Whilst not exactly a storage container, stacking your Lego bricks is a good way to store them whilst keeping them organized in a large container.
#Lego storage box with compartments portable#
I’ve been using this ever since I read it as it makes the Legos portable between rooms too. “Dump them on a blanket so they can see better when they are picking pieces to build with, and yet can easily be folded up to dump the Legos back into their container.” If you do plan on keeping your ‘big box’ of Lego, Joyful Homemaking has a great tip for ‘contained’ play and easy scooping up: See through versions are best but you could label them otherwise. They measure 11″ x 14″ x 16″ and can also be bought individually.įor a non-Lego style option, which brings the price down a bit, this set of 6, 18qt standard boxes from Sterilite are a good buy at around $48 ( check current price).Ĭheck out what plastic tubs you already own to save money. For around $42 ( check current price), you get four boxes in pretty colors. Or how about this set of 4, 21qt plastic boxes from Iris. For both of these you can purchase a sorting tray which will hold special pieces separately on top.
Some Lego collections even come in plastic bins so you may not find the need to move them at all.Īlternatively has some nice storage bins – a shallow bin with lid for $9 or a deeper bin with lid for $18. However, for some, large boxes will be fine. And lastly, with the more recent additions to our collection of ‘sets’ rather than random blocks, we need some way to keep them separate. Another is that it is hard to find anything in it without tipping it all out. One problem is that it is quite heavy to carry up and down the stairs as my son likes to build in the family room. Our main random brick collection is housed in a large plastic storage box. how portable the collection needs to be andĪfter reading this hopefully you will at least have some ideas about what may work for you.what type they are (sets or random blocks),.Which solution will work best for you will depend on: I hope they help! Please also add your own ideas in the comments below. If your collection is out of control, your Legos are seemingly multiplying on their own, you have a Lego fan whose collection needs to be kept safe from a younger child or you just have a Lego storage dilemma, check out the ideas below and take back control. Having spent days trawling the internet for what other people do I give you below my findings. Aagh.Īs such, Lego storage containers and ideas are on my mind.
The trouble is my son has left me in doubt that he wants the Ninjago Fire Temple for Christmas, so our collection is about to grow by 1174 pieces. Photo credit: know mine is in various places around the house – broken down into a big bin, in various boxes with bits of sets, as various completed displays and as various half completed ‘things’. Perhaps a better question would be, where haven’t you FOUND Lego? Under foot, in the vaccum cleaner, down the side of the couch, in the washing machine, in the car, in your purse, in your shoes, even in the oven? Where IS your Lego? Completely out of control taking over your entire house or neatly stored and organized in your kids room?
