I generally use clear plastic bins to store our out of season clothing here. So definitely agree with you on using them as we most definitely use them here, too 🙂 Janine Huldie recently posted…Easy Heart Pieces Kids Craft Card
As a military family that moves from one climate extreme to another, we save clothes that will fit in 2-3 years in plastic bins that are clearly marked. This helps with storage and for moving. The vacuum bags are another great idea.
I think having the bins clearly labeled is really the key. So often we are busy, and just stash items into containers, and then we lose track of what we’ve got and end up buying new anyway. Another benefit of the bins is that they can be easily stacked if you end up with a few extras. I know they aren’t great for high quality garments, since they don’t breathe, but for short term storage of children’s clothing or “day to day” items, they are great.

Clear is nice because you can easily see what’s inside!
