in Cigar 101
I have a bunch of boxes but then 5 cedar trays for a lot of my singles. Lately I am running out of space and I feel the trays are wasting space however I don't really want to toss everything into ziplocks as that just makes going through everything too difficult. Any of you have any other suggestions to look into?

When things get tight, I use these.
About $20 @ walmort. 28 quarts. (Will probably, very neatly, accept all five of your cedar trays.)
If things get tight again. Repeat.
Then, if your C.A.S. proplem persists, I recommend another one of these.
About $40 @ walmort. 70 quarts.0 -
Yeah I'm in a 70 qt right now. But that other one if it would hold all the cedar trays it would be easy to toss a few bovedas in there and be good. Also make a good Travel Humi!Team O'Donnell FTW!

I too have a cooler with a couple of trays that I use for singles that don't make it into one of my humidors, then the other is just for boxes. Nice and organized."We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give". Winston Churchill.

My trays stacked in there really well in the 28 quart, with a little room to spare. I had enough room left over to slip a slim cigar box on it's end down beside the trays on one side and the same with another slim box on one end. My trays are 12 & 1/2" long x 7 & 1/2" wide x 2" high.avengethis:Yeah I'm in a 70 qt right now.

Probably, Don't recall exactly. It's been a few years. I just now took those measurements myself. some of the online deals offer different dimensions.avengethis:

Yeah those match the dimensions of the ones I have so I will have to go check one of those out. Not sure how I tell my wife I need a 2nd one.Bob Luken:

I bought some custom trays for my first cooler. They are great but it took twelve weeks to get them. I do have a cooler full of plastic bags and it is a mess. I'll be getting some trays from amazon or wherever in the near future.0

I've got something similar to those sterilite containers, but I don't really like it. I have some of these:

Poke some holes in them for ventilation and I think I'll like them better. I used them as temporary tupperdores before and I like the clear sides. NOT too deep and about the perfect size. Can hold a robusto going across the width and anything bigger fits lengthwise.Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.0 -
rsherman24:These things work great.
I have a bunch of those sitting empty in my closet. Used them for poker chips and other silly things. Guess I will re-think throwing them out or giving them to the lids. Thank you.0 -
I went through and organized my boxes and a few boxes where almost empty so I just pulled them out and put the sticks in trays. I made room for my incoming purchases here but I think it is inevitable. I might just need to go with the 120qt and give me the room I need then.Team O'Donnell FTW!
