So I'm wondering about the location (if space is available) "closet", "garage" or "attic" for the following:
- Luggage with plastic wheels (hard plastic or canvas suitcases)
- Christmas ornaments (wood, glass, plastic)
- Extra knicknacks (glass, wood)
- Papers (e.g. CC statements, old legal docs, tax returns)
I'm also guessing that cardboard boxes for storage are not recommended either? Rubbermaid or plastic file boxes are okay?
Many thanks in advance,

I'm not sure how paper would do in the attic in a plastic container. I would put those in cardboard boxes to allow them to breath. Plastic might hold moisture in. We keep all seasonal decorations up there with no issues. We also added a solar attic fan over the attic space.
