storage crate

Box for keeping

A storage crate is a sturdy container, typically made of wood, plastic, or metal, used for holding and organizing items.

Crates designed for storage tend to be stackable and durable, suitable for warehouses, garages, or moving: We packed the basement stuff into storage crates.

The term often implies something more rugged than a box but less specialized than a bin.
