About half my collection has been in storage for more than a year *sob*. The one lesson I learned was to use smaller boxes that can be easily managed, assuming you will be lifting them yourself. Books can really rack up some weight in a hurry. Liquor boxes made for handling the weight of glass and liquid are great and small enough to do the job. Our liquor stores stack their empty boxes on the back loading docks and they almost always get carted off right away by movers. Depending on the type of room and the flooring you may want to stack them on pallets. You can usually get them for free if you look around at any company that does a lot of shipping. Giving them away is better than having to dispose of them. Don't forget to label them, because if you've got a lot and six months from now you really want to find something, you will be tearing your hair out and have books all over the place. Good luck.
