes from Staples that my cat scratches the shit out of. Trying to see what's out there really. I've looked around online but from my limited search they all seem to be roughly $10~, going as low as $7 and up to $20 in some cases. Problem is, I need roughly 150-200 of these. 95% letter size, 5% legal size.

    Anyone know of a website or store that offers discounts for buying these in bulk? Or have some other solution for organizing a shit load of files? File cabinets are used for active files, these crates are for more of the ones that can't be disposed of yet.

    Examples:
    The handles on this looks useful, but pricey.

    These look great, but again still a bit too pricey with how many I need.

    Honestly, try going into a Staples/Office Depo and asking for a manager. Say how many you need, see if they can't give you a special order discount for such a volume.

    So for the milk crates, any place to buy them in bulk for cheap? It's something to consider, I guess lol

    Step 1 : Go to a supermarket
    Step 2: Go to the back of the Supermarket building
    Step 3: ????
    Step 4: Profit

    Honest though, when I worked at a Commissary on Camp Pendleton we would just leave the milk crates empty out in the back, and anyone could
    come "take" them
