The special reinforced totes we used (available from internet suppliers like usplastic.com, simplastics.com and others) are a bit stronger than those you'll find at home centers or department stores. The reinforced rims on these containers will support weights of 35 lbs. or more, which is perfect for lightweight storage. And the totes will be easy enough to lift into place while you're standing on a ladder. To be on the safe side, the total weight of all the totes shouldn't exceed 210 lbs., so find a different place to store books and heavy hardware. If you use other types of containers, measure the rims carefully and adjust the bottom flange width to assure full support. Before you order your totes, measure the height above your garage door and find totes that'll work. Pottery Barn Knockoff: Summer Buckets - My Life and Kids.
