I have began to contact manufacturing plants around the area to try and locate some totes. I have been keeping the dimensions general, with a specific trigger of a dimension of about 1'x1'x1 1/2'.
I also had some ideas for "fantastic contraptions" that would allow for the storage totes to be stored over head or on motorized spindle racks on the wall. It would give more floor space while allowing more storage, but would require a bit of serious engineering to ensure safety and functionality. Just some brainstorming ideas for down the road though.
