For example, all of the winter items can be placed in blue bins. The spring items can be placed in greens bins, and so on. 2. Use the Same Bins For All Items The bins should all be the same size so that they can easily stack on top of one another. 3. Take Inventory Each Season 4. Store in a Climate Controlled Environment.
