Default Toy storage help

With Christmas just around the corner Im in desperate need of some decent storage. The boys will be getting lego and more cars and train things plus more little people things and more more more lol So here is a photo of the toys cupboard, ignoring what is in there... What is some hard to destroy boxes or something I can use to seperate the toys. Plastic gets broken to easy so I would like something strong and big.

I know you said no plastic but Office work have a set of three plastic tubs on sale at the moment for 9.95 for three... I bought seven sets and as they are all the same and will sit nicely in the cupboard I would suggest a look...

You can get the heavier tubs from autobarn or Supercheap autos for industrial use.....

I would not go baskets as the wicker is likely to get damaged...You could even use those metalic drinks tubs you get from bunnings but the only thing is that they are not stackable like plastic tubs.... but they are sturdy and look nice..

Oh and you can also get stackable wire boxes but to use for bigger items as the lego would fall through...

I will have a look at a car shop. Never thought about that, it would be good as they would be stronger. I dont mind about stacking though too much. I will check bunnings out as well. Thanks for the reply!!
