Parts Bins
Milk Crates
(Legally acquired) milk crates work ok for storing parts. They are cheap, but small parts will fall out of the holes.
Large Parts Bins
This is the easiest to deal with because they take longer to fill. However it is hard to get to the parts at the bottom, the bins become heavy, are harder to put back on shelves, and one mis-placed part turns the entire bin into an "everything" bin if not corrected quickly.
Small Parts Bins
Constantly need re-stocking.
Clear Bins
Clear bins seem like a good idea, but has anyone found one that is made out of a non-breakable plastic?
Pick Rack Systems
Pick rack systems have parts that are organized and are ready for easy, instant selection. Using a pick rack system keeps small parts safely stored. Rugged steel construction of the pick rack systems supports heavy loads. Angled shelves keep small parts in the front of the pick rack systems bins for easy viewing and picking.
