Where do you keep your boxes and papers?

I suppose nobody wears their boxes and papers
So where do you store them? In the vault at the bank? In a safe?

I currently have all my boxes and papers in a box behind the closet. Currently looking for a safe though. Unfortunately they are so damn heavy and don't have so much space... (probably a good thing )

Cheers

Boxes on a shelf in my closet. Papers in a fireproof box. Watches in a winder on my desk.
So if you can find my address, you know exactly where everything is.
But lets see if you can find the HK USP, the Kimber or the DPMS M4 before I do!

In the Library, with the rope. Colonel Mustard watches it for me.

Just kidding...I keep the papers and box together in a dresser drawer.

Keep the boxes in a closet, the papers in a safety deposit box and the watches in a safe.

if you don't have a safe

then it's wise to keep the boxes and the papers separately. I have all mine stored in the 2000lbs safe that I purchased from the Good Guys when they went bellied up.
