Yes actually movies used to come in such sleeves here and the shop keepers used to put them in plastic boxes , also such sleeves were used to cover plastic boxes to prevent them from getting dirty or scratched . There were three sizes 5 , 9 and 12 mm or sleeves for DVDs

I hated this idea when you 1st suggested it but now that I’m out of space and getting heat from the significant other, it’s the greatest idea ever 😂

Back in my DJ days in the early 2000s, many of us in that business put all of our CDs into those slim sleeves allowing us to carry around so much more music. I still had the insert and back art so I always knew the contents. I haven’t really considered doing this for my movies but as space starts to shrink, and it’s shrinking, this is a terrific idea. So consider me trigger free from this video 😂

I'm on the same boat, need to make sacrifices to preserve physical media and this storage solution to save space is a good choice. Thumbs up!

I did this exact thing back in 2010 when I was moving back to the US from abroad... I eventually went back to the cases for a couple of important reasons... I couldn't find specific movies very quickly. Also, resale is almost impossible when you do this. So don't do it unless you don't care about the resale value of your collection. I did start cutting a few of the snapper cases, but it got messy ugly. So, I ended up not doing the rest.

Yeah this is reminding me of the mid 2000s when we all held our CDs and DVDs in those zip up binders, but around 2014 I found it was easier and better to just transfer all my discs back into their original hard cases for storage, packing, resale, and nostalgia. I understand the storage space dilemma, but I don’t want to go through the inevitable “ah I just want to put these all back in the original cases” in a few years again.

I think part of the fun is seeing your collection on the wall. I’m quickly running out of space though so I’m definitely keeping this in mind for the future.

Thank you, Heath for all the help. Especially for those of us new to the collecting market. Great X-Men t-shirt. Being that you are a Jim Steranko fan in case you don't know he created that classic font that has graced the comic since he drew a couple of issues way back in 1966.

I'm also buying those sleeves from Denmark. They really are great! I don't have a lot of space to begin with, and I'm also collecting video games. So I'm displaying the games and putting my movies and music into sleeves. It's a never ending project as I'm also upgrading DVD's to BR/4K when possible. But I'm sure when it's all done, it's gonna be awesome! I've also begun thinking about putting games in sleeves, just because I've been feeling that I don't want any bookcases anymore. But we'll see. The cases of music CD's I have just throwed away, and some I gave away. But movie cases I'm keeping. Just putting them into boxes and storing down in the basement's storeroom.

Love these sleeves. I immediately ordered some after your 1st video. And spread the word to other collectors who also ordered some. I found a little basket that fit 2 rows of sleeves, so that worked out. I'm sure people could find something at Dollar stores, yard sales or whatever

This solution to space limitation issues isn’t for me, but for people who don’t mind it, I’m happy for you. I’m too much of a sucker for keeping things in their original form as they were when brand new. I’m probably OCD in that regard. I’d also fear discs getting cracked or scratched (yeah, I know-care goes a long way, but you don’t know my luck with this kind of thing). I also wonder if ringwear could eventually become an issue. I don’t mind curating my collection, getting rid of/selling duplicates on lesser formats, if need be. And even becoming more selective, only buying what I know I will watch is something I’ve been more conscientious of lately in order to keep my collection from growing too crazily.

I can see a limited use for the sleeves, if you need to store the cases/packaging in a separate space and keep the actual discs somewhere else for easy access (where you presumably have limited space). But for me, yeah, there's no way I'd be throwing anything away - there goes much of the value if you ever need or want to sell some of them - so for me this would just be having to find extra space somewhere else, which would also preferably be somewhere not subject to temperature extremes, especially here in a humid climate.

I converted about 700 of my CDs to sleeves in 2008. I am just about finished putting them back into jewel cases. I was noticing ring impressions on some of my tray cards and booklets. I was also doing my DVD/Blurays but my wife was complaining that it is not easy to browse movies this way. So back into case they went too. We just moved into a larger house a couple of months ago so this helps for space.

