Hi all

I think I may be shamelessly posting on AIBU but any tips for what to store baby clothes in? I have to store them in the attic and not sure what is the best way. Would it be heavy duty plastic boxes? Any advice appreciated.

It is all of my under one baby clothes and we don’t plan on using them again for a few years yet!

Vacuum pack them?

Make sure they are all totally dry first, then I put ours in vacuum bags and sucked the air out, then also put them in plastic boxes in case of mice or moths. They were stored in attic for 4 years and were perfect condition when we got them back out

Vacuum pack.

Yup vacuum pack. You can get cheap ones from pound land or pound savers, the odd one might rip but they’re pretty good.

I vacuum pack too.

I always just put mine in bin bags , they've always been fine, so long as they're clean and dry.

I bought large zip up laundry bags from ebay and they were fine for 3 years until the youngest was born.

I’ve got some big zip up storage bags from IKEA.

Ikea vacuum packs in Ikea plastic storage boxes.

I am sure other brands are just as good

Plastic tubs with tight lids.
