See-through lockable plastic tubs may be the go, I use 55 to 70 litre size -- 
you can see what's in them and they each hold a reasonable amount and are easy 
to manage.

You will find the 70 litre better suited to denser fabrics (upholstery and so 
on) which just don't fold down as well as regular and more modern fabrics. The 
larger ones are also good for leather and other items you wish to avoid folding 
too much.

If using tubs, it sounds like you are needing enough to buy direct at a 
wholesale price, stay away from retailers, even the big Home Depot kind of 
place, if you can as they will have mark-ups.

Always buy the same size tubs and the same brand -- different brands have 
different shaped bases and lids which may affect your stacking options

I recall hearing from the dim dark ages of my family that grated mild soap will 
keep out bugs, which may be preferable to napthalene. If you must use 
napthalene, buy flakes, not balls -- more effective spread and better value.

Consider adding moisture-absorbent silica or similar pillows. Buy them from a 
genuine packaging company, not the hardware store, and get advice on whether 
they are right for your use, and dosages,
