Has anyone found any suitable film storage boxes that aren't too big to store 35mm & 120 film in the fridge/freezer?

I'm thinking 200mm x 300mm x75/80mm I'm trying avoid things like ice-cream boxes as there often too much wasted space, I would like the film to be in a single layer if possible.

I've looked at the offerings from the Really Useful Box company and all their boxes seem to be too big, they do some that are suitable for paper (A4 sized) but they take up too much space.
 
My wife has quite a lot of ongoing prescriptions and they used to hand them over in A4 sized ziploc bags which were perfect for an A4 sized "brick" of film. Was a bit of a jigsaw puzzle but if you filled it right, it was very nicely stackable and you could immediately see what was in there.

Then I got booted out of the freezer :(
 
I use decent quality ziplock bags but then I've not got a lot of film in the freezer.
 
Yeah, I’ve got some stock in bags but I want to be able to stack boxes and open them up and be able to ID the film, I like to write what the film is on the lid of the film canisters.
ive got one box which is perfect but that came from a cheap storage box pack that I think I bought at a car boot sale years ago.

Really USELESS Box company then :ROFLMAO:

Tupperware boxes and zip bags is all I’ve ever been able to come up with..... sorry:sorry:

Even sheet film can be a pain trying to obtain containers that will accommodate the film box sizes comfortably without them then taking 50% more space in the fridge/ freezer.
 


Just had a try with the Stack-a-Boxes. The smaller (400ml) ones will hold 4 boxed 35mm films or 5 120. The larger (750ml) ones will hold 2 layers of 35mm (boxed) but I'm not sure how many layers of 120 would fit but I would guess at 3 if I had to. The boxes were on their sides in all cases.
