I use these heavy duty boxes from 'The Really Useful Box Co.' , they are the 21 litre box with the added trays. I like these boxes, they are strong enough to stand on so I can carry them in my car easily, they are translucent enough to let light in - which helps reduce fungus and yellowing, and they aren't air tight - which I think also helps keep fungus at bay, I prefer to have movement of air rather than risk condensation inside a sealed box.
I have also cut the partitions out of some trays to extend the sections to accommodate longer lenses, or I use a single tray in a 21 litre box to hold 135mm length lenses upright. The tray also fit 11 litre boxes to give a single level for 12 lenses.

I get my boxes from Hobbycraft, they usually have a good range in stock.



Thanks for this. I've ordered one of these boxes off with two dividers (one with larger divisions) so that should sort me out.