Thanks heath you just saved me in my apt from being closed in on my collection this idea saved me a tons of space an now I can grow my collection even more great job man ❤

I'd like to see a hard slim case that holds the art like those sleeves with a spindle. Essentially like CD singles cases so it's rigid, & doesn't scratch the disc like the plastic & paper sleeves do. Yeah I want deep jewel cases, but that suits me & my scratch paranoia more.

I sleeved my old dvd collection after seeing your video and it's great, so much saved space! Going through the dvds I also found a stack of movies I've since upgraded to het rid off, so I finally have some space again

I’ve been putting my movies in sleeves for years now using the T3L sleeves. I was gonna do a video on it but you beat me to it! Damn you! I’ll still have to do one and show how I store the sleeves.

I live in a studio so I've very limited space. My VHS collection is in the closet but my discs are outside. I use those 336 discs carrying cases for most of my collection especially DVDs. Most of the boxed sets get to stay intact. I give away the cases, put the sleeves apart in a box and the discs in the carrying cases. This has freed up a lot of space. Your method looks great too and you keep the sleeves out to see. Good project and cool video Heath!👉😃👈

This video was the start of my collection. I wanted to start collecting again but diddnt want the bulk. I started 6 months ago from not 1 bluray to close to 900 now and i can fit them all in about 2 shelfs... love them and thanks for this great idea that started my collection.

If you are keeping all the cases and storing them like in a garage or something, then maybe print the covers for the snapper cases to put in the sleeves, and box up the actual cases

Great update, & great partnership! A smart company taking advantage of the relationship in a positive way, & we all benefit.

This hack has been a lifesaver for sure. I started with CDs and DVDs (and the kids' Blu-rays), and I'm definitely going to start on my Blu-rays as soon as the sleeves are back in stock. It helps that the majority of my Blu-rays don't have slipcovers, whereas my UHD collection generally does.

I recently began the daunting task of sleeving all 2,000 of my DVDs, and I really am having a good time revisiting some of the discs. It even refreshes the look by getting them out of the dirty old cases. Ultimately I plan on repurposing a dresser drawer, turning it into a card catalog of sorts. A lot of work, but I figure it’s the most attractive and practical solution over all. Everything consolidated into one unit and made to look like another piece of furniture. Thanks again for the suggestion!

This comment makes me happy! I feel the same. Sleeving my movies has brought me closer to them.

I've been doing this for a few years now, it was either reduce the size by removing the cases or getting rid off a lot of my collection. Once I have them in the plastic sleeves I then put them in large plastic storage containers which lock shut and I put a few silica gel packets in the large boxes for a little extra protection. In the large plastic containers I can flick through the movies and pick something out to watch

After your first video, I went all out using Tarifold sleeves & Snap-N-Fold boxes. I can get about 50 movies per box. I do keep steel books, TV series & other collectables in their original packaging. It is definitely a space saver. Another benefit of placing the sleeves into a box protects against fading sunlight and dust.

Man this looks like a good solution for me. Most casts I am ok with getting rid of and slimming down the tower to make space for more media!

Thank you for this, Heath. I'm nearly in the same boat in terms of my collection overtaking my entire home. I missed the first 'Storage Hack' video so I am so glad you did an update. I know what my next purchase is gonna be. Even if I just use the Terafold for my DVDs, that'll save me a lot of space! Thanks again for this!

Hey Man. Thanks. I just ordered a few things. I got DVDs 📀 that are take space. Can’t wait to organise my shelf.

Been doing this now after getting stressed with my collection and all the movies piling up. I have a smaller curated shelf of movies I actually really like and then these sleeves in the tarifold box underneath for anything else. The box is a bit pricey for what it is, but seems to hold up really well and looks great and fits these exactly. Have 2 boxes now. Also was able to swap out cheap blue cases for the nicer clear ones on my shelf for any boutique release that got sleeved. Slip cases/rigid boxes are in storage if they came with the release so not losing out. Flipping through the box feels just like flipping through records in a crate. Also made custom sleeve inserts for the Bond collection as the cases that came in broke easily and barely held the discs in place and provided no info on the movies.

