record crate

Album holder box

A record crate is a container for storing vinyl records, typically a wooden or plastic box sized to hold LPs upright.

The term evokes the culture of vinyl collecting and DJing, where crates of records are hauled to gigs or browsed at home.

Crate digging—searching through bins for rare or forgotten albums—is a related practice.
