Decorative hanging file boxes are a great way to keep your files close at hand so you can find the items you need quickly and easily. From commemorative postcards, letters and pictures to important business records, they provide a way to either keep information close at hand or to archive it in an accessible way. Filing boxes come in a variety of sizes and styles, so you shouldn’t have trouble finding one that suits your decor and needs.
Archive and storage boxes
Sturdy cardboard or plastic filing boxes can be labeled on the front or side so contents can be found quickly and easily. They are often stackable, which means they can be stored in a closet or other safe place until the documents are needed or are no longer needed. A word of caution. They should generally not be stacked more than three times, otherwise the weight of the top boxes may cause the bottom boxes to crack and sag. They work best on wire mesh, which allows for easy access.
Immediate access to working files
If you’re a secretary or clerk working in an office that’s often open to the public, you don’t want piles of files on your desk. In fact, most employers prefer to only see the project you are currently working on. A rolling binder with hanging sleeves can help keep the information you need close at hand without cluttering up piles of documents. It can also hold the things that need attention in the near future.
Personal or private submission
There are many things in households that benefit from being archived. These can be pictures, DVDs, letters, invoices and important papers for your home or vehicle. A hanging shelf keeps them organized and ready to use when needed. Below are some examples of filing boxes to suit a variety of decorating options or work needs. Some are good for storage, some are decorative enough to keep things in your living room or kitchen, while others give off that fresh, professional vibe you want for your business.