Thanks I jumped on these currently I have movies that don't fit on my shelves they are in boxes, now I have a way to store them and access them easily.

Great video, you've gave me ideas for storing my more than 2700 DVDs, blu-rays and 4K! But i don't want to fold covers so the multiple DVD one's seems good to me! I hope they can make these for blu-rays too. And yes a way to close the pouch would be good on these too.

I've used these sleeves on a few hundred of my DVDs so far, and they work great! For now I'm keeping them in a banker's box, which I've used as storage for a while, but I'm open to other/better options. I'm not sure I'm to the point of using them on any Blu-rays or 4Ks though. I definitely wouldn't damage the artwork/special packaging on anything. I'd just compromise, and keep the space on my shelves for those.

This is so GENIUS!! I’m so happy I watched this video.

Thnx for the video! I’ll be doing this with my Blu’s& 4k that have no slipcovers. This is a great alternative

I am already saving money to build an addition to my house, not stopping collecting any time soon.

The best ones are the double disc versions from T3L. Its the same as the quadruple one you show but has only two pockets so it works for storing single disc or double disc, and you get more in a pack It does save a hell of a lot of room and you don't need to fold the covers over. Even if you do, they don't get that hard crease that you're giving them for the single disc sleeves. Having said that, I do mostly use them for regular standard blurays or DVDs to make room for all the collector's editions I now get.

I‘ve been using those for a few years now and it truly saved my collection as well… i am also protecting with papersleeves… I actually put 2 blu rays in one of those… so you only keep the front cover visible but thats fine by me… so in a pack of 50 i fit 100 movies… works like magic…

does this method with the paper sleeves cause any disc damage or rot?

I jumped in on this after your first video and it has been great, I use it for Blu Rays and DVD's that do not have slip covers, making my collection on shelves look better and not to mention it freed up so much space. I can now credit Heath for how I store my complete collection, from the shelves to these sleeves and storage bags. Thank you!!! 👍👍😁😁👍👍

I sleeved all of my DVDs over the last couple years. Like you Heath my collection had invaded most of the house and something had to be done but I didn't want to get rid of any films. With streaming becoming the dominant viewing option who knows what titles are going to be available to watch in the future. I actually bought three 4-drawer cabinets from Ikea and put in some plexiglass dividers so I have four rows of sleeved DVDs in each drawer. I went from having walls and walls of DVDs to having everything (literally thousands of DVDs) currently in 4 drawers with another 4 to expand into. As for those Warner snappers I cut some and hated it afterwards and have been trying to replace them. I have kept all of those on a shelf together because as you said they don't fit in the sleeves. You can find many of them in newer non-snapper releases if you want to replace them but I'd advise not cutting because I lost some text and whatnot trimming them to fit. I too get that this isn't for everyone but this is really for the people who have truly run out of room. If you aren't out of room then don't worry about this but for those whose home and life was/is being overrun by physical media we needed a viable option and this really is it.

Thanks for sharing this Storage alternative! Also great Jim Lee X-Men shirt 👍

Thanks for sharing this Heath. These are excellent storage ideas. personally I'd always baulk at the idea of not having everything displayed in their cases..blah blah.. But, since I'm rapidly running out of room on the shelves and no more room for more shelves, I may have to start thinking about options like these.

@CerealAtMidnight

Yup, 2 years ago, I never would have done this. I came to this out of necessity. This method lets me prioritize and display the things that really matter, not every single title I own.

When CD/DVD/Blu-rays/4k Discs are purchased they are housed in a protective environment (Cases) for a reason: when seated in the center hub proper, the bottom of the disc is touching nothing - there is 1/16" or less of space between the disc bottom and the case for absolute no touching on anything, the top too, for those older 2-sided DVD discs. Slim/Ultra-Slim DVD cases or CD cases also offer the same protection, while saving more horizontal space. It will work! It will work!

