Any recommendations on boxes for long-term music storage?

Depends, what type of music? If it was storing sheet music I would guess that something water tight like a plastic box with a nice seal. If it was CD's in a case I would guess that almost any box would do. For tapes I would again go for a low moisture system like a plastic box. So I guess I answered my own question. Any way I like using a long shallow box that I can store under a bed. Best of luck but remember, music that is stored will often haunt you forcing you to dust it off.

Good Luck

I was wanting to store sheet music, preferrably in an acid-free container/box.
