Subject:  Storing loose periodicals

I am looking for some suggestions for storing loose periodicals.

Our library subscribes to 900+ titles, but we bind only about 125 of
those titles.  In the past we were fortunate to have had a good
relationship with the Magafile Company and purchased the wonderful boxes
which they manufactured.  The Magafile Co. is no longer in business and
our supply of boxes is getting low.  What do others use to store loose
periodicals? Ideally, I am looking for something that is open only on
one side, is available in a variety of sizes to accommodate, oversize
and odd size periodicals, different publication patterns, and of course
is affordable.

Thanks for your help!