@CerealAtMidnight

Ай бұрын

You probably also know that discs are stacked one on top of the other, dozens tall, when they're manufactured. The idea that nothing touches the playing surface isn't real. They're touched the moment they're made, and then frequently touched during packaging as well. This method is safe and saves more space than slim cases while also preserving the artwork, for those that care about such things.

@yjuopl-we8jp

Ай бұрын

@@CerealAtMidnight Good point. However when we receive the discs, they are smudge, finger-print, and scratch free in their safe and secure cases, artwork with side sleeve or booklet. Your viewers may prefer the alternate choice of 5mm wide ultra-slim cases which fit all discs. (Advertised as 4mm, but closer to 5mm). That's about 3 cases to 1, standard is 14mm wide. They also have literature clips on left panel to hold inserts. Purchased from LDBMart on Ebay. For the snapper Warner Brothers cases, I keep them as is because I like them, easier to open.

The hack that i use that has been helpful has been double or triple blu-ray cases. If you have 2 films say for example dead snow 1 and 2 you take the 2nd film and flip the artwork inside out and put it inside the case facing the opposite way from the other films artwork. So you can house 2 films in 1 bluray case.

Such a great space saving idea!!!

I just love keeping dvds in their original cases, looks much better especially when you have different coloured dvd cases for certain movies.

I dove into Tarifolds (DVDs and Blus) over the summer, along with some internal protective sleeves. I've really loved this for sleeving up my "burner" discs - anything that's got two or fewer discs, is not on something that looks like a boutique. So, anything from Criterion to Kino to Warner Archive still stays in the boxes for now. Same with all the 4Ks for now, even the bland, empty boxes. I also don't de-sleeve Warner snapper cases - and oddly enough, that makes these things (always the bane of my storage, going back twenty years) kind of a fetishized, collectible thing? I never thought I'd look at my Big Red One or Night Shift DVDs with the same eye I give to, like, Vinegar Syndrome or Impact. All of this might change in the future, of course, but for now it's helped me declutter about 1200 discs into cases. I have a Container Store near me and over the summer I picked up about five of these "media boxes" -- I like them fine, though the lids don't fit all that great. What's great is that they are rigid, stackable, and store about 300 or so (Tarifolded) discs per box. As I'm very much out of room, the stackability is preferred over the flexible/fabric and plastic crates for me.

I just left the snapper cases alone

I did that and I reduced size of my collection of 90%. really amazing. I check my dvd like vinyls in a music store, in some box from ikea.

I did this exact thing years ago and don't regret it, however only on discs with regular DVD & BR cases. Special editions and double disc sets remain as is - there are more than enough of those anyway.

Heath, for the WB snapper cases just use the DVD size poly bags. The snapper cardboard cover art fits in those and the rigidity of the cardboard makes up for the floppiness of the poly bag.

That's a great idea mate I'm placing an order today

I have a huge collection over 3000+ titles. I have 11 big Billy bookcases which could hold them all but I finally ran out of wall space for more shelves. My walls are covered with IKEA. Initially I was very much against sleeves but 3 months ago I decided to give it a shot - I really had no other option if I wanted to keep collecting and still maintain my movie shelves somewhat organized. So far it has worked out absolutely fabulous. If you use your imagination you can make your shelves look really awesome with sleeves. The key point is: you don't have to sleeve everything! For example I would never sleeve my Criterion Collection (which I own over 150 titles), but that doesn't mean I can't sleeve something else! Have some slipcover blurays here, some regular case blurays there, some special boxes between and then place sleeve boxes besides them - imo with imagination you can make your shelves look as good as any movie collection and you can save so much valuable shelf space at the same time. But the bad news is: if you are like me, constantly buying more and more, even sleeving won't save you forever. I guess at that point I really have to start thinking about curating :D

Appreciate the idea. This will help me consolidate the old DVD collection that is taking up space. Looks like Amazon is still cheaper even with the 15%, but I get that not everybody has Amazon. And it's only like a $2-3 difference. Tarifold seems pretty cool, my only complaint is they are charging $21 for a 10x6 "handmade" cardboard tray...lol...but a simple solution is just not buying it.

