Wood Holders?

I've got storage areas in the stone alcove that the stove sits in. However, I still have 2 large brass tubs that I used for holding wood in my house back east. I now use them for kindling. If you have a local flea market, you might check it out and get a good deal. There's a site online that also has some decent prices on tubs (galvanized or copper plated)--The Bucket Outlet.

I use one of those 1000# capacity outdoor wagons. I roll it to the screen porch where I keep my wood for the winter, fill it up, roll it back in and I am good to go for about 4 days. If we are expecting company that won't appreciate the look of a wagon in the wood stove room then I just wheel it out. No carrying, no dragging in crap that will fall on the floor. It works great. This year I have 2 wagons going because of the "30" install. I got the new one at HD for $56. Works great for me

I am currently working on a firewood box. Steel frame with cedar sides, and an indian cutout for decoration.
I will post a picture when finished.

I'm not as lucky to roll the wood in to my first floor since I would have to go up a few steps first to my deck then through the kitchen (the wifes not about to let that happen through her new kitchen with a cork floor ). I use a heavy duty wheel barrel loaded up at the wood pile then roll it in to my basement. From there I load up my canvas wood carrier and bring it up the basement steps to load up the metal wood rack next to the stove. Usually the metal rack holds two days worth and the wheel barrel holds almost a weeks worth. My plan is to make a larger metal wood rack near the stove so I can hold one weeks worth in the rack and still have one weeks worth in the basement wheel barrel.

We have an old copper container my wife's grandparents used as a childs tub. Oval shape. It hold as few splits plus some kindling and stuff. Looks pretty good next to the stove. I also have one of those garden carts piled with wood sitting in the garage. I'm trying hard to keep the area around the stove cleaner this year.

Since our weather is still pretty mild- 50s to 60s days and 40s to 50s nights with a few 30s in there- we use a large plastic bin that holds about 5-6 splits and keeps the bugs in there. But after the weather turns cold, we stack up about a weeks worth on our porch and inside we fill up a large black iron ring (holds about 3-4 days worth) that we bought from Lowes at the end of last winter for $10. (Right now I see they are about $30. there.) The ring is sitting by a large window where the sun is shining down on it all day which helps to dry the wood even more.

I have 2 things. One is a iron rack about 16" wide and 3 1/2 feet tall and holds the tools on the side. The other is an old cedar trunk about 4'x 20". I carry the wood in from my garage in a canvas bag. About 10 bags fills both rack and box and lasts me about 4 days.

A 25 gallon pickling crock (say yes to thermal mass).

Rubbermaid tote. It was a temporary solution 4 years ago.
It holds the mess I bring it out to dump the leaves,dirt etc once a week or so.
I fill it to 150% capacity once a day. And if it breaks I'm out what 10 bucks?
