Having just returned to diving after a few years, I found the need to store my gear in a manner that keeps it safe, dry, and away from the critters who may like to use my wetsuit as nesting material. Before I sold my old gear (about 13 years ago) I had this HUGE backpack that held everything except the tank. It was quite cumbersome and highly inefficient and very obvious as to what was inside of it. This time around I needed a safe rolling container that would keep my gear safe and have the added benefit of being less obvious so I went on the hunt. Dive shops had some great offerings ranging in price from $50 to $200 with fancy names scrawled across their sides. Mares makes a solid box ($$) and so does Scubapro ($$$), but none of the boxes I found met the requirement of subtlety I was looking for. Along comes Sterilite to the rescue! Wal-Mart has a rolling Sterilite box with a capacity of 40 Gal. for just over $20. Compared to the Mares at $80 and the Scubapro Porter Gear Bag at $180, this was a steal. The link is below if you are interested.

Remember to dry you gear before you store it - no one likes a funky smelling diver.