I stopped collecting almost 10 years ago because of lack space and I resorted to putting my DVDs in bulky Cd cases. It still hurts. I recently started collecting again Blu-ray’s/Steelbooks and I’m running out of space again. Thanks for the realistic solution for storage without sacrificing all that comes with the discs.

Its a very good idea .I grade my movies.If their grade A or B movies like Star Wars, Jaws etc etc they stay in original packing.Anything i grade C to D like Resident Evil or The Core i put in sleeves like you have.

Its not for me, but I do think alot of people could benefit from these sleeves. Basically, I got rid of most of my DVDs by buying expanded Blu-Ray/4K cases so I could fit the DVD disc in with the Blu-ray/4K discs. As to the DVD Cover/Insert/slip?? I kept them of course. Gallon bags from Wal-Mart work well. Just stuck them in drawers after bagging them. Not sure I really need to keep the DVD art, but for now I will.

Been doing the same for the past four years. It was the only reason why I kept my DVD collection instead of selling it.

I have the same problem but the solution I took for the past 15-20 years was to store my media in 7mm blu ray and dvd cases as opposed to the normal 14mm so I get 2-for-1 space wise. I shun the hi-swag collectibles and try to keep my collection content as disc-based as possible. I tried sleeves but the thing I didn't like about sleeves was that they're not readable from the spine. Just like you I don't have a solution for snapper-cases yet so I just leave them be for now.

Great solution will check into them later! thanks Heath

One question. What do you do with old plastic boxes? Do you keep them or toss them?

I'm thinking about this option, but not for my favorite movies, More for like a bunch of fine and funny comedies that was not good enough for my selective collection, but could be nice to have around and rewatch some in 5 years or 10. To give choice. Funny is always good. I always thinking about it this month after watching Eurotrip, Roadtrip and Role Models.

I do like this option but standard DVD covers have been bad for so many years now I no longer feel a need to keep the artwork. If there's a notable amount of special features printed on the back I'll cut that out and put it in with the disc.

While it's gonna trigger some - unless you are blessed with free space in your home (that your SO is willing to give up) - sleeves are my go to option. Nowadays if I find a blu ray release that isn't special, I just sleeve 'em. Currently have at least 50% of my blu rays in sleeves (collection over 2,000 at this point), to the point where I feel I have control over my collection now.

I like this idea. I am a former TCG (magic, yugioh) player. So I appreciate sleeves like these for my collection

I like the slieve idea. A bit spendy compared to a 500ct cd slieve. Still pretty slick w/ or w/o holes. ❤

After your first video I decided to go this route and I love it! I have two long bins that sit right next to my 7" records and now I can flip through my movie collection just like I do when I'm picking out a record to listen to. The boutique releases get to stay on the shelf, but everything else gets a sleeve. The space that physical releases take up are a big reason why so many people immediately ditched their collections when streaming took off (myself included), and now its basically a non issue. It seems like so many people in this niche base their entire personality around what is displayed on their shelf.

can you link to the long bins you put dvds and blus in please, would much prefer an open top box/container to a bag.

I already did this with all of my CDs and DVDs (except the bigger box-sets and WB snapper cases). I don't think I'll open up/fold the snapper cases, it's just too bulky as it is and won't work well in the sleeves IMO. You don't really save any extra space with the bulky box-sets (or much at all) so I won't do that for bigger box sets. I'm doing it with Blu-ray releases now and plan to order a lot more of the sleeves. I'm out of space, too. I'd rather have my limited editions/collectors editions on display and just sleeve the standard editions like this because of how much storage space I have. These really are a great solution, I find myself now flipping through them like the sleeves are records - using the bins designed for these.

I haven't crossed this bridge yet but I'm thinking about it, especially for my dvds. Are the dvd cases recyclable?

You sold me thanks for the info Heath.

Lovin' that xmen tee...great art

I went with this idea for my CDs years ago, as I simply despise the plastic jewel cases. So I bought a vinyl sleeve brand that I cannot recall, getting a large quantity of, and I felt they were good protection, fitting the artwork and disc. I found the most practical way to store them was buying the Really Useful Box product, which was just the right dimension to fit them in, plus they are very sturdy and stackable. But, as with the same scenario with DVDs and Blu-rays, I would suggest using index cards with tabs, that are alphabetized, as you will need some such way to more easily access them, as you have no spine of which to view the titles. I have done this, and would consider trying a similar arrangement with my Blu-rays (I no longer have DVDs) and Tarifold looks to be the right product to do that. I think organizing them in binders might be another good way to find your titles easier to find.

I really dig those glasses man.

Remind me, what do you do with all your various empty cases? Or you probably don’t get rid of much but down the road if you don’t have the case, will anyone want it in that condition? Will those sleeves also hold the slip covers? How expensive is the postage from that company?

I use this method as well. In my point of view, the main problem of this method of plastic case is the possibility of mold, because is so tight and with no air flow.

Totally unrelated to the topic of your video but where did you get that awesome hat ?

With the snapper cases from the late 90's, all you need to do is remove the plastic. Then place the disc inside a disc sleeve and place that disc sleeve back into the snapper (which is now just cardboard).

You can buy sleeves for dvds with their cases that are a little wider that the snappers can fit into without cutting the covers. They are not as good quality but at least you wont be cutting covers

Color scan (and save/back-up) any that you feel like cutting. Color reprint/copy and cut the reprint. Store the original in safe area.

I got rid of all my cases four years ago and when I moved house. Never looked back.

Is it absolutely essential to put those paper sleeves over the discs before you put them in?

Do you think the DVD sleeves would work for Blu-Ray? I just think it would be better financially to buy the DVD sleeves since they come with 100.

I’ve been using sleeves, first on CDs, since the late 90’s. There’s no other way.

I've been prioritizing cases without slipcovers first, but I'll probably be starting on those soon. The slipcovers will probably go in a box because they don't fit inside the sleeves and the sleeves are too large to fit in the slipcovers. Maybe I should sell some of them so they're bringing some joy to people.

they should make a version with a printed blue or black (or even red) strip at the top so it still has that look of the bluray/4k(/hddvd) cases

After your first video I ordered some of those, too... I like it very much for my DVD's (and I'm on the verge of converting about 3000 Discs to free up some space...) not so much for the Blu-rays, though... kind of feel the look not quite so "uniform". I'm still looking for a clever way to store the sleeves in Boxes, that will fit the shelf. (The cardboard-trays vom T3L are sadly way overpriced...)

I like the idea. Need to think about it more at least for the movies. I think the cd sleeves would be better in my eyes if you did not have to flip down the back tray sides. Maybe they will make them a tad wider to make the back paper lay flat instead of folding the sides down.

Great video. Thanks.

Since your first video 9 months ago, i searched something that worked for me. I found that Magazine backing board with bag (just like the comics) works great as i can lay flat the dvd insert and i buy a cheap cd comfort holder for the discs. They go into a magazine box that you can stack. Bulkier yes, but cheap and convenient for me :)

I mentioned this and been thinking of doing the same thing, probably using silver age bags and boards.

I use silver boards for my comics and there was a reason why I went for the Magazines one. I want to think that it didn't fit properly@@kurganwins

I wonder if the disc might cause ringwear on the paper sleeve over time.

I had my disc in disc binders and the discs were not in good shape after years they had ware that doesn't happen with regular cases

Could you do a video tutorial on sleeving the Warner Bros. DVD cardboard packaging, I have a copy of Pleasantville I got from Goodwill Bins I'd like to sleeve.

They don't fit in sleeves unless you cut the cardboard, which is what I do.
